What customers say

A secluded, peaceful wild camping spot with good facilities. Spacious pitches with fire pits, friendly owners, and an honesty shop. River access and 4x4 ferry add adventure, but watch out for midges in summer. Great for nature lovers.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked We had a fab stay at Dall cottage. It was my son’s birthday and he loved it. We were lucky with the weather, and were able to sit round the fire pit and toast marshmallows.
Everything was well presented and stunning pitches by the river. Defo stay again.

Ellie S.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked This was such a peaceful campsite with only 4 pitches and comes with your own firepit, next to the river. There's enough space for several tents on each pitch and there's a compostable toilet, shower and an honesty shed where you can buy firewood, snacks and souvenirs. Would definitely book again if I'm in the area!

Liked Beautiful setting, very peaceful and couldn’t see or hear the road over the sound of the rushing water. Only four pitches and we were right at the end so felt as if we were wild camping (except for the fact we had access to a lovely fire pit area and toilets etc!) Best of both worlds. Was great that we could park right by our pitch too.

Disliked Being right next to the water meant the midges were pretty horrendous.

Liked The peaceful location, even though the A9 and railway line are not far away does not take away quiet ambience.The River Garry is next to the pitches and u can also access the fire pits.The couple who run the campsite are lovely people.

Route directions

From the south, stay on the A9 until you see the turnoff signposted Dalnamein to the left. Take the turning and almost straight in front of you you'll see two metal farm gates. Go through the gates (please do close all gates behind you) down the track and park on the right just before the river. Please text in good time prior to your arrival should you need assistance with crossing the river. From the north, look out for the Dalnamein sign to your right 1 mile after the dual carriageway and follow as above.

Local attractions

Local village Blair Atholl is a pretty place to start wanderings off at, for a stroll around the extensive gardens of 13th-century Blair Castle… followed by fish and chips at the town’s acclaimed takeaway. Scottish tweed, other clothing and gifts are all sourceable at the House of Bruar. The Pitlochry fish ladder is a local destination to take your camera along to: this famed fishway has 34 pools in total, including one with an underwater viewing area and CCTV for easy viewing. In town, the Pitlochry Festival Theatre has performances and festivals throughout the year, or if you’re feeling energetic you can strike out on the long-distance Rob Roy Way which runs for 79 miles from Pitlochy to Drymen in Stirling. More walking paths and mountain biking routes are close by, along with walks by Loch Rammel, Loch Errochty and Loch Tummel all within 25 minutes’ drive. More placid options include the zoo and safari park of the Highland Wildlife Park (45 minutes’ drive), Aviemore (55 minutes), Cairngorm Reindeer Centre (also 55 minutes) and Scone Palace (an hour and five minutes). Further afield, get along to Dundee or St Andrews (an hour and 25 minutes and an hour and 45 minutes away respectively), for several castles and Firth of Tay views at the former and some of the most famed golf in the world at the latter.
