Glamping at its best! We have 3 Pods one of which is en-suite and the other two pods share a Kitchen /Toilet and Shower. Our wooden pods are extremely comfortable. Please take your own sleeping bags, or bedding, pillows or hire these from the site at an additional charge. The pods have a raised platform with a luxury permeable mattress. They have modern comforts with heating, TV and fairy lights to illuminate the pod at night. Each pod has its own camp fire and we supply wood and kindle, burgers to cook over the fire etc You are going to experience beautiful open countryside with sheep or cows close by. There is a communal kitchen for cooking. Shared toilet and shower facilities for two pods only. One pod is en-suite number 3

I am from this farming area in Caithness, the people are open and friendly. Caithness is beautiful, plenty open spaces to enjoy walks on Dunnet Beach, Duncansby Stacks & around Dunnet Head. Various boat trips around the coastline or day trip across to Orkney.

We are situated in the North of Scotland. We have 3 Pods which are positioned on the perimeter of our farm in open countryside. We are 10 miles from Wick 10 miles from Thurso and 12 miles from John O' Groats. There are fabulous beaches, walks and coastal paths where you can clearly see the birdlife eg. Puffins, Guillemots and Fulmur and sealife, seals or orcas. The Castle of Mey -The late Queen Mother’s home and gardens. The Puffin Croft near John O’ Groats. Castletown Heritage Centre. This area is abundant in quality produce whether seafood, lamb or beef. There is a selection of excellent eateries in Caithness. Locally produced Whisky, Gin and Beer several of which have been recognised and hold top awards. This area is steeped in heritage and you will find both towns have fabulous museums to explore. Also craft shops to peruse.
