Accommodation specialist One Off Places is thrilled to announce the launch of an off grid eco-luxe one bedroom boathouse bothy, set in a remote lochside location in the Scottish Highlands on a private estate high above the conservation village of Tomich. The bothy welcomed its first guests in August 2023.
One of a collection of unique stays in Scotland in the One Off Places portfolio, the bothy has a private hot tub, as well as a private fishing loch and a boat, offering catch and release fly fishing for brown trout. Inside the furnishings are bespoke and high quality, and both the rooms lead to a wraparound lochside terrace and have spectacular views of the surrounding landscape.
As eco credentials go, the boathouse ticks all the boxes. It is totally off grid with a wind turbine and solar panels supplying electricity to the property's appliances. The estate holds a gold award in the Green Tourism Business Scheme and even has its own hydro electric facility.
Tabitha Symonds, founder of One Off Places, says: `As romantic retreats go, this one is pretty special, boasting uninterrupted views of the rugged landscape and all the wildlife it has to offer in this spectacularly remote part of the Scottish Highlands`.
The boathouse is a heavenly spot for walkers and cyclists as it's positioned in the middle of the rural Highlands, with just hills, moorland, forest and lochs between it and the west coast some 30 miles away. Guests can enjoy exploring the estate on foot, as well as the adjoining RSPB nature reserve.
A self catering stay costs from £1600 per week (minimum stay 3 nights). For more information see https://www.oneoffplaces.co.uk/the-boathouse-bothy.
