The Loft Glamping & Camping

12 units · Motorhomes, Tents5 acres · Kinloss, Scotland
The Loft Glamping & Camping is situated at East Grange Farm, Kinloss, Moray. It 's a working farm that has evolved over the years to include Wigwam Glamping and Camping for campervans, motorhomes and tents. A number of the old farm buildings are also perfectly appointed as venue spaces for Weddings, Events and Workshops. The "wilderness" campsite offers pitches suitable for tents and small campervans whilst the Stackyard area is suitable for motorhomes and mega tents. All motorhome pitches have electrical hook-up and we have a good number of electric tent pitches. Unfortunately we do not take bookings for caravans. Onsite, we also have Original Wigwam cabins which are wooden camping cabins (Pods) that offer all year round protection against the elements. With heating, electricity, fridge, kettle and toasters. For those wanting a bit more luxury there are also ensuite Wigwam Cabins onsite with wood fired hot tubs. We welcome families, groups, well behaved dogs and do allow campfires outside the wigwams and at pitches and can provide fire hubs on the campsite (this must be pre-arranged). The Loft Glamping & Camping looks forward to welcoming you throughout the year!

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.

Doigh Nadair

4 units · Tents30 acres · Scotland
We are a recently purchased family run croft with ponies, pigs, sheep, goats, ducks, and hens. A rural setting within walking distance of the village of Lairg. We do not allow dogs as your camping pitch will be visited by our hens and you will be surrounded on one side by our ponies and the other by our goats and sheep. If you would like to include some time with our animals during your visit please get in touch and let us know. We will be around during your stay carrying out day to day tasks on the croft. A few patches of mown grass, a few sensible rules and two toilet sheds (each with porta potti and sink with cold water) are just about all that separate Doigh Nadair from a wild camping pitch. It’s simple stuff: if you’re someone who loves the idea of wild camping, but aren’t quite ready to head into the highlands with a backpack, then this place is for you. It’s somewhere to enjoy the outdoors in all its glory with the basics taken care of, thanks to a thoughtful owner. The owners Kirsteen and Leon are happy to share their journey so far to off grid life and the animals who used to be part of the petting farm they ran in Speyside before they moved. We’re not just talking about the pretty views of the hills surrounding Lairg but the fact that this land has been left relatively untouched for a number of years. The croft is quite biodiverse and Leon and Kirsteen would like to keep it that way. As a result, the few campers who are allowed on site at any one time are asked to exercise a light touch. The whole site is off grid so don’t expect electric hook up. There is water, but self-sufficiency is important here so you’ll need to come prepared. Having said that, there are usually a few farm-fresh eggs for sale, but for more than that you’ll need to head to the nearby village of Lairg where there is a pub, restaurant, take away, spar and a costcutter. The site is not quite seaside, lochside, mountainside or wild — but it’s satisfyingly close to all of these.

Campsites near Ullapool guide

Overview

A gateway to the northwest Highlands and the Western Isles, the port village of Ullapool sits on the shores of Loch Broom on the west coast of Scotland and is a wonderful destination in itself. Ullapool is surrounded by natural beauty and offers opportunities for scenic walks along the rocky coast. More serious walkers and climbers can tackle the peaks of Stac Pollaidh, Cùl Mòr, Cùl Beag, and Suilven. The town lies along the popular North Coast 500 long-distance driving route but is well worth staying a while. Campers can choose from a well-appointed caravan park in town to pitching a tent on the shores of the Atlantic.

When to go

For enjoying long, sunny days outdoors, June through August is the best time to visit, despite the area getting busy with tourists driving the North Coast 500 route in the summer months. September is a good alternative for fewer crowds, while winter visitors will contend with cold conditions while enjoying crisp landscapes.

Know before you go

  • Some private sites are seasonal—check opening dates before travelling.
  • Ullapool weather is changeable, even in summer. Come prepared with warm, waterproof clothing and sturdy footwear.
  • Small biting midges are a common summertime Highland nuisance. It’s a good idea to bring insect repellent on your camping trip.
  • There are no rail links to Ullapool, but bus services run from Inverness, which is linked by train to Edinburgh and beyond.
