Treetop stay

Get ready for a break with a difference with today’s unique deal at the beautiful Ackergill Tower in Wick.

Perched above the glorious estate grounds of the historic 15th century Ackergill castle, you and a lucky loved one will enjoy a romantic stay in a treehouse cottage. For two or three nights, you’ll get to experience a warm and luxurious stay in this treetop abode, which also bears the proud title of being Europe’s largest treehouse. Resting in the branches of a 150-year old sycamore tree, your cosy abode is lavishly furnished; with a large circular bath, 7ft round bed and even a microwave and fridge, this isn’t anything like the home-built treehouses you used to venture into as a kid! Kitted out with windows that enable 180 degree views of the charming surrounding woodland, you can enjoy a peaceful night sleeping under the stars as you snuggle up with your loved one.

Gourmet gem

As well as a hearty breakfast each morning, you can also enjoy a mouth-watering three-course gourmet dinner on the first night of your stay. Dining in the wood-panelled Great Hall, food lovers will rejoice as they tuck into spectacular starters, marvellous mains and decadent desserts expertly prepared by the team of talented chefs. And if you’re really lucky, you just might be piped to your table in the Great Hall by the hotel’s very own Highland pipe band. Talk about a warm welcome!

4/5 TripAdvisor rating

“We stayed in the treehouse at Ackergill Tower and this was a truly unique experience. It was very lush and finished to a high standard.”

“This place is truly a hidden gem! Ackergill Tower is a little slice of Highland history and has lovely luxury rooms, fabulous food, a stunning beach and the most attentive service we have ever received. On top of that, it holds the biggest treehouse in Europe and by far the warmest. We will be going back ASAP!” 

“We have just returned from a three night luxury stay at Ackergill Tower; the tower is beautiful and you are encouraged to make yourself at home by relaxing in one of the sitting rooms, playing croquet on the lawn or having a game of snooker. We stayed in the spacious Treehouse cottage and had breakfast in the tower; this place is perfect for those who want to escape for a short and relaxed break.”
