We’re thrilled to share that two exciting additions have now been completed at Ash Tree Howf! The stunning new turret is in place, adding even more magic to this already extraordinary treehouse. Plus, you can now enjoy a relaxing soak in your own wood-fired hot tub – the perfect way to unwind and soak in the surroundings.
The hot tub is available as an optional extra for £30 per night. If you’d like to add it to your stay, just let us know when booking.
(Please do note we have deliberately avoided fitting the Tree Howf out like a mini house, we have tried to keep it authentic and in keeping with its hand crafted style)
What to bring – Slippers are a must, a sleep mask if you are troubled by light, towels, torch, camera, food and drinks remembering that bottle of bubbly and of course time……. to just sit and enjoy this really unique Tree Howf.
In the evening sit outside on the balcony overlooking the lochan and views of the Ochils. Test your cookery skills on the wood burning oven and enjoy your food al fresco. In the summer the swallows will dip in the water… You will be treated to lots of birds, wildlife, soay and ryeland sheep, ponies, our two donkeys, our pygmy goats, a variety of poultry including turkeys, rhea, guinea fowl, ducks and geese.
There is plenty to do in the area in the day but if you don’t feel like leaving the ‘Tree Howf’ you can just enjoy the two acres of grounds and gardens at Craighead.
Kids – sorry but the Tree Howf is not suitable for children.
Dogs – Sorry but we can not accommodate dogs
