The Nest is a glamping cabin with an en-suite bathroom. Located in the grounds of Ardteatle in the Scottish Highlands this gorgeous little cabin allows you to relax, get back to nature, enjoy beautiful views whilst having a bbq. The area has zero light pollution and gives guests the opportunity to get away from their busy lives and relish the local wildlife and magnificent views. Well behaved dogs welcome.
The Nest is spacious enough for 2 but small enough to be cosy. This glamping pod is designed for those looking to enjoy the natural environment, living the outdoor life but with comfortable accommodation to come back to after enjoying a day roaming the stunning Scottish highlands. The pod has a comfy double bed with bedding provided, microwave, mini fridge and a kettle for a morning tea or coffee.
Bathroom with toilet, hand basin and shower.
Outdoor seating, bbq and fire pit. There is uneven ground and some steps in the surrounding grounds.
The Nest does not have a kitchen and is a traditional glamping pod designed to get back to nature.
The Nest overlooks stunning scenery in a secluded spot 2 miles from Dalmally, 15 miles from Tyndrum and 40 mins from Oban. A great stopping off point if you are visiting the islands
We are a pair of happy travellers who are just as happy to share hints and tips with you as we are to leave you in peace.
The glamping pod is situation in a rural area off the beaten track. There is zero light pollution and little to do except enjoy nature and relax while you stay. We are within close proximity to Ben Cruahcan, Kilchurn Castle and some absolutely stunning walks.
We are just off the road to Oban, 15 mins from the West Highland Way.
