Shepherd'S Loch Glamping in Turriff: Photos and Reviews

Shepherd'S Loch Glamping provides 6 room types, from yurts and boat conversions to hobbit-style houses and private bothies. Each family room has a private bathroom, kitchenette, and parquet floors with a terrace and outdoor furniture. The Dragonfly yurt includes a comfy mattress and wood burner, while the Beehive and Wheel House offer private, wood-fired hot tubs and covered barbecue areas.

Guests have free use of rowing boats, canoes, paddleboards, and fishing rods on the property's private lochs. The site has a wood-fired sauna, a communal games room with pool table and darts, and a shared lounge with piano and guitar. A well-stocked honesty shop sells essentials, local produce, and firewood, while the vegetable patch allows guests to pick their own fresh vegetables.

Shepherd'S Loch Glamping offers a children's playground, indoor play area, kids' outdoor play equipment, and a games room. The farm has Highland cows, pigs, and sheep that children can see, and the owners give guided farm tours. Guests can toast marshmallows around campfires, use the zip line, and take part in sheep herding with the farmer.

The glamping site is on a working farm 42 km from Huntly Castle, 13 km from Delgatie Castle, and 28 km from Fyvie Castle. Aberdeen Airport is 61 km away, and the Banff coast with cliffs, coves, and beaches is a 10-minute drive. Guests can walk to Dalgety Woods for dog walks or visit the towns of Gardenstown, Crovie, and Portsoy along the coastal route.

Guests have free access to the wood-fired sauna and the wood-fired hot tubs in selected rooms. The Healing Hut on site offers a full Swedish massage by appointment with therapist Laura. After a day on the loch or farm, the sauna and hot tub provide a quiet, off-grid end to the day.
