Highland & Transylvania Glamp. Pod

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.

Overview

On the western edge of Cairngorms National Park, Invereshie and Inshriach National Nature Reserve presents the grandeur of that mighty park in miniature. Take to the trails that lead through peaceful pinewoods to exposed ice-sculpted mountain slopes for excellent views of the Cairngorms while looking out for such wildlife as red squirrel, pine marten, crested tits, and crossbill. The reserve culminates in the high mountain plateau and windy peaks of Sgòr Gaoith and Carn Bàn Mòr where dotterel, ptarmigan, and mountain hare steel themselves against the cold. Camping is not permitted in recreational areas, but Aviemore campsites and the Spey Bridge area are both under a 30-minute drive away.

When to go

The reserve is open all year-round. Spring is best for wildlife, including crossbill, dotterel, ptarmigan, and red and roe deer, as well as the occasional golden eagle and peregrine. Summer is best for hillwalking or mountaineering. In autumn, the heathland blazes with purple heather and the spectacle of rutting red deer stags. Winter is the time for peaceful wanderings through a snow-covered landscape. Summer is peak visitor season in the Cairngorms, though February and March are also popular with snowsport enthusiasts.

Know before you go

This nature reserve is important for wildlife so visitors should visit responsibly, following the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
There are no marked trails on the reserve, but an easy-to-follow mountain path from the parking lot follows Allt Ruadh for 3.7 miles to the summit of Sgòr Gaoith.
The closest bus stop is at the end of the B970 road, about six miles from the reserve. The Heather Hopper bus service provides connections throughout Cairngorms National Park. The closest railway stations are in Kingussie and Aviemore, both six miles away and on the Perth to Inverness line.
The weather in the Highlands is always changeable. Bring warm, wet-weather gear, even in summer.
