Scotland’s Luxury Treehouses Bring The Magic Faraway Tree to Life

With ‘The Magic Faraway Tree’ set to enchant a new generation of children when it opened in cinemas last month, there has never been a better moment to swap the sofa for the treetops. The Treehouses at Lanrick and The Treehouses at Leckie – stylish off-grid luxury treetop hideaways set amongst enchanted woodland in the heart of Scotland – offer you the rare chance to genuinely live amongst the trees, just like the characters in Blyton’s timeless story.

In a world where time is increasingly dominated by devices, the return of ‘The Magic Faraway Tree’ is a timely reminder of the power of imaginative play. Just as Blyton’s beloved characters discovered new fantastical lands at the top of the Faraway Tree, young and older guests at Lanrick and Leckie are invited to ditch the screens and dive into woodland adventures of their own – building dens, spotting red squirrels, toasting marshmallows over fire pits, bathing under the stars and falling asleep beneath the rustle of leaves.

Coinciding with the film’s release, The Treehouses at Lanrick will unveil a magical new Fairy Garden – a place for children to let their imaginations run wild and immerse themselves in a world of fairies, exploring enchanting gardens and hunting for tiny fairy doors hidden along the way.

Beyond exploring the private woodlands of Lanrick and Leckie, nearby Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park offer exceptional outdoor experiences. Whether mountain climbing, canoeing, wild swimming or fishing for trout and pike, the park is a rugged and unspoilt haven for those with children wanting to let off steam and explore the wilderness. While back at The Treehouses, parents can look forward to relaxing in the outdoor copper baths (and stunning woodland sauna at Lanrick) or indulging in alfresco Swedish massages to fully embrace slow woodland living.
