Description
We are the most isolated Inn on the British mainland, with 4 letting rooms, camping allowed on the lawn and many visitors for food and drink during the summer season. The Inn was gifted to the Scottish Episcopal Church in 2017 and continues to be ran as a place to provide a warm welcome to visitors from around the world. We are open to all. We offer our guests a homely welcoming retreat within a remote location. Visitors come on bicycles, by foot, horse, car and campervan. We serve home made food all day and the bar is open from 11am till late. We have a shared dining experience for all our resident guests and we join them for dinner when possible. Functioning off-grid with generators, solar panels and water from the surrounding hills, we are truly a remote retreat.
