Caithness Camping Pods offers an off-grid camping pod holiday amongst stunning Highlands scenery, with panoramic views over to Dunnet Head and Loch Watten to the north, and Maiden Pap to the south. Boasting two camping pods, enjoy exclusive use of the whole site in these well insulated hideaways. Open year round.

About Caithness Camping Pods

The pods here enjoy a truly peaceful location set away from it all and placed on the doorstep of Highlands highlights including the North Coast 500, John o' Groats and more. The dark skies are also ideal for stargazing and, in the right conditions, you can see the Northern Lights! Ideally suited to campers who prefer a spacious, cosy and super-insulated hard shell, with double glazed door and window, rather than a tent. You'll be both dry and secure, no matter what the weather, with the convenience of using your own camping gear. Inside are two bed platforms, which can be pushed together to make a large double bed. All you need is your own camping equipment. Dogs welcome, but must be kept on a lead whilst onsite.

Open all year
