The home

A holiday without the sensory overload

115 Loch Murray is part of Diverse Minds Learning & Leisure CIC’s growing portfolio of community assets for sensory aware holidays and short breaks. It was set up by people who understand that an ordinary holiday can be exhausting when light, sound, crowds or unfamiliar routines are hard to manage.

Your own private outdoor space
  • Fully enclosed garden with gated access
  • Private spa hot tub
  • Dogs welcome
115 is located on an exceptionally peaceful part of the park which makes it ideal for those who find louder and larger parks too overstimulating. 

The park has fantastic facilities including:
  • Fishing Loch
  • Indoor & Outdoor Heated Swimming Pools
  • Play Park
  • Outdoor Games Areas
  • Indoor Games Room
  • Cafe on site
  • Shop on site
  • The Lairds Inn Pub & Restaurant
  • Resident Donkeys, Geese and many wild ducks to feed from the decking

Profits are reinvested in Diverse Minds Learning & Leisure CIC community work.
