A former 19th-century manse transformed into Scotland's most sophisticated Highland hideaway. Museum-quality art meets Scandinavian design in this retreat overlooking Kyle of Tongue, where intimate tastes good.
Located in remote Tongue village (population 300) - nearest airport is Inverness, 2 hours away by car. The converted steading studios around the courtyard are the rooms to book, offering more privacy and the coveted fire pit access.
Dinner and breakfast are included - no à la carte options, but the daily-changing menu is - um wow - and the kitchen was great about making substitutions for dietary restrictions. The house operates more like staying with sophisticated friends than a traditional hotel. Book well in advance - there's almost nothing comparable in the Scottish Highlands. Note that in the main House & Studios: Children under 10 years old are not permitted — this place has a very adult vibe.
Fancy the VIP treatment? Book with us, and we’ll make it happen. Early check-in, late check-out? Sorted. Free breakfast? Of course. F+B voucher? We’ll work on it. Room upgrade? Probably.
It’s all about who you know, and with our FORA partnership, you’re always in the inner circle. We’ll confirm what perks we’ve arranged before you ever pay.
Remote Highland village overlooking Kyle of Tongue and Ben Loyal, with ancient Castle Varrich ruins visible from the property - pure Scottish drama without tourist buses.

Highland Cuisine Meets Nordic Sophistication
Forget everything you think you know about Scottish hotel food. The daily-changing 3-4 course dinner menu showcases local game, fresh seafood, and foraged ingredients elevated with serious technique. There are no menus - just trust the kitchen to deliver something extraordinary each night, which they did; big time. The wine’s natural and biodynamic and complements, rather than competes, with the Highland ingredients. Breakfast includes homemade bread, preserves, and cooked-to-order dishes. In warmer months, dinner moves to the heated courtyard for barbecue under the stars - Scottish dining doesn't get more romantic or memorable.
