At The Bonnie Wee Bothy, sustainability runs deep - it's in our roots, quite literally. Situated on a family farm, our commitment to eco-conscious choices extends throughout our operations.

Even better, one of our family members transforms garden cuttings and organic materials into nutrient rich compost right here on the farm. Intrigued? Check out our website for informative video! And for every stay booked, we're proud to plant a tree on the farm, our way of giving back to the land that sustains us.
