We look forward to welcoming you to our stylish self-catering Glamping pod in North Connel situated just a short walk from the shores of Loch Etive, where you can enjoy stunning views across the water to Ben Cruachan. Perfect for couples for a romantic getaway or solo travellers who are looking for a well earned break, it’s a peaceful base for exploring Oban, the Highlands, and nearby islands. Enjoy modern comforts, a cosy interior, and the beauty of the Scottish countryside right on your doorstep.
On waking each morning, enjoy coffee on your private deck and breathe in the fresh Highland air. Relax as much as you like or plan an exciting adventure for the day.
Inside, you’ll find everything you need - a plush European sized double bed, en-suite, a kitchen with a range of cooking facilities and a living area including sofa and dining table. Outside there is a garden with decking and seating where you can also choose to dine al fresco.
Private parking is on site with plenty of space. From the pod, it’s just a short walk down to the loch through pretty woodland, where you may catch sight of deer, otters, seals, herons and even sea eagles.
Guests have exclusive use of the glamping pod and private outdoor seating area. Free parking is available on-site. Check-in is contactless for your convenience, and we’re just a message away if you need anything during your stay.
Please note, the pod is situated on a gentle slope with steps leading up to the entrance. It’s designed for adults, so we’re unable to accommodate children or pets.
WiFi is provided, but as we’re in a rural area, speeds can vary. Finally, while Loch Etive is just a short walk away and lovely for photos or a peaceful stroll, we strongly advise against swimming due to strong and unpredictable currents. Your safety is our priority.
