Meet the Team

Julia and Edward Timpson became the owners of Bradan Lodges in August 2025. They love the tranquillity and wild beauty of this part of Scotland and wish to share it through the rental of their lodges Pine Marten, Wildcat and Woodcock. Edward is a keen walker and is discovering the many mountains and lochs in the area while Julia is a wildlife enthusiast and birdwatcher. Both love outdoor activities, especially when accompanied by their lovable and lively border terrier, Lucas. 

Zoe, our manager, is guardian of the guest experience and her care and attention to detail will make your stay a truly special one.

We hope you have a wonderful time in this extraordinary part of the world. You will be staying in Dalriada, the most ancient kingdom in Scotland, where the kings of Scotland were once crowned (at Dunadd, you can visit the actual footprint of kings.) This area around Kilmartin Glen holds the highest concentration of Neolithic monuments in Europe, all lovingly detailed at the excellent Kilmartin Museum, which has just re-opened after a £2 million renovation project. We are surrounded by the most stunning scenery and coastline, with fabulous walks, places to cycle, boat trips and gorgeous coastal villages with excellent pubs, cafes and restaurants.
