Our touring campsite and glamping pods are dotted about this wonderful and secluded landscape surrounded by natural and arable land. The river ‘Nairn’ can be accessed from the site and in the Spring it’s banks are covered with thousands of bluebells.
It’s a place a world apart from the rush and clutter of the modern holiday experience, with an atmosphere that makes you forget the world outside, and just lounge, ramble, or potter about.
We're committed to giving you a genuinely individual service from first contact to your time staying with us and “contribute to making happy memories every day”.
On Site is an ancient archaeological monument. This monument is locally known as 'Hangman's Cairn' and is an excellent example of a well-preserved Bronze Age Barrow and contemporary surrounding bank. The monument comprises a sub-circular mound, measuring around 25 m in diameter and standing to a height of around 3.3 m.
Our large 12m x 7m hard-standing touring pitches are arranged sympathetically around the Site to allow for different views wherever you pitch up. All these pitches have electricity, and a water tap is shared between two pitches. One hard-standing pitch situated near the toilet block is a dedicated disabled pitch.
The grass pitches are there for the smaller vehicles - roof tents, campervans, small motor homes and very small tents and are located overlooking the nature park and pond. A number of these pitches have electricity. Water taps are shared amongst the grass pitches. For non electric tent pitches you will be shown to a suitable spot.
One of our recent additions to the site is a dedicated ‘Nearly wild camping’ area. Situated slightly away from the other campers, sheltered behind a large hill offering a more relaxed feel for 4x4 vehicles and the likes while still being able to access toilet facilities if required.
Existing Electric grass tent bookings will be on a 10 m x 4 m pitch. It is the clients responsibility to ensure their tent, guy lines and awning fit in this space.
The campsite features 2 Glamping Pods. Sitting outside the pods, facing southwards you look out over the farmland and have direct views to the ancient monument on the site. Each insulated and heated pod sleeps up to two people. There is a small kitchen unit with a sink, a kettle and a toaster. Toilet and shower facilities are close by. All Pods are strictly pet free. No exceptions.
Accessible through a gate from the campground, you and your four-legged friend can take a stroll through the nature park. Walk around the pond and sit and enjoy the views. Dogs are welcome to walk off the lead in this nature park, but we ask the owners to look after their four-legged friends at all times. It goes without saying to please clean up after your dog.
In the pond there are gold fish and many frogs. Fishing this pond is not allowed however feel free to enjoy a refreshing swim.
Our Glamping Pods face southwards looking over the farmland and sleep up to two adults (and one infant but you will need to bring your own travel cot)
There is a small kitchen unit with a sink, kettle and toaster. Cowder and Nairn Pod comes with a bed and mattress, full bedding available to rent at £12 per stay. (Contact the campsite in regards to bedding rental) Toilet and shower facilities are close by.

Gary was very nice. Approachable and gave good advice for our 1st time motorhoming.
Been to this site many times. spotlessly kept by the very friendly site caretaker.little shop in site for the basics .such a peaceful place to visit we will definitely be returning 💯
Booked for 1 night while heading further north, beautifully maintained site and toilets & showers were excellent and clean. Nice area to walk dogs in next to the site. Was happy with the stay I booked it again for the trip back home. Will definitely use again if in the area.
A well kept site, always clean and well kept.Peaceful and quiet, plenty of birds twittering away.Highland cows watching you relax.Clean Toilets and showers.A nice stop on the way through or longer.
An absolute gem of a campsite! Spacious, well laid out, excellent, clean ablutions and showers and a lovely dog walking area too. Loved this campsite and I highly recommend staying here if you are in the area. Very friendly staff too.
Great campsite near nairn and inverness. Fabulous clean and well maintained site. Geared slightly more to hard standing and electric pitches than regular tent campers. Tent field has a few level spots but mainly on a bit of a slope. Staff are excellent. Shop open for 1 hour in morning and 1 hour afternoon but if u need something the warden will open for u. Very basic stock but we got what we wanted. Only change I'd recommend is the ladies toilets are at the back of the potra cabins and u have to walk around the outside which is fenced in. Would be better if was an extra gap/ entrance at the back for ladies as may make some feel safer. Dog friendly site but would be good if could take in the bothy building where u can have bbq.
I visited Cawdor Castle then drove the short distance to Barrow site for a lovely, peaceful two night stay surrounded by fields, farm animals and constant birdsong. The stroll around the nature pond was lovely. The amenities excellent, staff very friendly and helpful. Good value for money. Would recomend
We arrived c430pm and received a really warm and friendly welcome. The site wasn’t too busy and so able to use a different pitch away from other.The site is very picturesque with a nice walk for dogs on site and some short walks to local woodland. Facilities were clean and to a good standard.
Lovely quiet park. We stayed one night, very clean and tidy. The site manager was very helpful and knowledgeable about the local areaNairn beach is a 10 minute drive away and well worth a visit.
