Situated deep within the Scottish Highlands, just steps from many lakes and mountains, lies 57 Nord. This collection of two design-led boutique hideaways blends the region’s Norse-Gael heritage by incorporating Scottish craftsmanship, modern Scandinavian design and panoramic views into both structures.

Sky House and the newly opened Hill House feature luxury amenities, highlighting the meeting of modern design with wild and dramatic landscapes. Emphasizing slow living, 57 Nord encourages guests to escape their hectic daily lives and spend time in the rugged Highlands, reconnecting with nature and loved ones and rediscovering the beauty in every moment.

Sky House accommodates two adults, while Hill House, opened just last year, accommodates up to four adults, including children aged 6 and up. Hill House offers a modern interpretation of historic Scottish Shielings. Coming from the Old Norse Skjol, meaning shelter, Hill House features panoramic windows that perfectly frame Loch Duich, Eilean Donan Castle and the Kintail Mountains.
