The Rings

General information

Our Vision:
Through various personal experiences it became apparent that there was a need for accommodation to provide for those with particular accessibility needs.
In Scotland those with high levels of disability find it almost impossible to find overnight accommodation. This affects the whole family's choices for holidays. We aim to improve this
situation. We have realised that disability affects all ages. This has an impact on the rest of the family. It can the result of illness, inherited disease or accident.

The Rings are bespoke designed unique holiday accommodation with flexibility to its core.
Hand crafted using modern standards by a team with a passion for what they are doing.
A hybrid boiler heats the underfloor heating mostly by an Air-source heat pump backed up with an LPG boiler. There are 8 en-suite bedrooms, two of which are studio apartments. There are two further principle lounge kitchen dining areas separated by a moveable wall which can be opened to enable all 16 guests to eat and socialise together, (please see our pictures for a visual representation of the flexibility of booking options) Two of the four kitchens are wheelchair accessible. The walls are soundproofed to a high standard for mixed occupancy and fire safety. Two of our apartments are to Category 1 standard, enabling a wheelchair user(s) to
holiday independently.
Three of the bedrooms have ceiling tracking hoist and those wet rooms also have a bath, one which has a power seat and jacuzzi style therapy.
