Take a look at our Wood Hatch Lodge! It's a 2 bedroom property with a vintage, rustic feel, with an open-plan lounge/kitchen featuring a cosy log burner.

There’s a stunning live edged dining table, snuggly sofa area with a flat screen TV, a well-equipped kitchen with conventional cooker and microwave as well as coffee beans and grinder for the cafetière, fridge with freezer compartment, and a bathroom with over bath shower.

Our favourite features in The Woodhatch are the stunningly designed, solid Douglas Fir “cubes” - this serve as seats, coffee tables and foot stools all in one, and easily glide across the floor to suit your needs.

You can’t help but fall in love with the driftwood light feature above your head, giving a warm cosy glow to those evenings spent enjoying this wee snug! 🥰

We are so in love with this handsome chap from Henry Says.

He always gives a warm welcome when coming into his Lodge!

The lovely Honor at HenrySays has crafted 14 bespoke and handmade pieces for us here at Ancarraig - she is supremely talented!

I happen to know she does the most wonderful commission work, especially of Doggos (her company is named after her very own dog), so if you wanted a unique and totally cherishable gift for someone, she is the lady to talk to! 💝

Just one of the incredible draws of the Highlands in the autumn and winter months is this - the Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights. Here she is last night in all her glory!

We are blessed with super dark skies here at Ancarraig, which makes us perfect for some star gazing from your balcony - with the cosy log burner waiting for you inside of course!

☀️We’ve had such beautiful sunny weather here this week, so much so that wee Magnus has had to camp out in the shade to cool off!

Has it been hot where you are today?

When visiting us this year, you’ll notice we have traded the mower for Mother Nature in much of the grounds.

A mixture of beautiful native plants such as heather and scabiosa are blended with vibrant bursts of colour, curated by our resident horticultural specialist, Allan.

We are honoured to play host to hundreds of bees and butterflies, as well as rare dragonflies who live at our lochan.

This year we have a bounty of beans, kale, potatoes, sage, lemon balm and more - just come and find Allan who loves to give his harvest to our guests to try!

Ancarraig truly is a natural haven, more now than ever before in its 50 year history.

Here’s to the next 50 years of serving Scotland’s creatures.
