A unique opportunity for a perfect glamping experience in a quirky converted railway carriage at the disused Cromdale Station, now adjacent to a popular walking route (The Speyside Way) on the old railway line. Situated in the Cairngorm National Park, it is the perfect place to get away from it all, relax and explore this fascinating and beautiful area. The camping coach is a former railway carriage built in 1916 and brought to Cromdale and renovated in 2001. It has two bedrooms, a recently refurbished shower room and a former 'Guard's Van' which is now the living area and has cooking facilities (hob, combi microwave, small portable grill and toaster) but please note no oven. There is a also a fridge with freezer compartment, kettle, cafetiere, sink, seats, table, TV with DVD player and electric/ gas heaters. It is also equipped with books, games and a selection of DVDs. There is a contained garden exclusively for guests' use which includes garden play equipment, rowing machine, picnic table and a table for tray barbecues. We also provide a small bucket bbq.
Just returned from a weekend break here and we have enjoyed every second. Laura is an incredible host, very warm and friendly and easy to communicate with. Our train obsessed son was in his element on the carriage and lived his best life pretending to be a train on the old line all weekend. Having the added bonus of access to the games room was the icing on the cake! Everything was exactly as described and clean and tidy. Thankyou again for having us.
We had a great time in this quirky accommodation. The carriage survived the storm and we were safe and cozy! Great base for visiting Landmark, Aviemore and fishing. If the weather had been better it would have been a good base for walking too. The carriages had everything we needed and communication was great- we even got a cheeky look around the station house- which we would also recommend! Great host and accommodation! Thank you 😊
Fantastic unique place to stay. My partner loves trains and all the little extra details and little touches were great and well thought out. Even on the day where it rained non stop we were able to keep ourselves amused with the great selection of games available. Do recommend bringing warm clothing if you are staying in the colder months, the heat is good but nice to have layers.
The Cromdale Station carriage, is set in a lovely quiet and peaceful countryside location on the edge of the village of Cromdale, very close to the river Spey, within the beautiful Cairngorm National Park. It is only a few miles from Grantown for the nearest amenities such as shops, cafes, restaurants, leisure centre (with swimming pool) etc. There is plenty to do in the area including outdoor activities at local outdoor centres, golf, fishing, walking, cycling, skiing, driving around the beautiful countryside visiting lochs, castles, distilleries (there is a gin distillery open to visitors in the village) etc. There are popular activities for children in the area such as Landmark Adventure Park and the Highland Wildlife Park. It is also only about a 40-50 minute drive to the coast where you can visit the beach at Nairn, Findhorn or maybe go and watch dolphins at Spey Bay. It is also a similar distance to Inverness which is the nearest (and only!) city in the Highlands.
You can explore the area easily by car (take care on smaller roads in wintry conditions) and it is also a great location for walking and cycling. You can also travel by bus (about 10 minutes to Grantown). There are also taxis available from Grantown if you wanted to go out for drinks in the evening. The nearest train station is at Aviemore and you can get a bus to Grantown from there. Please contact us if you require any information or assistance regarding transport.
