Rather than a traditional cabin, KABN’s latest opening has been conceived as an ultra-luxury suite in the wilderness: a 60-square-metre private retreat hidden within a 4,000-acre estate in the Cairngorms National Park. Its exact location is only revealed after booking, preserving a rare sense of privacy and seclusion from the moment of reservation.
The suite is more than twice the size of KABN’s original Loch Fyne cabins, with panoramic Highland views framing an in-built bath, alongside both indoor and outdoor rain showers. A fully step-free design has been integrated throughout, making the retreat fully wheelchair accessible without compromising the considered aesthetic.
Handcrafted by Scottish artisans using sustainably sourced materials, the suite takes a deliberately restrained approach to luxury. A fully equipped kitchen allows guests to self-cater, while tactile natural materials and carefully considered details create a space designed to feel calm rather than showy.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Hotel Designs.
