    A very unique experience that will stay out from all others. Outside facilities close by, convenient and clean. Lighting present in tent. Owner drove us up to site and back to our car the next day.

    Andrew and his wife were delightful, and this was a unique and fun experience! The view was amazing and we got a kick out of listening to the rain and the bleating of nearby sheep. We definitely recommend the breakfast; it was very good, hot, and...

    The location was stunning. The facilities were great considering you are off grid. The outside shower was interesting (bucket with shower hose controlled by a pump) it worked better than we expected.

    Funky, fun, and a wee adventure. If you want 5 star this is not for you, however for those who have life in their soul you should do it. Fantastic hosts, view to die for. We booked a tepee, but the A frame was available so we chose it only...

    Andrew and Eileen made us feel very welcome, and even upgraded us from a teepee to a lodge gratis as the weather was quite extreme. We paid for a great breakfast in the morning, which set up up for the day. Fabulous views over the Loch and a good...

Property info

Shannon tipi is an amazing space and a you and a total off grid experience . A traditional canvas tipi set on a hill Croft in the west highlands of Scotland. It has a comfortable real bed, interior and exterior solar lights, solar usb charging point and full size bean bags to help you relax and enjoy. The tipi also has a wooden built utility building which houses your kitchen, which is fully equipped for basic cooking, your toilet and your shower. All facilities are off grid which all adds to the really different experience of staying in a tipi. You are close to nature with stunning views and fresh air. Please note that the tipi is uphill from the parking area and as such not suitable for anyone with mobility issues.

Neighborhood info

Our Croft is in the village of lochcarron and is situated on the nc 500 route which makes it a popular destination for travelling. As we are a working Croft with livestock we have a no dogs policy. However if you are interested in the animals or crofting we are happy to talk to you about this, and there’s always the opportunity to meet the animals, The village itself is very pretty with a couple of shops, restaurants, petrol stations and a hotel. It is convenient for Skye, applecross and Torridon to name but a few. This makes it a great base for exploring
