About Hilly Cow Wigwams
Escape to the countryside and yet remain a handy 40 minutes from Edinburgh. This site is the perfect countryside escape where you can enjoy days of sight seeing and then retreat back to the peace of your secluded glamping site. Wigwam pods are the perfect way to add a little glamping magic to your camping experience, each sleeping up to five people. The two standard Wigwam pods each sleep up to five with a large bed for up to four people, along with a single bed for one. The standard plus Wigwams are the same, but with the added extra of a private toilet and shower hut next to your pod, and there is a facilities block nearby. There are also three Wigwams, each equipped with two double beds and a single bed, or a table and chairs. You will also have the comfort of your own ensuite toilet and sink with showers in a shared facility nearby. Or, treat yourself to the deluxe pods featuring a TV/ DVD player, a kitchen area with a hob, ensuite showrooms, and even add a hot tub for relaxing evenings under the stars! Inside each of the pods is also a kitchen area with a microwave, fridge, heater, kettle and toaster. Outside you will also have your own picnic bench and fire pit, perfect for toasting marshmallows under the stars. You can even hire the whole site for a fun party or get-together. BBQs and campfires in fire pits are welcome. Dogs are welcome in all of the pods, except for the deluxe Wigwam pods.
Hilly Cow Wigwams is open from 03/01 to 23/12.
Site facilities include a shared amenity block with well-kept showers, toilets and a family shower room, plus a kitchen/diner and a games room. Guests in the ensuite pods have their own self contained toilet and sink, those in the deluxe pods have an ensuite with a toilet and shower. Free WiFi is provided.

Wooden wigwam with refrigerator, microwave and heating. Private bathroom in an adjacent cabin that is accessed from the outside and a table outside for you. We arrived at night and Leslie's husband treated us very kindly and gave us tips for Edinburgh. Relaxed and pleasant stay. In the mornings the cows pass by but it is discreet and not annoying. In the common building there is a complete and equipped community kitchen that can be used, next to the dining room and living room. Barbecues are rented separately, disposable barbecues are not allowed, as it is quite windy. There is a washing machine but you have to reserve. The bed is plastic mats, you have to bring bedding or bags. Incredible views. Translated from Spanish
Lovely place, lovely people

We only stayed one night in the end but it was well worth the visit. Very friendly owners and everything we needed. Stunning views in a laid back environment, we had a BBQ and had a fire - our 12 year old loved meeting the farm animals. Easy access to Edinburgh from here and far more reasonably priced than places in Edinburgh. Would highly recommend and would stay again.
