Ralston Bothy is a cosy wooden lodge tucked away in the Scottish Highlands. This snug retreat sits in Aberdeenshire, offering guests a proper escape from everyday life. Total privacy guaranteed with its secluded location and not another soul for miles. Perfect if you want to get away from your mother-in-law's constant questions about when you'll have kids.
The surrounding landscape is wild Scottish countryside at its best. Hills roll as far as the eye can see, with walking paths starting right from your doorstep. Fishing spots dot the nearby rivers where you can catch your dinner (or at least pretend you know what you're doing).
