The Wellness Retreat, part of our exclusive Adore Scotland countryside collection, is a breath-taking B-listed retreat under two hours from Edinburgh. This historic property, built in 1820 and now transformed into a stylish and luxurious haven, offers guests an exceptional blend of heritage, comfort, and natural beauty. The interiors have been thoughtfully designed with premium finishes, while the original features retain a timeless charm.
Surrounded by 34 acres of private estate grounds and set within its own secluded one-acre walled garden, the house invites guests to immerse themselves in Scotland’s great outdoors. From the tranquil sounds of a nearby burn and cascading waterfalls to the majestic mountains and the shores of Loch Lomond, nature is right on your doorstep.
Unwind in the outdoor hot tub, enjoy a barbecue under the stars, or relax indoors with modern touches like a wood-burning stove, Xbox, Sky TV, and Sonos sound system. With optional extras such as a private chef, butler service, and bespoke activity packages, Wellness Retreat offers an unforgettable escape designed for relaxation, adventure, and connection.
The Edinburgh Address Ltd manages bookings on behalf of the Property Owner. The property owner provides the accommodation.
