About The Lodge

Self-catering Log Cabin in a peaceful & secluded meadow. Tucked under the Scots Pines, in the quiet meadow behind their 200 year old home, the Thomas-Wrights have designed a comfortable log cabin for lovers of the outdoors and open air living. The Lodge has a veranda to relax on with your wine, beer, hot chocolate or a good book! It looks out over the rolling landscape and the huge, ever-changing skies. The simple & comfortable studio room is snugly furnished with bunk beds and a sofa bed, all supplied with bed linen. It sleeps up to 4 people (it can sleep 5, but there is limited floor space if the trundle bed is in use and the sofa bed is pulled out at the same time). There is also a TV and clothes storage. The Lodge has an adjoining kitchenette, separate from the main living space, where you can prepare and eat your food. It is well equipped with all that is needed for a relaxing break or an extended stay. The shower and toilet facilities are shared with the other campers. The number of visitors to this hideaway campsite is kept to a minimum to retain the tranquil, peaceful environment. The Thomas-Wright family are keen environmental enthusiasts, so provision is made for campers to embrace recycling & composting, in order that as little waste as possible goes to landfill

Directions To Site

4 miles from Ellon & Methlick, and 20 miles from Aberdeen & Peterhead, the village of Ythanbank is on the B9005 where the road crosses the River Ythan. Once in the village follow the signposts for Schivas. Immediately after you turn into the Schivas road, driving away from the main body of the village, the 2nd entrance on your right is Smithfield - home of the campsite & log cabin. A long tarmac drive leads you to the house where you book in. We can send you detailed directions from which ever direction you may be travelling. Sadly, we do not accept 'passing trade' so be sure to book in advance!. For location map: Click Here
