Not Glamping as I know it.
Their definition of Glamping clearly differs from mine. It was basically a large barrel with hard vinyl cushions that you lie on. One of the overhead lights didn’t work and neither did the one outside the door so getting up in the middle of the night and not falling over was a challenge. The area is lovely though. I just think for the money they could include WiFi in the huts make the huts a little more “glamorous”.

Better facilities than many campsites
Over all we enjoyed our stay. We particularly liked that the 17 bus from Inverness would stop outside at request leaving and going to the hostel. The kitchen was suitable for our needs and the showers were hot and quite clean. We stayed for 1 week at the site. The first few days in Hagrid's hut. We thought the hut could be improved regarding the mattress and bedding. The Hobbit hut was exactly what we should have booked in the first place. Nature walks near by, and a good remote location to escape from the city. Come prepared with mosquito repellent.

Bathrooms were shared by men and women as well as showers. Property was full of trash surrounding huts. My friend had to throw away a rotten quart of milk someone left on porch of the hut we rented. Trash all over property especially in front of toilet area and showers. It was very unkept. We called the number for help with a minor issue and no one returned our call. Only one light worked in the pod. I flipped over mattress to put on a sheet and there was mold and dust all along the frames of the wall where sleeping matts go. We were so excited booking this spot and were so disappointed.upon arrival. The only nice thing about this spot was the creek. Please don't waste your hard earned money staying here.

On arrival I had no way to get into the pod as had not been given any information. The shower block wad disgusting from the outside I didn't even venture in. The garden. Mud. The outside of pod covered in cobwebs. Inside. Floor had been mopped. Mattresses were really thin. I found a phone number and some random guy came down to tell me I should have been notified how to get into pod. If I had I would not have needed to contact them. He stayed for approx 2 minutes and walked away while I was trying to ask a question. I left after 30 minutes after finding other accommodation. This place should be demolished. Obviously Expedia do not check properties they are advertising. If Expedia would like photos I have a few. Didn't stay long enough to take more. It's disgusting. Please avoid at all cost.

BEWARE- must supply own bed linens and towels
Well- if I could give this experience 0 stars I would. Less than an hour after I booked this non- refundable stay- the place emailed me and said the customer had to supply all the bedding and towels. I don’t have a problem with this concept. I have a HUGE problem with neither Hotel.com nor BCC letting me know BEFORE booking that I needed to supply the bedding and towels. We were traveling for over 2 weeks and did not have the space to carry our own bedding. If I had known, I would never have booked this location. Within 1 minute of receiving this email that I had to supply this stuff on my own, I tried to contact both Hotels.com and BCC to ask to get a refund. Hotel.com said it is up to the property. The property NEVER RESPONDED to my requests. I had to eat the costs of the booking and book another place. Again, the place looked super cute on Hotels.com, but be aware- they only tell you after they you have to supply your own bedding.

Great value
One of the messages from the property didn't come through, the one that gave decent directions. Several places en route looked like they were the property. It took a while, but we eventually found it. Apparently there's a kitchen on site, but we only found one in the hostel across the street? Had a hard time finding the switch to turn on the hot water, I tried messaging the property, but it was late and I never got a response. The switch was pretty big by the showers, I probably missed it since I was tired. The cabin was a little dingy, maybe a bit of mold on the ceiling. But for the price (1/3 the price of a real hotel within 100 miles)it was still a great value for warm showers and taking a break from tent camping.

Unless you've a car or get a bus (which i suspect are few and far between) you'd struggle to get there unless you were walking. The pod itself was okay but could do with a lick of pain and tidying up a bit, as could the toilet block. There was no signage and further out than we thought. We'd a lovely view of the river and the kids liked it, however as a parent staying with 2 kids it was unnerving that there was no staff presence or security measures, It was fine for something different for the kids and a one night stay, maybe more suited for backpackers or someone needing somewhere small for a stop over for a night

Pod 1 I stayed in was terrible, unliveable, disgusting, the property was not well maintained, the lock on the door was definitely not safe as it has previously been knocked off and a bolt in place of it. The noises of the rats in the pods was terrifying I ended up not being able to stay there for the duration of my time. The owner of the place did not give a toss and was so rude on the phone when we phoned to complain! Thankfully the lady that worked there was nice and was able to move me into the hostel over the road which was 100x times. The pod 1 had a smoke alarm that was hidden underneath bedding that had been left from previous customers and it had been all peed on by rats. This is no way to run a business. The whole place was just unkept and would recommend anyone to NOT stay there. It’s not worth the money find something nicer, safer, and cleaner.

Booked for a family of 4. Arrived at a seemingly desolate glamping site including a smashed up, abandoned car! We were alone in a place that seemed to have fallen on hard times. For safety, we left and put this one down to experience.
