The Wee Tree Howf
Unique Treehouse Glamping in Scotland

Experience a Magical Treehouse Retreat in Perthshire

Nestled in Perthshire, Scotland, the Wee Tree Howf is a truly unique glamping retreat. It was our first extraordinary creation in 2014 and has since evolved into a Swiss Family Robinson-style treehouse. Perched above a tumbling burn and beside a tranquil lochan, it offers an unforgettable escape. This peaceful haven is perfect for relaxing and unwinding. To enhance your stay, why not soak in the Ofuru wood-fired hot tub by the lochan? This is available for an additional charge of £30 per night.

Romantic Treehouse Getaway

Despite its name, the Wee Tree Howf offers plenty of space for a romantic glamping experience. Crafted by Ian and Lewis, this treehouse is filled with quirky design features and stunning woodwork. The pond views add to its appeal, making it a truly special retreat. Inside, the wood-burning stove keeps you warm and cosy. Meanwhile, the pulley fridge basket in the burn ensures your drinks stay chilled, ready for a relaxed evening by the fire.

A Tranquil Retreat in Nature

Surrounded by Perthshire’s scenic beauty, the Wee Tree Howf offers an idyllic escape. Whether you’re soaking in the hot tub, listening to birdsong, or watching the sunset, this off-grid retreat promises a magical glamping experience in Scotland.

Hidden within the lush grounds of Craighead Howf, the Wee Tree Howf provides an extraordinary treehouse glamping experience. Whether you seek an adventurous escape or a peaceful retreat, this handcrafted hideaway combines rustic charm with modern comforts.

A Storybook Hideaway

A narrow wooden staircase leads to the elevated bedroom, where breathtaking views await. Just across the small bridge over the burn, you’ll find a private compost toilet and a spacious shower, adding to the unique experience of this treetop stay.

Evenings Under the Stars

As the evening sets in, gather around the fire pit and let nature provide the perfect soundtrack. The gentle bubbling of the burn, the rustling leaves, and the distant call of an owl create an atmospheric retreat. Inside, the wood-burning stove ensures warmth and comfort.

And for a special touch, use the pulley system to retrieve a perfectly chilled drink from the ‘fridge in the burn’.
