Recharge

A simple, stylized black outline of a tree

With its amazing views and serene setting in Abernethy Forest, this space evokes calm; a place to unwind and let go. Enjoy any of our well-being facilities during your stay with us for that extra feeling of rest and relaxation.

Sauna at the water’s edge, splash off from the spring. This hand-built clean electric sauna for up to four people is tucked into the forest beside the Fhuarain burn.

The Well-Being Studio

This is where some really special local practitioners bring their skills.

Massage, yoga and much more. See out what’s on when you come…

The moor

Of course the biggest draw is just … where we are. Wander the forest and the moor on your doorstep, soak in the mountain views, marvel at the mosses and the ants.

What if you did this all day?
