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 near Aberfoyle with wifi provided guide

Overview

Aberfoyle in the heart of the Trossachs is a quick getaway from Glasgow but still feels far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city. Its prime location on the banks of the River Forth in the heart of one of Scotland’s two national parks means easy access to some of the best forests, lochs and hills in this part of the country. National Cycle Route 7 passes through the town, which has plenty of amenities along its main street. Campsite and wild camping permit areas are scattered throughout the park.

Where to go

Queen Elizabeth Forest Park

Surrounding the village of Aberfoyle on all sides, Queen Elizabeth Forest Park stretches as far south as the east banks of Loch Lomond. Just outside of town, amble along the trails of the Lodge Forest Visitor Centre down to its red squirrel hide. Further north, hike the short and steep Ben A’an or the more challenging Ben Venue. Cycle the easy path around Loch Katrine or take the steamship across. The Rob Roy Way and the Great Trossachs Path traverse the forests nearby.

Perthshire

About an hour’s drive northwest from Aberfoyle, Perthshire is nestled in the centre of Scotland between the Trossachs and the wilder Cairngorms. Its welcoming landscape is perhaps one of the best places to camp in the country. A network of interconnected lochs and rivers run through the land, connecting quaint villages like lowland Comrie and Crieff to Highland Blair Atholl and Aberfeldy. In autumn, Perthshire is the place to be in Scotland to enjoy the colourful foliage.

Loch Lomond

West of Aberfoyle, the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond circle Scotland’s largest body of fresh water. The eternally-popular West Highland Way follows its eastern shores and off the route, Ben Lomond is often the first Munro hillwalkers attempt in Scotland. From its peak, enjoy views across the loch to Ailsa Craig in the Firth of Forth on a clear day. From the top of smaller Conic HIll outside of Balmaha, you’ll get an excellent perspective over the Highland Boundary Fault.

Perthshire

About an hour’s drive northwest from Aberfoyle, Perthshire is nestled in the centre of Scotland between the Trossachs and the wilder Cairngorms. Its welcoming landscape is perhaps one of the best places to camp in the country. A network of interconnected lochs and rivers run through the land, connecting quaint villages like lowland Comrie and Crieff to Highland Blair Atholl and Aberfeldy. In autumn, Perthshire is the place to be in Scotland to enjoy the colourful foliage.

When to go

The traditional tourist season for most of Scotland is May through October. The villages around Loch Lomond and throughout the Trossachs are popular weekend escapes for Glasgow residents. During these peak months you’ll enjoy extra daylight hours and warmer weather, but book campgrounds well in advance and be prepared to deal with crowds. The shoulder season months of April and October are great times to visit, but be sure to check openings before you arrive.

Know before you go

Public transport on this side of Loch Lomond is limited, and having your own vehicle is highly recommended.
Aberfoyle has plenty of restaurants and cafes, along with a co-op shop, as does nearby Callander.
In a west of Scotland summer, bring a midge net and spray to keep the biting beasties at bay.
