Regeneration at WildLand is not something that exists behind the scenes. It is woven into the fabric of being here from staying in beautifully restored homes to spending time in the wild landscapes. Our guests are not passive observers – they become part of the story.

Across the Highlands, WildLand works with nature over the long term, creating conditions in which landscapes can recover, reconnect and thrive, exactly how nature intended. Regeneration at WildLand is as much about restraint as it is about action.

The golden eagle stands as a potent symbol of Scotland’s majestic wild places. They are large, powerful raptors who play an important role in the delicate balance of natural habitats in the Highlands.

Today is Earth Day—a timely reminder of our connection to the land. For our dedicated team of WildLanders across the Cairngorms, Loch Ness, and Sutherland, this commitment extends far beyond a single day. Their devotion to our 200-year vision of ecological restoration in the Scottish Highlands is woven into their daily lives, shaping not only their work but their way of living.

As we continue to expand, we are looking for passionate individuals to join our hospitality and conservation teams. If you have a love for nature, a commitment to excellence, and a desire to be part of a transformative journey, we invite you to attend one of our upcoming recruitment open days.
