Tarn House

A twelve-room lodge on a frozen lake, 2,140 metres up. Fires lit by four, skis by the door.

Twelve rooms, one lake, and nothing on the schedule you didn’t put there yourself. We keep the fires going, the coffee strong and the trail maps up to date.

Days here

Most guests come for the views and stay for the pace. A typical day looks something like this.

Fireside evenings

The library stays open late, and somebody always has a book recommendation.
