Gorgeous Glamping in the heart of the Cairngorms and Royal Deeside.

Stay in one of Howe of Torbeg’s four wooden Glamping Pods, surrounded by open farmland and serene birch woodlands. Guests can access great walks and beautiful Scottish countryside straight from their Pod, whilst being only 5 miles from the picturesque village of Ballater with its shops, cafes & restaurants.

Beautiful inside and out, the Pods come with warm bedding and are fully insulated with a heater should you need it for colder days. Outside each Pod find a Kadai fire bowl for BBQs & nights under the stars, as well as a small deck area and picnic bench. All of the Pods have beautiful views down Glen Gairn, and are supported by environmentally conscious on-site facilities.

The Cairngorms is the largest National Park in the UK (twice as big as the Lake District!) and one of the best places in the UK to see wildlife.

Howe of Torbeg is also part of the Snow Roads, a 90 mile route which traverses the highest public road in Britain, taking you through some of the most outstanding landscapes in the Eastern Cairngorms. The Snow Roads are slow roads. Why not take your time, and spend a night at Howe of Torbeg along the way.
