Brylach Steading is a beautifully restored collection of three premium self-catering cottages in the heart of Speyside, combining Highland character, contemporary comfort and warm hospitality. Originally built in 1873 as the carriage houses and stables for nearby Rothes Glen House, the historic steading has been thoughtfully restored to retain its original character while providing everything needed for a relaxing and memorable stay. Centred around an impressive courtyard and surrounded by rolling Speyside countryside, Brylach is a wonderfully peaceful place to slow down and reconnect with nature. Guests regularly enjoy spectacular sunsets and may spot some of the local wildlife from their cottage, including red squirrels, roe & red deer, red kites, buzzards, ospreys, woodpeckers and, if you're particularly lucky, one of our elusive pine martens. Whether you're escaping for a romantic break, celebrating a special occasion, exploring Speyside with friends or visiting on business, Brylach offers the privacy and freedom of self-catering with the warmth and quality of a boutique stay. Guests enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi, private parking, convenient self check-in and our carefully curated local recommendations to help you experience the very best of Speyside. Well-behaved dogs are also welcome, making Brylach an ideal retreat for every member of the family.

We're Louise and Janno, and we're delighted to welcome you to Brylach Steading. As owner-hosts, we feel incredibly privileged to live in the heart of Speyside and to care for this beautiful historic property. Since becoming custodians of Brylach, we've lovingly restored and continue to invest in both the cottages and the surrounding estate, creating somewhere we'd genuinely love to stay ourselves. We love meeting guests from around the world and sharing everything that makes Speyside so special. Whether you're looking for the perfect distillery tour, a favourite local restaurant, a scenic walk, hidden wildlife spots or somewhere to enjoy a quiet dram while watching the sunset, we're always happy to share our recommendations. Our aim is simple: for every guest to leave with wonderful memories of Brylach, Speyside and a desire to return.
