110km from Inverurie · 7 units · Motorhomes, Glamping
Welcome to Fernlea. We would love to have you visit us, either on our 5 pitch campsite for motorhomes and caravans, or in 2025 to our new luxury glamping pod.
Fernlea is our home in the heart of an agricultural plain called “The Carse of Gowrie,” which runs for 20 miles or so along the River Tay between Perth and Dundee. It’s a beautiful area that we hope you will love too.
We are a short walk from the village of Errol, with access to lovely walks along the Tay. We are adjacent to the local bus route (just stick your arm out!), the Sustrans cycle route 77, plus only a mile or so from the A90 Perth to Dundee / Aberdeen road. We are perfect for both a short stopover and a longer break with a fascinating local area to explore.
All pitches have hard standing, water on each pitch, grey waste disposal adjacent to the pitch, and a 10 or 16 amp electric supply with a chemical toilet waste tank with rinsing tap behind our garage.
We are also within easy access to Fife and the southern area of the Highlands. Walkers and bird watchers will find many footpaths by the River Tay and can climb the local hills to see buzzards, hawks, ducks, and migrating geese throughout the seasons.
Any visitors requiring repairs or accessories for their van will find the large Perthshire Caravan dealership nearby. Every Sunday, one of Scotland’s largest car boot sales and markets is held less than a mile away.

Weekend Trip to Fernlea - Campsite & Pod
Staying at Bruce’s house was an absolute pleasure! He was so incredibly helpful and kind and the pod is perfect. I would live there for the rest of my life if I could! The kitchen is great. The hot tub is beyond belief and so good that it’s almost intoxicating. When my boyfriend and I accidentally reset the Internet, Bruce was beyond kind and helpful. Next time I’m in this area I will for sure Be staying here again.

The Airstream is an absolute beauty and an amazing place to stay. A nice bbq allows for some outdoor cooking and when inside, the record player sets the mood. A nice walk to the moors with amazing views of the Cairngorms can be done right from the doorstep.

Cairngorm Glamping 🩷. This is a beautiful place to stay, with friendly, chilled hosts. Tucked in among the hills of Upper Donside, the view towards the Lecht is lovely … morning or evening. The surrounding countryside is magical. The site has several fields set up for tents / vans / Motorhomes, with or without services.
The animal park is very sweet, with goats who seem to spend all day teasing each other and an adorable donkey who wants to talk to everyone 🥰 … the zip-line park was popular with kids of all ages and there’s a food bothy if you don’t feel like cooking.
Shower and toilet facilities are clean and well located. They never seemed to be “busy” even though we were there before and during Lonach Gathering weekend.
Grey and waste water services are well placed for Motorhome access.
As a Scot who lives overseas, I love that places like Cairngorm Glamping exist. They showcase the scenery and provide camping access to areas of countryside that might otherwise be missed by visitors.
Just wish we’d had time to stay longer … but will return! 🥰🩷🙏

It would take less time to write what didnt stand out.
This is the best, most well kept Campsite we have been to. The fields are really well kept with the most beautiful surroundings. Good Big pitching spaces. Facilities kept clean and always stocked. The Little Critter is a bloody brilliant idea, you can buy feed and go into the first pen and feed the goats, llama and alpaca. There is also a donkey, ponies and a horse, and some chickens.
The owners have 4 amazingly friendly dogs. So beautiful and love attntion. 2 of them stay in their garden an want you to throw the ball. Theres a wee shop if you need summit last minute.
The washing stations for dishes and the showers etc all have hot - YES - HOT water. There is a massice connect 4 game, swing sets, quiditch poles, a flying fox, an inground trampoline, a sandpit with toys, bikes and go karts all available for the kids and older kids etc. picnic tables.
They also provide off the ground fire pits, (there is no time that you have to put it out or get to bed, just be respectful) If you need wood you can take it and pay the next day.
Hot rolls and coffee are available in the morning to buy.
Robert and his wife and team are all absolutely lovely and nothing is too much. Robert even helped to move my sisters car off a ledge when she missed some signs saying to not turn 🫣😁.
The best part as if all of the above was not enough.... NAE MIDGES ❤️ Thank you so so much for an amazing wee break away.

Campsites near Inverurie guide
Where to go
Kintore
Fans of ancient history should visit Kintore, lying on the southwest bank of the River Don south of Inverurie, which is home to another carved Pictish stone. Golfers can play a round at the Kintore Golf Club and walkers can embark on a number of trails through the forests that surround the town. Hillhead Caravan Park has pitches for tents and tourers.
Insch
More Pictish stones await in Insch, northwest of Inverurie. The village is home to the Picardy Stone, believed to date from the seventh century. There’s also an 18-hole golf course in Insch and the village centre is the beginning point of the 19-mile (31-kiometre) Insch to Oyne cycle route. The Coachhouse Camping and Caravanning Club Site has a handful of pitches for tourers and tents.
Ellon
Northeast of Inverurie, Ellon is known for its stately home, Haddo House, which visitors can explore and wander around the sprawling estate’s gardens and deer park. You can also visit the BrewDog brewery and the famed company’s original bar. Nearby Newburgh and the Ythan Estuary are great for spotting wildlife, including eider ducks and seals, and taking a walk along the coast. Tucked into a meadow close to Haddo House, Ythan Vally Campsite has peaceful tent pitches.
When to go
This corner of northeast Scotland is said to enjoy half the rainfall of the rest of the country, making it a year-round destination. For wildlife spotting, long daylight hours and enjoying landscapes covered in colourful wildflowers, spring and summer are your best bets. However, there’s always a chance of catching a glimpse of the northern lights in the winter months (if you don’t mind the chilly temperatures).
Know before you go
- Wild camping is permitted throughout Scotland, as long as you follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
- Inverurie train station has direct links to Aberdeen and Inverness. Local buses can get you around most nearby places of interest.
- Inverurie has several supermarkets and camping shops, where you should find everything you need.
