Stay · River Cabins

In harmony with nature

Floor-to-ceiling glass, a deep tub and a river we brought back to life.

A rewilding project

We brought the river back.

Then we built somewhere

to sit and watch it.

Set beside a rewilded waterway, the cabins are built to restore both the land and the people who stay in them.

Inside

Natural textures, nothing between you and the river

Panoramic glass, a deep soaking tub that looks out over the water and your own seat outside. Breakfast is delivered each morning.

The layout

Drawn by the Finn Lough design team. Not to scale.

Designed by NMD Studio and Think Liminal

Built to give something back

We wanted to restore an area of former agricultural land and help expand our ancient woodland.

We then collaborated with Adam at Think Liminal who helped bring the cabin concept we had to life, introducing some incredible pieces of furniture integrated into the bold black panelling and stone floors we wanted to keep the focus on the outside.

Stay, spa & savour

Your room, a private two hours on the Elements Trail and dinner at Lasair. Leave and talk about it for weeks.

Good to know

About the River Cabins

Is the river safe to swim in?

Not the one in front of the room, it's not deep sometimes runs dry in summer...but you're a 500m walk to the lake where you can sauna and swim to your heart's content.

What time is check-in and check-out?

Check in from 3.30pm, check out by 11.30am.

How much do I pay to book?

A deposit secures your stay when you book direct. The rest is due a month before you arrive.
