step back in time to a scottish medieval barony

The estate is where Robert the Bruce and the wildlife of his royal hunting forest are vibrantly brought to life.

Medieval history with barons and pretzels along with the secluded magical landscape and exceptional diversity of conservation wildlife make this a completely unique location in central Scotland.

If your trip to Scotland includes breathing in the scent of Norway spruce pine needles or climbing Scottish hills we’re the location for you. While staying in exquisite designer Scottish contemporary accommodation Brucefield Estate in central Scotland is luxury ecotourism where contemporary & sustainable design are combined with conservation & wildlife.

Amongst the 1000 acres, semi-ancient woodlands of Scots Pine, oak and birch you’ll find red squirrels, pine martens and a whole natural world with many conservation species. Our eco cabins or lodges, known as Schenbothies, are the perfect forest TinyHomes or Tiny House, fully insulated and with triple glazing, as well as your own gorgeously tiled bathroom (with underfloor heating). Built completely of timber, in the forest, using the finest artisanal carpentry skills to create a designer woodland space that will leave you utterly refreshed and recuperated.

Food delivered to your cabin or for a special occasion, try out one of our woodland trails with birch discs and red ribbons leading to a firepit and picnic.
