The scent of a proper cooked breakfast drifts through the morning air, mingling with the quiet creak of floorboards in this traditional guest house that's opened its garden to a small number of camping pods.

This suits campers who want the freedom of sleeping under canvas — well, timber and canvas — but fancy the option of a hot shower indoors and perhaps a full Scottish or English breakfast without firing up the camp stove. Dog owners should ask ahead, as policies may vary between the pods and the main house. It's a slightly unusual hybrid setup, bridging the gap between wild camping and a proper B&B stay, so ideal if you're testing the waters or travelling with someone who's less keen on a tent.

The pods themselves keep things simple, and you'll want to check the campfire rules when you arrive — they may depend on the season or conditions. Open all year, so it's a reliable backup even in the depths of winter when most campsites shut their gates. Expect a quieter, more personal feel than a big commercial park, with the comfort of four walls nearby if the weather turns.
