Lundies House on Condé Nast Gold List 2024

23.12.2023

Congratulations to Wildland team at Lundies House, recognised earlier this week in the prestigious Gold List 2024, Condé Nast collection of the best hotels and resorts across the world. From Antonia Quirke’s review:

“One of the nicest moments at Lundies is hearing the distant clatter of someone lighting a fire in one the sitting rooms, followed by a vague padding off along slate flags into a kitchen where a chef is tuning the radio. There are only a handful of staff – chef, housekeeper, gardener etc – and they will leave you to sit and read or chat until the early hours – no sense of wanting to usher you up to your rooms. In short, they are (fully) present but never neurotic; a near magic trick, and far harder to achieve in the hotel sphere than it sounds.”

Situated in the village of Tongue, Sutherland in the shadow of the iconic Ben Hope, Lundies looks over its stone walls and gardens towards the ancient ruins of Caisteal Bharraich and the dramatic Kyle of Tongue. The former 19th century manse has been meticulously repaired and sensitively adapted to create accommodation in the form of three period-inspired guest suites and an attic level apartment.

The creative team at Wildland were deeply involved in all aspects of the project, from defining a clear, ambitious vision at the outset to sourcing and commissioning unique pieces of furniture and artworks at completion.
