So honored to have hosted our first ‘Wee Treat’ guests at The Solace! 🌿
​Partnering with PKAVS Carers Centre and the Respitality initiative to offer complimentary short breaks to unpaid carers is something very close to our hearts. Caring for others is a full-time job, and everyone deserves a space to relax, unwind, and recharge in nature.
​A massive thank you to PKAVS for all the incredible work they do behind the scenes! 💚✨

🌿 From the Netherlands to the Perthshire Hills! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✨

​We had the absolute privilege of hosting a wonderful family from the Netherlands for a 4-night stay in our little shepherd’s hut, The Solace by Emma Cares They truly made the most of their Scottish getaway!
​From soaking up the sunshine on the decking and splashing around in the waterfall, to packing in some incredible adventures across the country. They managed to tick off the Falkirk Wheel, uncover history at the Secret Bunker, wander the beautiful streets of St Andrews, and pop into Broadslap Fruit Farm . 🍓
​They wrapped up their final evening with a fantastic meal at The Kirkstyle Inn while catching the World Cup final, the perfect end to an action-packed trip. ⚽️🍻

​It was such a joy having them stay with us, and we're so glad our little corner of Perthshire could be their home away from home.

A warm welcome to all who travel near and far... 💛✨
We recently came across this beautiful piece from Woodlarking about the folklore of the gorse flower, and it completely captured the spirit of what we strive to create here at The Solace by Emma Cares.
Historically, gorse was believed to protect both homes and travelers, with its brilliant golden blossoms blooming even in the harshest conditions, a true symbol of hope and resilience.
Whether your journey to us was long or short, we hope The Solace serves as your sanctuary. May it be a place where you can rest, recharge, and find your own “returning light” before you head back out into the world.
Thank you for letting us be a part of your journey. Safe travels to everyone arriving this month! 🌿🏡

🖤Black and white🤍

Where the story of the space matters more than the colour. 🎞There’s a quiet, authentic beauty to The Solace that feels perfectly captured in these monochrome moments.
💡It’s all about the light, the wood, and the stillness of our little spot in the hills.

🌿The scent of honeysuckle is the first thing to welcome you to our little corner of the Perthshire hills. It acts as the natural gateway to The Solace, filling the air with its sweet, wild fragrance as you make your way down the path to your retreat.🌿

✨ Another 5-Star Rating for The Solace! ✨

There is truly nothing better than knowing a guest has left here feeling completely rested and renewed. It makes my heart sing, because it’s exactly why I created this sanctuary.
Life moves fast, but nature moves at its own perfect pace. If you are ready to step away from the noise, take a deep breath, and let the wild world ground you, I am absolutely thrilled to share how The Solace by Emma Cares and Grounded by the Wild are coming together.
As a qualified Level 3 Forest School Leader, I use our incredible ancient woodland to help you disconnect from screens and reconnect with yourself. Every corner of this special place is a natural resource designed to soothe your mind, body, and soul:

✨ Forest Bathing & Flower Therapy: Immerse your senses under the canopy of our ancient trees, letting the gentle energy of the woods and wild flora restore your inner calm.

💦 Natural Hydrotherapy: Let the rhythmic, soothing soundscape of our winding burn wash over you, or enjoy a gentle, refreshing wild dip in our secluded waterfall pool.

🎶 Nature’s Symphony: Trade your phone notifications for the restorative, pure joy of our daily bird song.

Why step outside with me? Spending mindful time in nature drastically lowers stress, eases anxiety, and completely restores our mental well-being. It’s not just a walk in the woods; it’s a total reset button for your mental health.

Whether you are looking to pause, heal, or simply learn how to be Grounded by the Wild, your sanctuary is waiting.
