Solar panels powering the Runach Arainn site

Sustainability

A Nature Based Business

Designed around nature, with sustainable practice at its heart — from solar lighting and composting toilets to a food forest garden and wildflower meadow.

A Nature Based Business

Our business was designed around nature, with sustainable practice at its heart. From day one we incorporated ‘green’ practices into both how the business itself works and in all areas on site for guests.

By investing in this way, we try to:

Lessen our environmental impact
Demonstrate sustainable practice
Enhance the environment around us
Create a beautiful, relaxing natural site
Offer amazing sustainable holidays without compromising quality or luxury

From our butterfly filled meadow and rare Arran whitebeam trees, to the abundant food forest garden and red squirrels around site, we hope you enjoy staying and engaging with your surroundings here. Lots of information is provided on what we do and tours are available.
