Why you'll love it at Caithness Camping Pods


About the site


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.
