Lodges have come a long way since they were used as shelters for hunting parties.
In fact, even hunting party lodges were simply sumptuous in comparison to the temporary lodges thrown up on construction sites as workshops for masons, or even the lodges used as homes for estate gatekeepers.
Today, lodges have become synonymous with luxury lodges for the more discerning.
With such a vast range of log cabins for sale to choose from, we’ll be looking at some of our favourites in this blog.
And where better to start than with the crème de la crème – the Luxury Solid Log Norwegian Lodge*

Norwegian Log Lodges are built using Norway’s traditional log construction methods – which have been tried and tested for over 1,000 years, in the most severe of weather. That means high performance and durability, combined with modern, flexible design and style.
Pre-cut logs are imported from Norway. The logs are then built in the traditional 'solid log' method on the site, using the cross-cross, logo-on-log construction, to create your bespoke Norwegian Log Cabin.
Kipp Forrest Lodges’ Norwegian Log Lodges are supplied by renowned log building manufacturers in Norway, who are subject to stringent replanting programmes by the Norwegian Government. The imported pre-cut logs are from slow growing Baltic/Scandinavian pine.
Our ethos is responsible use of natural resources, and no timber used for our Luxury Solid Log Norwegian Lodges is taken from rain forests or other endangered habitats.
Our sister company, Kippford Holiday Park, is a proud recipient of the David Bellamy Conservation Award for the work it did to protect Britain’s natural environment. As a company, we take the environment seriously, ensuring we enhance and work with nature, rather than just take from it.

Fitted with high quality bathrooms and kitchens, gas central heating and 140 square foot decked verandas, our Luxury Solid Log Norwegian Lodges can also be tailored and designed to suit your needs, which, on some models, could include (for example) a home office, sauna or garden storeroom.

Kipp Forest Lodges’ Luxury Solid Log Lodges don’t just have that extra ‘wow’ factor because of their build, design and optional extras – they are also sold with around 1/6 acre of land, which is landscaped to suit your tastes and needs.
Set high above the beautiful Seaside Village of Kippford in Dumfries and Galloway, overlooking the Estuary of the River Urr, our Norwegian Lodges enjoy views of over 25 miles to the Galloway Hills, and across to The Lake District.
Sailing, fishing, mountain biking, woodland and coastal walks and nature spotting start almost from your Lodge’s doorstep. Privacy and peace come as standard, leaving ample opportunity and space for you to relax and unwind.
These luxury lodges for sale are some of the most exclusive lodges in Scotland.

Other costs and legal issues
Kipp Forest Lodge’s Luxury Solid Log Norwegian Lodges are freehold log cabins, which (in basic terms) means, as an owner, you do not need to refer to any third party if you wish to re-sell.
As freehold lodges, you own the land, so there are no annual Pitch Fees.
A charge of £360pa is paid for connection and servicing of utility supplies and supply of (mains) water. Electricity is mains and gas is from private bulk tanks.
Interested clients may reserve a plot with a 5% deposit, fully refundable for any reason for a period of 31 days, following our normal policy, to allow the layout and land boundaries to be confirmed and for purchasers’ Solicitors to examine and attend to missives.
Full legal information is available from our Solicitors, Biggart Baillie Solicitors, 7 Castle Street, Edinburgh, EH2 3AP.
**Prices shown are a guide as the cost largely depends on the Norwegian Krone exchange rate.
