It has been in continuous use since then, latterly as a farm house. In 2022, we revitalised the building and reinstated its original purpose. The coach house now has five bedrooms and three bathrooms. It can be occupied by up to five different groups or individuals as a true B&B, or by one large group.

The Coach House is available for exclusive-use bookings on weekends, while weekdays are available for individual room bookings.

This large upstairs room includes a king-sized bed as well as a bunk bed and as such makes an excellent choice for a family (or a group of four friends on a budget). Either way, you’re going to have fun here. All of the beds have sumptuous mattresses and wonderful bedding. This room is at the front of the house and so has terrific views of the woodland and hill to the south. As with our properties across the estate, it’s finished with great art and an eclectic mix of furniture.

Oyster Catcher shares a bathroom with shower and loo with the Curlew room.

You’ll share a large, perfectly equipped kitchen and dining/sitting room with a jukebox, a sofa and plenty of other seating. The three bathrooms are shared and allocated to particular rooms.

We have filled The Coach House with a revolving selection of important modern art which will initially include work by artists such as Peter Doig, Patrick Caulfield, Mali Morris, Ellie Davies, Michael Craig-Martin and more. You’ll also find a small library of carefully selected books on nature and food to browse.

There is an outside cooking and dining area, a wood-fired hot tub and a large garden.

Breakfast is included with your stay. Further groceries are also available to pre-order.

You will have access to The Glen Dye Arms, our BYOB pub complete with a roaring log fire and a record player, and also to Garden Camp, our new shared recreation area. Here you will find some classic outdoor games, and a cozy indoor space with a wood-burning stove for rainy day activities. You can collect seasonal vegetables from the vegetable garden, subject to availability and the growing season, and eggs from our own hens. The Glen Dye General Stores is our tiny but well-stocked shop, where you will find local produce and excellent souvenirs as well as more prosaic stuff like dog poo bags etc.

If you haven’t already done so, don’t forget to book a private session in our state of the art electric sauna down at the Discovery and Adventure Centre. There’s a cold shower or cold water dip tanks there too, to complete the experience.

Description

“After dinner, we toasted the marshmallows, drank red wine and listened to Fleetwood Mac on their vinyl player. They had a great record collection and this whole experience was the ultimate Sunday night.”

- Tatler Magazine

Guest Book

A darkened pathway between large thick trees and hedges leading up to one of the cottages in Glen Dye

– Homes and Interiors

“Glen Dye is relaxed about walkers, cyclists and runners, and positively encourages foraging, embracing Scotland’s right-to-roam rules.
Taking on the terrain is welcomed, whether that’s climbing mountains or a gentle stroll to fire up the hot tub.”

– Esquire

“The North Lodge, which sleeps six, offers all the comforts of a very well-appointed home — vinyl collection, Japanese kitchen knives, unlimited firewood, a library of books — but if guests feel the call of the wild, they can venture through the trees to the river cabin, which has a wood-fired hot tub and Big Green Egg barbecue.”
