What a wonderful experience! These pods are warm, comfortable and in a very quiet location. And the hot tub was wonderful after a day of fly fishing. What a lovely experience. I would definitely stay again and give it a top recommendation. Tracey was wonderful, greeting us upon arrival. After that we were left on our own.

Concept is great but it is just TOO small. We were tripping over each other and our bag. Also with bed against one wall, was annoying for that person to get out. Comfortable and clean though and location was ok.

A wonderful Speyside holiday destination

Our cabin was a delightful place to spend a few nights while visiting distilleries and walking in the beautiful local countryside. The beds were very comfortable and the addition of the fire pit made the evenings all the more special. Thanks to Tracy for being on hand to help with everything we needed. We hope to visit again soon!

Loved our stay here. Pods are well equipped and surprisingly spacious, more than enough room for our family of four. Site has fantastic views in a quiet location just a short walk from the village. Also appreciated the enclosed garden, giving privacy for using the hot tub and safety for dogs and younger kids. Will definitely be back ❤️

Lovely family holiday

A wonderful holiday for our family. Lovely quiet location with everything we needed. We all had a very comfortable nights sleep and the hot tub was well used. The twinkly lights made the hot tub quite magical at night time. Great location for exploring this area and a quiet haven to return to to enjoy the homely accommodation and very cosy hot tub. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We will be back again! Thank you

This place is beyond excellent. I loved staying here, my absolute favorite place I stayed on my trip in Scotland. It's out of the way but not far away from everything, if that makes sense? It's just the right amount of distance out of town. Its quiet and dark at night, with lots of sky. Great for sitting out on the little deck sipping some Scotch looking at all the stars.
The family that runs the 4 little cottages was super nice and had us talking for a good 30 min just about are trip and us. And in return we told her how much we loved her little cottages. Super easy to talk to and just good people.
Hope to go back one day and stay here again.

This was our best stay in Scotland. The hosts were so lovely and welcoming, and the property itself was fantastic. Very roomy, all the amenities you could want and then some, beautiful views, and a hillside walking path that takes you straight to the center of Dufftown. We were able to walk to the co-op and buy food to make in the fully stocked mini kitchen, though there were many great restaurants nearby as well. It’s very central to the many distilleries in the area. We were able to walk to Glenfiddich and Balvenie, as well as Balvenie Castle. It’s nice to be just outside of town because it’s very peaceful and quiet, just a friendly hillside of sheep next door as neighbors. I cannot wait to come back and stay at Hillside Havens again.

My wife and I recently visited Scotland and Hillside Havens was one of our favorite places we stayed. The well-appointed pods are set on a hillside farm overlooking the town of Dufftown, about a mile from town. Although cozy, there is more space than it appears and the bathroom was surprisingly large. The bed and couch were comfortable with a cute kitchen and in floor heat. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. Outside, you can stroll the meadows by sheep and thru fields of barley that are used by the local Balvenie distillery. Highly recommend!

Unique and fun place to stay

We stayed only one night but wished we would have stayed 2. The host/owner was super friendly and helpful. It’s a short walk into a lovely town and to Glenfiddich distillery. The views are spectacular and it was fun to stay in a tiny house. We had a toddler with us so he slept in our bed but there’s also a pullout couch.
