Campsites for hikers in The Cairngorms National Park

·

Hiking through The Cairngorms National Park demands a place to rest that’s as rugged or relaxed as you are. You’ll find over a dozen campsites here tailored for walkers—think tent pitches tucked along forest trails, some with hot showers and real toilets, and a handful where campfires are allowed. Average nights run about £59, with options dipping as low as £21 if you’re watching your wallet. The hiking scene is the main draw, but anglers and horse-riders get their fix too. For a reliable base, Cairngorms Glamping and Campsite (29 reviews) stands out for its clean facilities and direct access to footpaths. Bachilton Farm Holidays (3 reviews) offers a quieter farm setting, while The Loft Glamping & Camping (3 reviews) puts you close to both woodland and open moor. Pack for changeable weather—the mountains don’t care about your plans. And always bin your rubbish; the locals do, and so should you.

The Loft Glamping and Camping is situated at East Grange Farm, Kinloss, Moray. It 's a working farm that has evolved over the years to include Wigwam Glamping and Camping for campervans, motorhomes and tents. A number of the old farm buildings have been reppurposed as venue spaces for Weddings, Events and Workshops. The "wilderness" campsite offers pitches suitable for tents and small campervans whilst the Stackyard area is suitable for motorhomes and mega tents. All motorhome pitches have electrical hook-up and we have a good number of electric tent pitches. We also now take bookings for caravans. We do not have fully service pitches Onsite, we also have Original Wigwam cabins which are wooden camping cabins (Pods) that offer all year round protection against the elements. With heating, electricity, fridge, kettle and toasters. For those wanting a bit more luxury there are also ensuite Wigwam Cabins onsite with wood fired hot tubs. We welcome families, groups, well behaved dogs and do allow campfires outside the wigwams and at pitches and can provide fire hubs on the campsite (this must be pre-arranged). The Loft Glamping and Camping looks forward to welcoming you throughout the year!
