Pod 2

Kiltarlity 2 miles.

Pod 2 is a traditional pet-friendly pod resting in Glaickbea near Kiltarlity, Scottish Highlands.

Offering serene woodland vistas and shared barbecue space with a fire pit, this space is perfect for a solo traveller or couple seeking an escape to the countryside.

Pull in and park the car, then make your way along the gentle gravel path as you soak in the surroundings, the soft crunch beneath your feet guiding you toward the pod’s wooden curved exterior where a small bench and coat hook sit ready for use.

As one of two pods on a purpose-built site designed to blend naturally into the woodland, it opens into a warm, neat studio where a dining table for two encourages slow mornings and serene evenings, and the bed benefits from overhead storage that helps keep belongings neatly tucked away.

The kitchen area features a wooden worktop crafted from timber gathered on the grounds, adding a sense of place as you prepare simple meals, while the shower room brings character through patterned tiles that create a refreshing space after time spent exploring the Highlands.

Outside, a covered deck invites you to pause with a warm drink as the trees sway gently around you, before stepping into the meadow where wild orchids bloom in spring, butterflies flutter among the grasses and roe deer, pine martens, foxes, rabbits and badgers are known to visit.

The surrounding woodland includes ancient Caledonian pines and stretches across 28 acres for guests to wander freely.

A short stroll reveals a shared octagonal-roofed structure with open sides where the scent of wood mingles with the warmth of a barbecue, and a fridge keeps ingredients close at hand while you cook beneath its shelter, making it an easy place to unwind alone or gather with others as the evening settles in.

With its woodland setting, outdoor spaces and convenient access to the wider Highland landscapes around Beauly and Inverness, Pod 2 provides a restful base for a gentle rural escape.
