About The Loft

Set on a family farm, growing malting barley for the famous local Speyside Whisky, this site is a perfect base for exploring the many attractions of Moray Speyside, from whisky and golf to castles and cashmere to great outdoor activities on land, river and sea and stunning natural landscape of forests and beaches. The Loft is a great site for families and couples and also welcomes groups, by arrangement, and is a fantastic place to celebrate birthdays and family celebrations. There is something for everyone here, all the way from a back to basics pitch without electric for your tent or a comfy electric pitch up to stylish pods - and everything in between. Wigwam pods sleep up to five and offer dog friendly options, plus you can also choose an ensuite Wigwam pod with its own private facilities and wood-fired hot tub options. There are also Couple Wigwam Pods which sleep two. The Sheiling Cabin includes a kitchenette and ensuite facilities, with lots of space to sleep up to five. It even has its own fabulous hot tub! You're sure to find the camping or glamping option to suit your budget.

Millside pods are available between March and October. Camping is available between May and September. The rest of the site is open all year, except for January.

Camping Pod - Millside Family Wigwam Camping Pods Sep 2024

It's good value for money, close to the beach and a fair distance from the mountains and the national park.

Pods were clean, warm and had everything we needed for our stay

Camping Pod - Barnside Ensuite Wigwam Glamping Pods with Hot TubsSep 2024

We had a great time with our 2 granddaughters, we only managed to stay one night as we got caught up in traffic by an accident but enjoyed the night we did stay. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and we got a bit of a later check out as the girls had been flower girls at a wedding in Elgin. The girls enjoyed the hot tub and sheep, and there's a great play area for the kids. We could have explored more but we had a long drive home but would definitely recommend 😊

Site's response

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, so sorry you only got the opportunity to stay one night due to road/accident issues but hope your husband enjoyed the rest when he finally had the chance. Glad that a later check-out helped and that you all enjoyed the hot tub. I hope we can welcome you again.

Lovely quiet site
