Meikle Balloch - a pod that sleeps 4 guests in 1 bedroom

WE ARE THRILLED TO INTRODUCE THIS LUXURIOUS ECO GLAMPING EXPERIENCE with availability throughout 2023

Located in the beautiful Banffshire countryside, just 3 miles from the small, historic town of Keith in the North East of Scotland, this spacious Eco Pod offers not only stunning uninterrupted views of the surrounding area but also the ultimate in luxury. Boasting both a hot tub house with views across the Moray countryside and glass roof to allow you to experience the night sky at its best, and a BBQ hut with private indoor BBQ and seating. All complemented with a Rain shower and Tassimo Coffee Machine, along with Bathrobes & Slippers to Hair Straighteners provided, with green credentials and free EV charging this is no ordinary glamping experience!

Located almost an equal distance between the cosmopolitan cities of Inverness to the west and Aberdeen to the East, the surrounding area of Moray and Speyside offers a wide variety of experiences and activities for all ages and abilities.
This is Whisky country. The lush, fertile farmlands lend themselves to the growing of crops, much of the grain for use within the Whisky industry. With over half of Scotland's working Whisky distilleries located within the area alongside numerous craft distilleries and breweries. Many of which can be visited along the Speyside Whisky Trail and experience the unique ‘tipple' each creates. Even the driver can have their own ‘nip' to take away!

From fishing to Dolphin watching; Scottish History and culture to beautifully manicured gardens; Scenic walks be it Hill (of which nearby Meikle Ballcoh can be found on the boundary between Moray & Aberdeenshire), forest or coastal and this being Scotland, golf is never far away. With fabulous sandy beaches just crying out for sandcastles to be built, or why not give surfing a try with the locally based New Wave Surf School? Historic castles are aplenty or for those days when the weather is a little inclement then there is nearby MacDuff Aquarium, so there really is something for everyone.

Lovely weekend

We enjoyed the cabin, got tub and barbecue. The cabin was cosy and comfortable. We had a good time looking around the surrounding area.
