A View Like No Other: ÖÖD Mirror Houses Launch at The View by Lahill Craig, A Luxury Hilltop Retreat Near St Andrews

25 June 2025

ÖÖD is excited to announce the opening of The View by Lahill Craig, a dramatic and design-forward escape where mirrored architecture meets the soul of the Scottish countryside. Perched high on a hillside just 15 minutes from the historic town of St Andrews, the world-renowned Home of Golf, this ÖÖD Mirror House location brings together centuries of farm heritage, bold minimalism, and one of the most commanding views in all of Fife.

Set on a multigenerational family farm overlooking the Firth of Forth, with unobstructed panoramas stretching all the way to Edinburgh, the view itself is the story. A single glance out the floor-to-ceiling windows offers guests a cinematic experience of land, sea, and sky.

Where Nature Reflects Back

Each ÖÖD Mirror House is precisely positioned at 200 metres above sea level to embrace the epic horizon, blending into the landscape while offering a completely immersive experience. Inside, thoughtful design brings the outdoors in: from sunrise to starlight, guests are surrounded by nature’s drama in quiet luxury.

Rather than isolating guests, the mirror houses invite them to fully connect with the surroundings, whether soaking in a private hot tub or sauna with open-air shower, watching wildlife pass by, or gazing out across the sea toward distant Edinburgh.

This is one of the most majestic views we’ve ever worked with: rolling farmland, sea, sky, and silence, all just minutes from the heart of St Andrews. The blend of rural heritage and modern design makes The View by Lahill Craig a truly special place to escape, reflect, and reconnect with nature.

From Family Legacy to Future Vision

Developed by the owners of Lahill Craig Farm as a way to diversify and future-proof their generational farmland, this retreat is a passion project born from place and purpose.

We’ve lived with this view every morning of our lives, and now we want others to experience it too. This project is about sharing what’s special about this land and securing its future for our children. The mirror houses reflect the past, present, and future of Lahill Craig, a way to reconnect with nature while supporting local community and heritage.

Angela and Hugh, Owners of Lahill Craig Farm

The houses sit on volcanic rock that once served as a Pictish lookout. The surrounding pasture, now re-grassed to preserve local vegetation, continues to host cows and sheep, linking modern luxury to an ancient landscape.

A Secluded Sanctuary Near the Heart of Golf

Though worlds away in atmosphere, the retreat is just 15 minutes from the iconic town of St Andrews. Guests can explore world-class golf, charming fishing villages, coastal walks, seaside saunas, and fresh seafood from nearby harbours before retreating to the stillness of the hillside and the glow of a Scottish sunset.

The experience is enhanced with thoughtful details like locally sourced breakfast packs featuring farm eggs, homemade jams, and scones.
