Highland & Transylvania Glamp. Pod

2 units · Glamping1 acre · Roy Bridge, Scotland

Glamping pods in a large garden alongside the river Roy A 10-minute drive from Loch Lochy and 20 minutes from Fort William Seating in the garden and kitchen and ensuites provided Right on the side of the river Roy, the Highland and Transylvania Glamping Pods is a properly cosy base in the Scottish Highlands. The large garden has a terrace, river views and a seating area, but perhaps the best bit is that it’s located a short drive from lochs, glens, rivers and long-distance trails. What might you get up to? Climbing, hill walking, mountain biking and water-based sports are all on the agenda in this area, but especially in Fort William (20 minutes’ drive) and Lochaber, which have been ascribed as a capital for outdoor adventures. Scotland’s highest mountain, Ben Nevis, is also 20 minutes’ drive away. Even closer is Loch Lochy (10 minutes’ drive), which has access to part of the 79-mile Great Glen Way (around 10 minutes’ drive). From Fort William, start off on another long-distance trail, the West Highland Way, which stretches for 96 miles across the banks of Loch Lomond and ends in Milngavie. The pods here have been named after the places where the owners spent their childhood and continue to live. Feel free to stop off while travelling to or from the Isle of Skye (two hours and 10 minutes) or stay for a good while… Fort William’s centre has a splendid selection of pubs, restaurants, shops and a bus and rail station. Plus, there are lots of links courses for golfers a day trip away, like the Royal Dornoch (two hours and 25 minutes). Both pods have a small double bed (a bit narrower than a standard double) with all bed linen provided. The kitchen areas are equipped with a fridge, microwave, kettle and toaster (crockery, cutlery and towels are handily provided). To keep things nice and tasty, the pods are also well insulated. The patio doors and the rear opening window are both double glazed and there are electric radiators to inject some extra heat into the kitchen and living area.

Glamping pods near Aviemore with a private bathroom guide

Overview

Located within the Cairngorms National Park, the resort town of Aviemore is the perfect base for exploring the spectacular surrounding scenery. Those setting up camp in the Aviemore area will enjoy close proximity to mountain trails, secluded lochs and dense, ancient forest. Wildlife enthusiasts should keep an eye out for eagles, capercaillies and ospreys, while outdoor adventurers can enjoy a range of activities, from kayaking and white water rafting to skiing and snowboarding. Campers have plenty of options, from caravan parks and cosy glamping pods to pitching a tent in a forest.

Where to go

Around Town

Visitors overnighting in Aviemore can enjoy the feel of a wilderness getaway while having easy access to the town’s shops, pubs and restaurants. Nestled in a quiet, wooded area but just a 20-minute walk from the center of town, Oakwood Caravan and Camping Park has hard standing pitches for caravans/motorhomes, as well as three small tent areas. Those (such as tired skiers) looking for a more comfortable, upscale experience can stay in a heated pod at Eriskay B&B and Glamping, close to the centre of town.

Rothiemurchus

A 12-minute drive south of town, the Rothiemurchus estate contains one of Britain’s largest areas of natural forest. At the heart of the estate is a campsite with sheltered tent pitches as well as level pitches for touring caravans and motorhomes, all with electric hook-up. The site offers a wilderness experience, surrounded by Caledonian pine trees, with the convenience of modern facilities.

Loch Morlich

Less than a 20-minute drive southeast of Aviemore, freshwater Loch Morlich is home to a watersports centre from where you can embark on kayaking, sailing and windsurfing adventures. Glenmore Campsite has direct access to the loch’s shores and has plenty of pitches suitable for tents, caravans, campervans and motorhomes.

When to go

Aviemore is a year-round destination, though most visitors arrive in summer when the days are long and relatively warm. Spring and summer are best for enjoying water sports and hiking. Snowfall is typically heaviest from late February through March, making it the best time for skiing and other winter activities (if possible try to avoid the school half-term holidays in February).

Know before you go

Not all campsites in the area are open all year: check opening dates before travelling.
The weather is changeable, even in summer. Come prepared with warm, waterproof clothing and sturdy footwear.
Small biting midges are a common summertime nuisance in the Scottish Highlands. It’s a good idea to bring insect repellent.
Scotrail train services link Aviemore with Aberdeen, Glasgow and beyond. If travelling during summer or school holidays, it’s a good idea to book tickets in advance.
