My husband and I have been going to Glenshee since 2017 whilst it was under previous ownership. We have been fortunate enough to have seen the changes and improvements implemented by Nathan and Helena over the last few years and they are as much a reason to book as the facilities provided. They are two of the loveliest people who have put so much time and effort in to giving the space a new lease of life & it has paid off. The showering facilities have been greatly improved & the additions of a play area & additional family activities has been a much welcomed one. There is so much to utilise in terms of activities and extra space to use, the Bothy is super cosy and welcoming with the rustic vibe that you would expect & appreciate in a glamping experience. We have stayed in the Tummelberry Hut, Blackberry Hut and the cosy glamping pods and have utilised additional services including bedding packs & the hot tub. Both huts are spacious, comfortable and presented beautifully, with lovely amenities that make it feel like a home away from home, but that’s how it has always felt at Glenshee Glamping. More recently we have enjoyed the cosy glamping pods & have found this suitable for our needs, the pods are big enough to move freely and comfortably & cosy enough to relax and feel rejuvenated. The hot tubs are a great addition to the site and are super easy to keep heated, we were well informed on how to use ours & were both able to lie comfortably and relax. Glenshee is somewhere we found and booked randomly 8 years ago and now it has provided us the opportunity for escapism, relaxation and reconnection. It is the perfect getaway for anyone and I will never stop recommending it. Rooms: 5/5Service: 5/5Location: 5/5 Hotel highlights Great view, Romantic, Quiet, Child-friendly, Great value

We stayed for 4 days in August, camping in our tents. We've done quite a bit of camping and this is definitely an excellent campsite: small but great attention to detail. The bathrooms were nicer than any I've seen in a campsite - hotel quality and kept spotless. The view across to the hills was fabulous. Although we had our own cooking equipment, it was v handy to have the Bothy: a well-stocked kitchen/dining room with fridge and freezer, plugs for charging phones.
