Situated within 23 km of Abernethy Golf Club and 23 km of Grantown Museum in Tomintoul, Glenlivet by Wigwam Holidays features accommodation with a kitchenette. With free private parking, the property is 43 km from Balmoral Castle and 16 km from Corgarff Castle. Outdoor furniture is available for guests to relax or dine outside. I'm generally not a person that stays in small huts like this, but I was positively surprised by this one. It isn't the most spaceous, but it was great for the two days we stayed there, and if you're a more wilderness/camping kind of person, I definitely recommend it. The surroundings were lovely woods with some nice walking paths, that especially at night provided some great opportunities for star watching, and the hut itself has a nice little kitchen with everything you need (except maybe an oven, but if you do it right, you can definitely do without that), and a nice and clean shower, the beds were also very comfortable. Every hut also has a fire place outside, and the owners provide firewood upon request, if there is no fire ban at the moment, which can happen if it becomes too dry. I can definitely recommend this if you are looking fora little bit more adventurous stay!
