The crunch of gravel under your boots, the granite glint of Aberdeen in the morning light, and a proper bed waiting after a day exploring Scotland's northeast coast.

Fourways offers both guest house rooms and camping pods, so whether you're after four walls and a cooked breakfast or something closer to sleeping under canvas, there's a middle ground here. It suits couples touring the Cairngorms fringe, solo travelers using Aberdeen as a base for Dunnottar or the whisky trail, and anyone who wants a foot in both the hospitality and outdoor camping worlds. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth a call ahead if you're bringing one along.

The setup is straightforward — pods for those who want their own space without pitching a tent, guest house rooms for full comfort. Campfires need checking on arrival, so don't assume. Open all year, which matters this far north when weather turns. It's a practical, no-fuss spot that does what it says: a bed, a roof, or something pod-shaped in between.

Causey Mounth

Traces an ancient drovers' road across moorland between Deeside and the Mearns, with steady climbs and exposed ridgeline sections offering sweeping views towards Lochnagar. The rough, often boggy terrain makes it challenging for families – definitely not suitable for buggies, and young children would struggle with the distance and conditions. Dogs welcome but keep close during lambing season. A rewarding hill walk steeped in history, best tackled by confident walkers with proper boots and weathe
