The rattle of a sash window opening onto Moray birdsong — Kilmorie House sits in Elgin's quiet streets, more guest house than traditional campsite, with a handful of camping pods tucked into the garden for those who want a roof overhead without the full B&B commitment.

This one suits couples after a base for the whisky trail, walkers exploring the Moray coast path, or anyone who wants a proper bed after wild-camping further north and fancies a night indoors. The pods offer a middle ground — your own space, sheltered sleeping, but still that sense of being outside when you unzip the door in the morning. Elgin itself is handsome and low-key, cathedral ruins at its heart, Speyside distilleries in every direction.

Facilities aren't listed in detail, so it's worth asking ahead what's shared and what's private — same goes for dogs and campfires, both worth checking on arrival. It's open year-round, which makes it a solid winter bolhole when the hills turn white and most campsites close their gates. Expect a quieter, more genteel stay than a field full of tents — this is Moray hospitality with a hint of the outdoors.

Moray Coast Trail

Stretches 72km along the dramatic Moray Firth coastline with mostly flat, easy terrain on clifftops, beaches and coastal paths. Suitable for families in sections, though the full trail is a multi-day commitment; buggies work on firmer stretches but not clifftop sections. Dogs welcome throughout. Highlights include fishing villages like Cullen and Portknockie, stunning rock formations, dolphin-spotting opportunities, and sweeping views across to the Black Isle—ideal for wild coastal scenery witho
