The morning air here tastes of pine resin and distant heather, with the River Beauly murmuring through the glen below and red squirrels working the Scots pines above your lodge door.

These timber chalets and camping pods suit couples chasing a quiet Highland escape or families wanting a proper base for exploring the Great Glen without the faff of tent pegs in rocky ground. Kiltarlity sits in that lovely in-between — ten minutes from Inverness practicalities but utterly wrapped in forest and farmland, with Beauly a short drive for provisions and the ridge walks around Glen Affric or Loch Ness pulling at you from all sides. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you've got one.

Facilities aren't detailed, so confirm what's in your pod or chalet when you book — most Highland lodges run self-catering with their own kitchenettes and heating. Campfires may be allowed depending on conditions, so check when you arrive. The vibe is secluded and sylvan, the kind of place where you lose phone signal gladly and remember why you came north in the first place.

Great Glen Way - alternative via Carn na Leitire

Climbs steeply through forest to summit viewpoint at Carn na Leitire before rejoining the main Great Glen Way – a worthwhile detour for confident walkers seeking Highland vistas over Loch Ness. Not suitable for buggies or young children due to rough terrain and sustained ascent. Dogs welcome but keep on leads near livestock. The panoramic reward at the top makes the leg-burn worthwhile, offering classic Scottish scenery without the crowds of the main trail.
