The Green Burrow

A Magical Glamping Retreat in Scotland

Welcome to The Green Burrow, where your adventure culminates in a haven of comfort and charm. With its enchanting green round door, this retreat is everything tired Wizards, Halflings, and those with furry feet could wish for after an arduous journey.

A Magical Storybook Retreat

Built seamlessly into the hillside and adorned with grassy roofs and round doors, a stay here will transport you to a magical world straight out of a storybook, where time stands still. Surrounded by breathtaking open views of rolling countryside, The Green Burrow offers endless opportunities to observe wildlife in its natural habitat.

This serene sun trap is perfect for spending hours reading, relaxing, and admiring the picturesque scenery.
