Bothies & retreats

Small buildings for escape, staying and slowing down. These might be private places of retreat, guest accommodation, or distinctive hospitality spaces, but the aim is always to create something simple, characterful and rooted in its setting. We are especially experienced in resolving the practical and design challenges that come with rural, sensitive and hard-to-access sites.

Have a site, an idea, or an unusual brief?

Whether you know exactly what you want or are starting with a rough sketch, a place, or simply a feeling you want to create, we would love to hear from you.

Tell us a little about the site, intended use, location and timescale, and we will take it from there.
