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.

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.

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.

Weekend Trip to Cairn Meadow Pods

Loved our first pod experience. Very warm and cozy. Facilities were great! Directions were a little confusing at the start as the sat-nav took us to the house a little distance up the road but once we knew our place it was absolutely fine. Would stay again and will be recommending to family & friends.

What a beautiful place! Everything we could possibly need was there for us on arrival; the pod was lovely and cozy and it was great to be able to sit out around the firepit in the evening. Birdsong everywhere and plenty of wildlife to see around the place. Sadly it was a bit wet to try the boat out but will have to come back on a sunnier day!

4 nights at Loch Katrine Eco Camping

The pods were clean, comfortable, spacious and well equipped. Unfortunately the fly screen for our door was broken so it was a choice of being gnawed on by midges or being very hot- we chose the heat which was a bit uncomfortable but a fan had been provided which helped. The views were incredible of the loch and mountains and the walking and cycling just stunning. It's a little public with it being next to the main path but if you aren't looking for seclusion then it's fine and we found it vibrant and interesting watching the boats and people coming and going. The food in the cafe was excellent and we enjoyed the take away option, it does close fairly early so best to get there before 5:15pm. All in all it was a beautiful spot and very good accommodation and we had a brilliant time.

These pods are lush. There’s everything you’ll need (except bedding for the sofa bed - which is absolutely fine). It’s a beautiful location too. There were a few little bottles of wine on the table when we arrived, which was a lovely touch. Would definitely recommend.

3 nights at Highland & Transylvania Glamp. Pod

The pod was very clean and organized. The hosts came in and tidied up and left clean towels just like a hotel. They also gave us a tour when we got there and explained how the shower and door lock works instead of us having to use trial and error. The pod has plenty of storage space under the bed and all of the appliances work. Definitely will stay there again. The space is okay for two people, but probably not three.

Glamping pods near Dunfermline guide

Where to go

Kinross

A 15-minute drive north of Dunfermline, Kinross is situated on the shores of Loch Leven. Home to the Loch Leven National Nature Reserve and tiny Castle Island, from where Mary Queen of Scots made a dramatic escape, the area is a hit with nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike. Gallowhill Camping and Caravan Park has plenty of pitches for tents, motorhomes, caravans and campervans.

Saline

Five miles northwest of Dunfermline, Saline is a quaint little village that is known for its well-preserved 18th-century cottages and views toward the Ochill Hills. Just north of the village, in the countryside, Eastfield Farm is a working farm with a small number of grass and hardstanding pitches for tents and motorhomes. Campers will enjoy easy access to the Ochils’ hill-walking opportunities.

Dunning

Heading north into Perthshire, around a 35-minute drive from Dunfermline, the small village of Dunning is surrounded by hills and glens. The small working family-run Greenhill Farm is home to cows, sheep, chickens and peacocks and offers a glamping experience in their handbuilt shepherds’ huts.

When to go

The weather in Dunfermline, and all around Fife, is generally temperate, making it possible to visit throughout the year. July is typically the warmest and sunniest month, while January is the coldest and the wettest. Dunfermline does not experience the large crowds of tourists that fill up Edinburgh and other parts of Scotland in July/August, so summer is the ideal time to visit for long daylight hours and enjoying the outdoors.

Know before you go

Some private campsites in the area are seasonal: check opening dates before traveling.
The weather in Scotland is changeable, even in summer. Come prepared with warm, waterproof clothing.
Dunfermline is a 40-minute direct train journey from Edinburgh. Transfers are typically required for journeys elsewhere by train or bus.
You can easily stock up on groceries and find gear in Dunfermline’s shops.
