The Old Pine Yurt sits in a secluded hillside location with a backdrop of birch woods, trilling birdsong and the sound of the river rushing through the strath below. The roomy yurt with its wood-burning stove, along with the cosy hut next door, make this the perfect venue for a unique back-to-nature experience for two.
Situated within the world's most northerly Dark Sky Park and on the NE250 and Snow Roads driving routes
Recharge your batteries under an ancient Scots pine tree in the foothills of the spectacular Cairngorm mountains. Our handcrafted yurt offers rustic, private accommodation, with a touch of luxury, in a magical woodland setting.

This is our very special little piece of Scotland, and we hope you’ll enjoy sharing it with us for a while.
NOW TAKING BOOKINGS FOR 2021!
The past year has been a bit of a rolleroaster for most people, and not least for us at the Old Pine Yurt, which didn't open at all in 2020. However, we are now ready to take on the 'new normal' and will be back in business from 1 April 2021, with Covid-19-proofing in place. We shall soon be publishing details - here, and on our Facebook page - of our cleaning regime, and other measures we'll be taking to ensure our guests' comfort and safety. If you'd like to get away from it all for a restful 'chill in the hills', do check our 'Availability' page for free dates .
WELCOME BACK!
