Changing room

Nestled near Strathaven, Lochar Mill Riverside Retreat offers a unique wellness experience surrounded by the tranquil beauty of nature.

Our retreat provides a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, allowing our visitors to rejuvenate their mind, body, and spirit.

Our services include infra red sauna and cold water therapy, designed to promote relaxation and overall well-being. At Lochar Mill, Alan and Lucy are dedicated to providing exceptional care and personalized experiences for each guest.

We also provide a riverside oasis in our Hygge Hut (pronounced 'Hoo-gah') a Danish word which encapsulates a feeling of coziness, contentment and wellbeing derived from simple pleasures and togetherness. Simply enjoy the sounds of the river, curl up an read a book, or enjoy a cuppa and a chat with a friend.

Our private hire area is available for get togethers and events to make your visit extra special. Visit the Private Hire page for full details of our available packages. Available Friday - Sunday.

 

In April this area will be converted into a permanent structure - the 'Crannag'; Scottish word for a place to gather (opens May 2025).
