Cruden Bay · Aberdeenshire
A hand-decorated Romany wagon and a hidden woodland cabin, yours alone for the stay — hot tub, pizza oven and sauna included. Ten minutes from the wild North Sea coast.
Welcome
The LilyPod began as a dream: a Romany-style glamping stay built with our own hands, filled with the kind of thoughtful, slightly witchy detail that turns a weekend away into a story you tell for years. Every corner has been decorated with fairy lights, folk art and found treasures — from the Toad House sign at the door to the fortune-teller poster tacked above the stove.
When you book, the whole site is exclusively yours: no other guests, no shared paths. Just you, the wagon, the hot tub, and the quiet.
"Soul of a gypsy, heart of a hippie, spirit of a fairy."
One booking, exclusively yours
A genuine Romany bow-top wagon, hand-decorated inside with rich fabrics, fairy lights and folk-art charm. Climb the little steps into a proper double bed and fall asleep under a curved wooden ceiling.
Your kitchen and snug, tucked in its own timber cabin under the trees. Wood-burning stove, tea and coffee, and everything you need to cook up something good after a day at the coast.
A cosy second cabin for well-behaved four-legged guests, or extra space for your things. The whole site is yours for the stay, so bring the dog.
A private, fully-plumbed bathroom pod with a hot shower, so there is no need to rough it — this is glamping, not camping.
We have everything you need
Yours to light and soak in under the Aberdeenshire sky.
Bring your own toppings and make a night of it.
Tucked into the trees for a proper unwind.
Stories, sparks and dark skies once the sun goes down.
Plus free high-speed WiFi, private parking, and a fully-equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, fridge-freezer and air fryer.

Cruden Bay & beyond
We're a short walk from the village of Cruden Bay, with its sweeping beach and championship golf course, and a few minutes' drive from the ruins of Slains Castle and the dramatic sea cliffs at the Bullers of Buchan. Stay in and soak in the hot tub, or go exploring — either way, you won't be short of something beautiful to look at.
