“We wanted a space for people to vanish,” artist Jonathan Gent recently told the Financial Times. The result is Boath House, a unique hotel on Scotland’s northern coast, near Findhorn Bay. A reachable retreat, it is a haven away from urban bustle with ten sensitively renovated bedrooms, a 400-year-old-walled garden, a restaurant, store, and studio with a cabin and sauna. It also has a creative residency programme and curated shows. Everything offered is more than palliative and allows guests to relax completely in a creative space that encourages more creativity. @christabelstewart is arts editor at TANK.
