A note from the site themselves...

Our Journey to Glenshee Glamping started with an idea conceived whilst on our own glamping holiday and is definitely the lifestyle change we were looking for. So, when we knew where we wanted to be, we packed up and moved 500 miles all the way from Sussex to Perthshire.

Like many, we wanted to spend more time as a family and we were keen for our children, Dylan, Finley and Arlo to experience the outdoors on a regular basis, and what better place than Wales. The park also came with a number of animals, as you can imagine taking care of llamas was not in our skill set, neither was chasing around cheeky donkeys and escaping goats.

We have had to learn quickly, but it has generated much learning and laughter, and we continue to create many amazing memories. We look forward to you enjoying our wonderful site, and creating some amazing memories for yourself!

Glamping Pod - Mulberry Glamping Pod (Dog Friendly)Jan 2025

The say at Glenshee Glamping was better then expected. Service was outstanding and the place is very clean. Staff very helpful and friendly, took the time to show us round and answer any questions we had and offered advice on things to do in the area. Would highly recommend and will be booking again in the future. The animals on site were good and would be a site for kids and those who like that kind of thing. Advice: a good torch, as pathways not light and nights are very dark there.

Beautiful campsite
