Traditionally, a “Bothy” is the Scottish term for a cozy, often remote hillside hut where shepherds and travellers could unwind after a long day. Here, they would enjoy a dram (a drink), share stories by the firelight, and recharge for their next day’s toil. These were found in the beautiful Scottish Highlands.
Our collection of Bothies offers so much more than just the facilities and comfort of traditional simple huts. They are beautifully furnished and exude warmth and welcome, making them the ideal retreat for spending quality time with friends or family to work, play, rest, recover, and enjoy. Kick back and soak in the stunning views—whether you’re gazing at the Alps, the Remarkables, the city, or the lake, you’re in for a treat!
Bothy accommodation offers affordable, welcoming luxury. Thank you for considering our homes, and we hope you choose to stay with us time and time again, as many of our guests have.
We have both long term accomodation and short term accomodation.
All accomodation is fully resource consented.
Welcome
Hi, my name is Jen.
With Scottish origins, my family moved to New Zealand in 2012 and we, happily, became citizens in 2020. I have loved exploring and getting to know our new country. New Zealand is my soul home.
As a swimmer hiker and biker, I love the sea, the mountains and the fresh air and I will never tire of encouraging my children, friends and guests to get out and BREATH :0)
Owning 4 of the apartments or houses that you see in these pages, I know how important it is to feel that your property is cared for properly. I treat every home as if it were my own.
With a business background spanning over 20 years, I worked as a Business Unit Manager in a field sales marketing company, a project manager and as a trader in the dairy industry. As a result I understand the importance of clear and kind verbal and written communication and for finding effective solutions in a timely manner.
Ultimately, I want to ensure that all of the guests and owners we work with are confident and informed in our service. We work together to ensure the best outcomes for all.
I do hope you love our properties shown in the pages. Any questions just contact me !
Regards
Jen
