Eleven Deplar Farm
I’d go for Eleven Deplar Farm if you want a stay with a spa. The views are part of the appeal.
More about this place
Eleven Deplar Farm is a 13-room adventure lodge inside a converted sheep farm, where a turf roof, cinematic windows, and serious guiding turn a remote stay into the main event. You come for the mountains at the glass and the rare ability to pair full-scale days outside with a geothermal pool, sauna, and polished meals under one roof.
Days are shaped around the season and your appetite: heli-skiing and ski touring when the slopes are white; hiking, biking, horseback riding, fly fishing, sea kayaking, and coastal excursions when the valleys open up. The lodge team designs guided itineraries rather than leaving you to bolt activities onto a room after arrival.
Back inside, soak through the indoor-outdoor geothermal pool, try the sauna and cold plunge, book a spa treatment or flotation session, then settle into locally rooted dinners. Bedrooms feel warm and restrained, but the shared rooms and huge views are the point—this is a social adventure base with luxury support, not a place to hide in your suite.
Reserve well ahead and confirm transfers directly with the lodge. The address is remote, winter road access is weather-dependent, and many experiences require advance planning; arrive with flexible expectations and proper layers.
