THE OWLERY

The Owlery self catering Salen Ardnamurchan Scotland


Located in secluded grounds at Hillside, and adjacent to my Great Horned owl's aviary, The Owlery is a new addition to my self-catering accommodation at Hillside. Built from Siberian larch with a lovely vaulted, natural pine, ceiling internally, this 7.2m x 4m pod is an architecturally interesting design as well as an extremely cosy and comfortable cabin in which to relax and unwind.

The Owlery is approached from the car park at the top of my driveway, and you are led up a shallow ramp which opens out on to a raised deck, providing a veranda area where you can sit out and enjoy the garden views and watch your adjacent neighbour, Freya.

Owner's Tip
While I keep the bird feeders topped up regularly, you are very welcome to bring your own selection of treats for the birds.

As with The Chalet property, if you want to have a good chance of seeing pine martens and badgers close up, and don't mind a late night vigil, bring a selection of peanut butter, honey, or jam with you or for the healthier option, peanuts and dried fruit (they adore sultanas, raisins and banana chips!). The two small slate-topped feeding tables can be used to put out the more sticky foods a variety of wildlife should be kept quite busy visiting to sample the menu.
