Sitheil is a beautifully designed off-grid bothy located on the peaceful shores of Loch Nell, just 6 miles from Oban on Scotland’s west coast. Built with striking black Arakabe clay walls flecked with golden straw, this handcrafted cabin blends bold architecture with the raw beauty of the surrounding landscape.
Designed for two guests, Sitheil offers a secluded and immersive escape into nature. Large windows frame expansive views across the loch, and your private deck comes complete with an outdoor shower, fire pit, and wood-fired pizza oven. Inside, you’ll find a cosy wood-burning stove, a fully equipped kitchenette, and thoughtfully chosen interiors designed for comfort and simplicity.
This off-grid experience is fully powered by renewable energy and includes a locally sourced ‘Farm to Bothy’ breakfast, delivered to your door. For lunch and dinner, you can choose from a range of optional Bothy Provisions or book a special eight-course wild dining experience available select nights of the week.
Accessible only by boat, buggy, or a 1.5km walk, Sitheil is a true escape — perfect for those seeking a remote cabin stay in Scotland with a focus on slow living, nature, and sustainability.
Whether you’re exploring ancient stone circles nearby, paddling on the loch, or relaxing by the campfire, Sitheil offers a unique and memorable stay in one of Scotland’s most tranquil locations.
