If you are looking for self-catering in a quiet rural location, whilst still in easy reach of all the main attractions in the area, Tanleys Skye Pod could be just what you are searching for. It is situated within the Cairngorms National Park, just off the A95. Tanleys is 5.8 miles from Grantown-on-Spey, 9.8 miles from Aviemore and 32 miles from Inverness. Accommodation is available for the exclusive use of a couple or solo traveller. Skye Pod is a newly built self contained unit, set in a quiet corner of my garden and offers glamping with style. It is situated near to my home, so I am easy to get hold of, if you need anything during your stay. From Apr-Oct I do operate a small B&B from my home, but I only ever have one group, of 1-2 people at a time and their rooms do not overlook the pod, so it will not affect your privacy. The accommodation consists of a lounge/kitchenette, which has all the equipment you will need for that home away from home vibe. There is a separate bedroom with a UK king-sized bed, a wardrobe and drawers so you can store your belongings. Next to this is a separate bathroom with a standard size shower , toilet and sink with storage and a heated towel rail. The double doors from the lounge lead to a private seating area with rural views and in the distance are the Cairngorm mountains framed by majestic pine trees. Don't fancy cooking your own breakfast, not a problem. The Speyside Centre is less than a 5 minute walk away and they do a lovely breakfast, as well as lunch or coffee and cake.

Hi, my name is Jane Robertson and I brought Tanleys at the end of 2005 with plans one day to retire to the Highlands and in December 2020 that day arrived. I managed to get up just before the last lockdown happened and spent the time getting Tanleys ready for guests, which was challenging but fun. My family is Scottish, and I have loved visiting here since I was a child and even lived in the suburbs of Glasgow for 3 years back in the late 1990’s. However, the Highlands was always the dream, and I am looking forward to sharing my home and my passion for Scotland with you. The other resident here is Skye, a Labrador , born in August 2021. If you are not a dog fan, do not worry she does not come into the guest accommodation, but if you want to say hallo, she is sometimes out in her part of the garden with a warm Highlands welcome. I love walking, water colour painting and meeting new people.

The Cairngorms National Park is the largest National Park in the UK and offers endless things to do all year round, walks to suit all abilities, including the famous Speyside Way, wildlife watching and tours, winter and water sports, fishing in the Spey, many local attractions , stunning drives, even castles. Local Ness is only 45 miles away if you fancy a spot of monster hunting. There is so much to do why not stay a several days and explore, but however long you choose to stay, I look forward to welcoming you to my home and hope you find it as peaceful and relaxing as I do.
