For
lovers of the outdoors, the Scottish
Highlands make for a craggy paradise – it’s a dramatic
landscape thick with thistles, scored by glens and dotted with
lochs which glisten with freshwater fish. While love knows no
bounds, bedding down in a luxury oasis after a day spent braving
the wilderness certainly beats pitching a tent. We’ve trawled the
hills to find the region’s most spectacular hotels, including
Hobbit-worthy huts with dog-sledging circuits and dizzyingly grand
mountain lodges staggered with contemporary art.

This zany art
hotel sits in Braemar, a mere speck of a village in the swollen
wilderness of the Cairngorms National Park. Don’t be fooled by its
chunky stone framework; the interiors of this hotel are themselves
a torrent of drama, with neon contemporary art fixtures and
sweeping satin drapery at every turn. It’s the passion project of
gallerists Hauser & Wirth. And yes, it is as eccentric as it
sounds.
