Glenuaig Lodge on Glencarron In a fabulous remote six mile glen with a river running through it and surrounded by expansive views and Munros (mountains over 3000ft) all you might hear is the babble of the burns and the roar of the stags with the silent golden eagles soaring above. Paradise for walking, wildlife watching, fishing and deer stalking or exploring the Scottish Highlands or just relaxing away from it all. This is a unique experience of beautiful isolation and luxury in the wild. A very green experience - the luxury in this very remote place is supplied through renewable energy from a micro-hydro-electricity generator and there are full conventional backup systems too. The unassuming stone exterior blends in with the surrounding Munros but hides a stunning interior beautifully designed to be in sympathy with its origins and location and fully equipped for total comfort. Whilst Glenuaig Lodge looks like a wee cottage it is a large four bedroom house (one double, 3 twin and a double sofa bed in the second sitting room) with two sitting rooms, a dining room and a large kitchen, victorian style bathroom and a shower room plus ground floor WC. It is well equiped with dishwasher, washing mashine, dryer, drying room, microwave, three conventional ovens; TV, DVD, CD. It was originally designed for Victorian gentlemen and their servants to lodge whilst stalking on the remote hills of the Estate, long before the advent of 4x4s. In few places on earth will you feel so at peace with the natural world. 4x4 or hire of one essential. Discount hire information available. 		In the atmospheric Glenuaig, valley of red deer and eagles, a unique experience of isolation and luxury.  Remote Victorian hunting lodge, with its own micro-hydro electricity. , 30 minutes drive on a track into the mountains away from all civilization.  Beautifully modernised in period style: 4 twin/double bedrooms, bathroom, shower-room, drawing room, second sitting room (with double sofa bed), dining room, WC and fabulous kitchen with dishwasher etc. TV, DVD, CD.

Suffolk
Groton Manor Farm <p>Groton Manor Farm is set in 3.5 acres of its own paddocks and garden with woodland to the west of the property.  We have recently converted old farm buildings, a former piggery, stables and cattle shed into a unique living space. Therefore if you are interested in staying with us I like to think of you as our guests as a stay with us will mean you will be our temporary neighbours. Now to a description of the property available to you. There is a spacious entrance hall that leads to the kitchen, dining/sitting area, a stunning 40ft by 15ft room with exposed oak and elm beams. Another door off the entrance hall takes you to the family bathroom, while yet another door takes you to the piggeries. The fully fitted kitchen has a range cooker, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge and microwave. A large dining room table sits eight comfortably. The sitting area has two large sofas, an armchair and a squashy footstool providing plenty of places to relax with a view over the pond, double glazed doors take you on to the terraced walkway. There is also 37 inch flat screen TV (FreeView). At the west end of the sitting room a door leads you to the master bedroom suite with dressing room (can double as a nursery room) bedroom with king size bed, with adjoining bathroom with a shower, WC, washbasin and heated towel rail. You can lie in bed and see the sunrise from the east through the floor to ceiling double glazed doors that provide access to the terraced walkway. The piggeries provide three delightful bedrooms; one with a king-size bed, the middle bedroom with two single beds and the end bedroom has a double bed with outdoor access to the terrace overlooking the pond. As they were former piggeries they lead one room in to the other, which are perfect for families with young children. The family bathroom has a large double ended bath, wash basin, WC and heated towel rail. The exposed elm beam in the bathroom is charred black from a fire that swept through the old dairy in the early part of the twentieth century. According to an old newspaper cutting (circa 1918) one of the last horse-drawn fire engines used in Suffolk was seen charging up Butchers Lane to put out the fire at Groton Manor Farm. The fire engine would have pumped water from the pond to extinguish the flames which would have been seen for miles as we are positioned at one of the highest points in this area of Suffolk. On a beautiful clear day it is a great spot to paint as endorsed by my father-in-law who is a keen amateur artist. 		Groton Manor Farm dates from the fifteenth century, the area on which the house stands has been farmed since Roman times. The spacious 4 bedroom accommodation features high ceilings and is furnished for your comfort and enjoyment. Visit fascinating old historic towns of Suffolk.
