At Monachyle Mhor, our story begins and continues on the land. Nestled in the wild beauty of the Scottish Highlands, our luxury boutique hotel began life as a working farm and remains one to this day. The rhythms of nature, heritage, and animal life continue to shape everything we do.

Running daily from 10 am, our immersive farm tours are open to both hotel guests and day visitors. You’ll meet our friendly animals and get up close with life on the farm. All of our animals are gentle and well-handled, and enjoy meeting visitors of all ages.

We did the farm tour this week with our children and loved it! Magda and Oksana were so knowledgeable and you could tell they loved everything about the animals and the farm. They made sure to involve our children and give them the opportunity to interact with all the animals. I would recommend it to anyone.

What a magical place! Stayed in the treehouse which we all loved, so quirky & surrounded by nature. The whole dining experience was amazing from the friendly staff to the superb food , we will miss those breakfasts for sure. Highly recommend the farm tour was very interesting, our kids loved it & even got a spin up the road on a tractor. A shout out also to reception staff who were so friendly & helpful. Thanks for a great few days.
