Cabins in Loch Lomond

Why book a cabin in Loch Lomond We don’t know about you, but Monday morning commutes can often inspire daydreams about rural life in some mountain escape – something Canada-esque. A place where you have to split firewood, follow well-worn paths into the shade of soaring trees, and come back to a cabin to rest snugly in the wilderness beyond. You’ll find creatures here you’ll have a hard time finding anywhere else, from golden eagles to deer, to otters.

Who we are Good question – every time you do anything, eat out, buy your weekly shopping, watch a film, stay some place – you’re voting with your money. We’re part family owned, part employee owned and part charitable trust. We pay special attention to not just environmental standards, but the working conditions our staff have. Our aim is to improve every step of travel, from the lives of the people who curate the spaces, to those visiting, to the people who make the area their home.

Why choose glamping? Any day of the year you can stay somewhere underwhelming. There’s no shortage of places to go that’ll blur into the humdrum showreel of places you visited, but didn’t see, soundscapes you listened to through the mirror-imaged walls of identical places – but didn’t hear. Glamping puts you in, not on a space – immersed in everything you went in search of. You can stay somewhere any day of the year, go live somewhere for a stay that’s unforgettable.

Can travel ever be good for the environment? At the moment? Good is a relative term. As it goes, glamping is a great alternative to regular travel and tourism. There’s a higher precedent on renewable energy, and ecologically sound practises, given their remote location. They’re also often off the beaten track, and away from the droves of travellers contributing to overtourism. Travel’s unavoidable entanglement with carbon generation makes any travel an issue we all ought to be mindful of, but choosing a company that’s working to mitigate what it can is a great first step.
