Each log cabin is provided with its own designated carport situated nearby for your convenience, ensuring a dedicated parking space for one car per log cabin.

At Swinney Wood Log Cabins, we prioritise the maintenance and cleanliness of our hot tubs to ensure our guests have a safe and enjoyable experience. With every changeover, we diligently:

  • Empty the hot tubs
  • Thoroughly clean and sanitise them
  • Refill with fresh water
  • Replace the filters to ensure optimal performance

To maintain the highest water quality, we add bromine, alkalinity increaser, and pH increaser. Our dedicated team discreetly checks the hot tub water every morning between 5:30 am and 7:30 am, ensuring minimal disturbance to our guests. We adjust the chemical levels as necessary, upholding our commitment to providing a comfortable and relaxing environment.

While we always strive to have the hot tubs at a welcoming temperature of 37 degrees for your arrival, please be aware that, on rare occasions and due to unforeseen circumstances, there might be times when the hot tub isn’t immediately ready. Your understanding in such situations is greatly appreciated.

Rest assured, our meticulous attention to detail and stringent practices ensure that your hot tub experience at Swinney Wood Log Cabins will be both safe and delightful.

Wi-Fi is available, unlimited, and complimentary for all guests. You can find the password within your log cabin. Please note that while we strive to provide a consistent service, we cannot guarantee the level of service, availability, quality, or bandwidth.

Swinney Wood Log Cabins were required to maintain a small footprint due to regulations aimed at minimising the number of trees removed during construction.

This, unfortunately, resulted in a design that may not accommodate guests with restricted mobility. Each log cabin has a staircase leading to the mezzanine floor, and Apricity log cabin also has external steps leading to the front door.

We understand the importance of accessibility, but our design options were limited by these regulations to protect the surrounding environment.

We understand that many guests would love to bring their pets along; however, pets are not permitted at Swinney Wood Log Cabins for a couple of important reasons.

Firstly, the surrounding woodland is home to a diverse range of wildlife, and we want to protect their natural habitat. Certain log cabins also have direct access to the woods, making this policy even more crucial.

Secondly, our log cabins are designed with an emphasis on creating an exceptionally luxurious and romantic atmosphere for couples, ensuring a serene and tranquil environment for all guests.

We appreciate your understanding and hope that you will still enjoy your stay at our beautiful, pet-free log cabins.

Swinney Wood Log Cabins are designed exclusively for adults. We regret that we cannot accommodate individuals under the age of 18, including babies in arms.

Unfortunately, due to insurance regulations, we are unable to allow visitors at Swinney Wood Log Cabins during your stay.

Unfortunately, barbecues are strictly prohibited at Swinney Wood Log Cabins due to the woodland location and the associated safety concerns.

Upon arrival, you will find a complimentary basket of logs in your log cabin. 

If you require additional logs, a log store is located at the back of your carport; except for Apricity, where it is situated by the entrance to the log cabin. 

Sacks of logs are available at £5 per sack, and each includes two firelighters. We kindly ask guests to deposit the cash payment in the honesty box located within the log store.

Smoking, including the use of cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and vaping devices, is strictly prohibited both inside and around the log cabins. This policy is particularly important due to the woodland location, which presents a fire hazard. If you wish to smoke or vape, please use the designated smoking area located in your carport and make use of the cigarette bin provided.

You are welcome to arrange grocery deliveries to your log cabin, as most supermarkets deliver to Swinney Wood. Please include the name of your log cabin when arranging the delivery. We kindly ask that you schedule the delivery for after your arrival time, as we cannot guarantee a member of staff will be on-site to receive it.
