Welcome to Blue Sky Lodges, two bespoke luxury, timber-clad holiday homes occupying a stunning elevated location, with panoramic views and peaceful surroundings. Set in idyllic countryside near the hamlet of Galcantray, these fabulous lodges are just 20 minutes from Inverness Airport and three miles from the pretty village of Cawdor making them the perfect location to explore the Highlands or escape for some peace and relaxation.
Our Lodges are set on private Farmland and are run by a fifth generation farming family. Their location is perfect for venturing into the Highlands wealth of attractions, breath taking scenery and outdoor activities. The superior lodges are housed in a gated area with ample free parking. Both Lodges have a large decked area with a Sauna, Hot Tub and full wheel chair access. They also have swing seats, picnic benches and stone built BBQ with pizza oven. Making them the perfect place to relax and soak up the most incredible views while listening to your favorite music surrounded by rolling fields, farm animals, wildlife and woodland.
This picturesque and historic village of Cawdor has much to offer visitors who will appreciate the quiet ambiance of the village it is located just 2 miles for the lodges. Cawdor is famous for its 'Macbeth' connection with its 17th century Castle that is still home to the Cawdor family today. There is also a first class Cawdor Tavern boasting modern Scottish food with flair accompanied by a first class choice of wines, whiskeys and ales. There are many walks around Cawdor in lovely woods adjacent to Cawdor Castle. There is a guide to four short strolls, available from the castle; this walk takes a wide circle to follow the courses of two broad burns and have a look at their spectacular gorges. The woodland is mainly deciduous, with stately old beeches much in evidence, each with lots of room to show off its grandeur. The walk is an excellent family one (dogs are discouraged). Paths are good (with one muddy section). The walk can be combined with a visit to the castle The city of Inverness, known as The metropolitan Capital of the Highlands, is the gateway to the countless delights of the Highlands of Scotland. Of particular note is the legendary Loch Ness.
