    The Lodge has a supply of backpacks, binoculars, water bottles and wellington boots for guests if you’d prefer not to bring your own.

The easiest international airport to travel to is Inverness (INV) in Northern Scotland. From here, our retreat property is approximately 90 minutes drive. We also recommend the Caledonian Express Train which travels overnight from Kings Cross to Inverness. 

Some may choose to share a rental car for convenience, but also our hosts can arrange pick ups and drop offs from the airport or local hotels.

If you are planning an extended stay in Scotland with a rental car or using other transportation, the other international airports are Glasgow and Edinburgh.

The retreat begins with dinner on the start day of the retreat and ends with breakfast on the last day of the retreat.

We will start collecting travel plans from participants upon booking.
