8 acres hosted by Alison F.

2 glamping pitches

Our Huts are located within the Moss Wood area of Bute Forest - a mixed birch and alder wood that extends up the hillside to the west of the A886 that connects the Rhubodach Ferry to Port Bannatyne and Rothesay. Moss Wood has a range of facilities. Park on the shore-side where the coast can be enjoyed or at the main entrance, and take a walk up through Moss Wood along the Poetry Trail. A steep walk in places, the Poetry Trail is a loop punctuated with places to stop and read, to stop and think. Read nature poetry from throughout the ages, stop at the Blether Stane, or taking the spur to the Viewing Point back south across the Kyles. Moss Wood connects to the West Island Way – take the Poetry Trail and the spur to the Viewing Point – and then take the Stag’s Trod further up (steeply) till you reach the West Island Way. From there, head south towards Port Bannatyne or north along the boundary of the Community Forest. From the viewing point, you can also explore interesting heritage features such as the old WW2 bunker, kayak shelter, Balnakailly settlement, and the SSSI oak woodland.

Our secluded Huts are a 5 minute walk up a sloping wooded track. Each Hut is nestled into the hillside and has private decking where you can enjoy being surrounded by nature with spectacular views over the Firth of Clyde. The Huts are modelled on historic Charcoal burning structures, part of the history of this forest. You can enjoy walks throughout the forest, towards the famous west island way which loops around Bute or head into Port Bannatyne or Rothesay if you need some civilisation!

Magical Stay on Bute

With kids ·

Isle of Bute Forest Hut - Birch

I can’t say enough positive things about this little spot of paradise. The huts were beautifully clean and so well loved. My daughter and I were cozy as anything after a day on the water and I’ve already been asked when we can go back - hopefully very soon!!
