Kilchoan Estate

The Kilchoan Estate in Western Scotland, on the wild Knoydart Peninsula has lived quietly with us for years.

It is a place we have walked, argued over, fallen in love with, and patiently brought back to life - never in a hurry, and certainly not to create one more “luxury experience” for people too busy to enjoy it.

Like Dunton Hot Springs, Kilchoan is, above all, a meeting of deep stillness and wild beauty, and we feel more like its custodians than its owners.

Our estate stretches over thirteen thousand acres of Highland wilderness: mountains and lochs, forests, the sea, and horizons that take their time. It is a place made for immersion rather than bustle - for nature, for quiet, and for the rare freedom of unhurried time together.

This first summer, we open with:

Five private fully outfitted cottages, from two to five bedrooms, sporting kitchens, lovely hearths and fireplaces
A Spa with Sauna and Yoga Studio devoted to restoration and wellbeing
The Long House, where superb meals are taken slowly and in good company
Wide open space for walking, hiking, cycling, kayaking, and simply being present in the landscape

Kilchoan is intentionally small, personal, and unspoiled. It is a place to arrive without an agenda, to slow down, and to reconnect with nature, with those you love, and with yourself.

Stays at Kilchoan are fully inclusive - from meals and wines to spirits, and ferry transfers. We are happy to say that reservations are finally open from 1 June onward.

We would be delighted to welcome you among our very first guests.

All the best,
Katrin & Christoph Henkel
