The Build
Stewart and Lorna Hutchison first began the project in Spring 2014. With a wealth of knowedge of the local area and spectacular views to offer it soon became the perfect location for Rowanlea Lodge.
In order to receive inspiration for the design Stewart and Lorna viewed several log homes none of which met their vision and dream.
In Summer 2014 after travelling around Scotland for inspiration, Stewart and Lorna fell in love with a particular style of log cabin. The vision became a reality when the design process began.
The logs arrived in September 2014 and the solid log structure went up quite quickly. There was spectacular weather which allowed the roof batons to be secured and the exterior walls were soon clad in larch. It took 19 days to build to wind and water tight.
Wanting to remain unique and offer a log cabin that cannot be compared to any other in the North East of Scotland, Stewart and Lorna chose a traditional hand crafted post and beam lodge.
