Glen Dye Cottages

Glen Dye Cabins & Cottages

Glen Dye is a private estate of around 15,000 acres and our design-led luxury cabins and cottages sit slap bang at its centre, surrounded by wilderness, forest and moorland on the banks of the River Dye. The location is fabled; watched over by the massive granite tor of Clachnaben and at the northern end of the Cairn o Mount mountain pass.

It’s wild, beautiful and very, very quiet.

With wood-fired hot tubs and saunas, endless beautiful walks, great food, jaw-dropping scenery and super comfortable beds, this is the escape you’re looking for.

“Probably the coolest place to stay in The Highlands.”

The Times

“The cabins bring travellers into the great outdoors – but not without a luxury or two.”

Lonely Planet

“No people. Only birds, crystal clear streams and awe-inspiring trees.”

Sandi Toksvig, Extraordinary Escapes, Channel 4

From large cottages for big groups through to cosy boltholes for two, as well as a superb seasonal campsite and luxury B&B, Glen Dye has everything for everyone, and their dog.
