Re-imagining the Bothy Experience

We have ensured that the unique structure of each bothy connects with the surrounding nature, making them as striking as they are sensitive to the environment they stand in. Intimate, thoughtful, warm and uniquely Scottish. Our bothies have been finished with the highest quality natural furnishings, fabrics and products for rough luxury like no other. Inverlonan represents the very best of Scottish craftsmanship, artisan makers and producers. Explore, experience and reconnect at Inverlonan. Book your stay now.

The Bothies 

Three unique structures Uisge (Oosh-Ka), Beatha (Bay-Ah) and Sitheil (She-Eel) are set on secret patches of wilderness. The original two bothies take their names from the Gaelic ‘Uisge Beatha’ which means ‘Water of Life’, a fitting title for two remote shelters that nestle between ancient oaks and peer over the spectacular waters of Loch Nell. Sitheil naturally translates as ‘Peaceful’. All the bothies have a private deck, open fire pit and outdoor wood-fired pizza oven. You'll also have a private eco-toilet and outdoor shower with a serious view. Trust us, there is something magical about heating your water on a stove and bathing outdoors. If you’re feeling adventurous you can also hop into a double kayak or explore the loch on a paddleboard or sit-on kayak. Wild swim, hike, fish and explore. The bothy is just the beginning.

The Inverlonan Way - Our Philosophy 

Explore, Experience and Reconnect. Inverlonan is all about taking things slow, getting back to basics, getting back to nature. Disconnecting to reconnect in a wild luxury escape. Wild wellness is central to our ethos. Cook up a feast on your outdoor fire pit with the very best local produce delivered straight to your bothy. Rejuvenate with a wild swim. Stroll through the spectacular scenery. Sip away on a sundowner whilst relaxing in front of a log fire. Turn off the outside world and enjoy.

Sauna

A lochside, wood-burning sauna, designed just for us and for the exclusive use of our guests is available for half-day rental. Steam, dip, steam repeat. What not to like?
