What our guests say

  • "These Glamping pods look incredible online, but nowhere near as magical as in person! We arrived as night was falling and were taken a back at how beautiful and special the site and Glamping pods were. All the fairy lights were lit up and designed in such a way that each pod was private and felt secluded from anyone else." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Fay Stojakov

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • "Amazing 2 nights spent in the Majors lodge. True glamping with a beatiful cabin, comfortable bed and a wood fired hot tub. The interior of the cabin is so comfortable but so well designed with high quality materials and amenities. We were looked after by our hosts from check in to check out but it was also a secluded and relaxing experience. I would definitely recommend it as a place to relax and unwind or as a base to explore the beautiful countryside." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Karl Gerhardt

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • "My partner and I have just returned from a lovely stay at Culdees. The pods are lovely, very cosy and very well equipped. We had the hot tub both nights and can’t recommend this enough! The location is great and a great base to explore the local area, however when in the pod you feel perfectly secluded and are able to switch off and enjoy the nature surrounding you. This is the perfect escape." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Claire Grant

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • "Spent a few nights here recently, can’t praise the place the location and the owners (Tracey & Rob) enough. The pictures really don’t do it justice. We were blown away by what we saw when we first arrived. The weather wasn’t kind to us on our second day but that didn’t take anything away from our visit. If you’re looking for time away from everyday madness then book in to one of their glamping pods. Oh and order the breakfast hamper it’s delicious." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • "The lodges at culdees estate are fantastic. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway in a top end glamping lodge then this is place to book! Service was great, surroundings are breath taking, and the hosts couldn't be more friendly. We will be back without a doubt." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    David Mair

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • "Our pod was fab, it looked like something straight out of the Hobbit! Compact and cosy with everything you could need in gorgeous surroundings. Extremely peaceful within a lovely secluded setting with hot-tub and seating and BBQ area. An added bonus was the owners super friendly cats who popped by for a visit. Will definitely be back, looking forward to visiting in the summer." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Nicky Hunter

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • "My husband and I have just spent 2 nights in this little slice of heaven. Tracy and Rob were the most welcoming when we arrived. The hot tub is amazing loved sitting in there with a Prosecco on the dark cold nights. We will absolutely be returning here again." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Caroline Dyce

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • "Tracey & Rob were brilliant hosts. The cabin was amazing! The decor is lovely, well equipped and so cosy. We thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility, taking in all of the scenery and wildlife. The hot tub was great and Rob made sure it was lit for us when we returned from a wet & cold but lovely day out in Edinburgh. The location is great - lots of walking spots but also close enough to some great towns/cities. We will definitely be returning and can’t recommend Culdees Castle Estate enough. Thanks again!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Emily Deeley

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • "What a wonderful little oasis in rural Perthshire. Attention to detail is fantastic; this is glamping with emphasis on the GLAM. We stayed in one of the larger pods (Horton) and the set up was simply stunning. Tranquil view, beautifully decorated and kitted out, great facilities (hot tub, BBQ, fire pit), lovely touches (outdoor lighting), and a big focus on signposting and incorporating local amenities and businesses (things to do, BBQ & breakfast hampers, produce, restaurants, etc). Also great to see what Rob and Tracey are trying to achieve with the estate house. Will definitely be back!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
