Linnet is a spacious and welcoming three-bedroom lodge sleeping up to six guests, set deep within the wide-ranging grounds of an exceptional Scottish estate. The lodge looks out across open lawns and countryside that form part of a much larger, carefully preserved landscape, giving guests a genuine sense of space, privacy and immersion in nature. Staying here means having the freedom to enjoy expansive grounds, established gardens and peaceful open spaces as an extension of the home itself, rather than simply as a backdrop.
Inside, the lodge features an open and sociable layout that brings the living, dining and kitchen areas together. Underfloor heating and an open fireplace provide warmth and comfort throughout the year, while the fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare meals and gather as a group. Each of the three bedrooms benefits from its own ensuite bathroom, offering privacy and convenience for friends or family sharing the space. The atmosphere is relaxed rather than formal, encouraging easy days and unhurried evenings after time spent exploring the estate’s paths and grounds.
Outdoor living is an integral part of the experience at Linnet. A large open garden provides space for children to play freely and adults to unwind, with open views that reinforce the feeling of being part of a vast, tranquil setting. An outdoor bath offers a peaceful place to relax beneath open skies, while garden seating allows guests to take in the changing light and quiet rhythm of the estate. With its balance of comfort, freedom and access to an outstanding landscape, Linnet offers a memorable retreat for families and groups seeking a slower pace in an exceptional setting.
Linnet sits within extensive private grounds on Scotland’s southwest coast, part of a remarkable estate defined by space, nature and a strong sense of freedom. Open lawns, woodland and landscaped areas surround the lodge, creating a safe and engaging environment for families, where children can explore and play while adults enjoy the calm of the setting. The estate’s scale is immediately apparent and plays a key role in the relaxed, unhurried feel of each stay.
Just steps from the lodge is a large garden maze, a much-loved feature that adds a playful and memorable element for younger guests. This unique feature, combined with gentle paths and open spaces, makes it easy to spend full days close to home, enjoying family walks, scooter rides and outdoor games without the need to travel far. The grounds invite exploration at a pace that suits all ages.
The coastline lies within easy reach and offers a contrasting landscape of beaches, sea views and coastal paths. These unspoilt stretches of shore are ideal for fresh-air adventures, wildlife spotting and relaxed walks by the water, adding variety to days spent on the estate. The wider area is known for its natural beauty and slower rhythm, making it well suited to family breaks away from busy destinations.
Nearby villages are a short drive away and provide convenient access to cafés, pubs, small shops and everyday amenities. Together, the estate setting and surrounding area give Linnet a location that combines space, outdoor features and access to nature, creating an ideal base for families seeking a relaxed and enriching countryside stay.
