Would have been nice if the site cafe had been open, especially on New Year’s Eve.

10/10 for the location, it was perfect. There are many trails which you can take and enjoy the long walk into the forest.

Nice location.
One kitchen space between all pods. Other 1 was locked. Had to pay for electricity which we did not know before. Showers cold water. No one to talk to at reception both on arrival and when we left. Door didn't lock.. jey wasn't working to leave anything in pod.

The Pod and facilities were very clean.
The staff were very friendly.
The kids had plenty of space to play, they loved the climbing rope structure ( they called it the spiders web) and the bike track. The walks on site and the surrounding countryside were beautiful. It was a lovey relaxing break.
Can’t think of anything that could have been better.

There were no staff. I had received no communication prior to my visit (I was told I would receive instructions in the event I was unable to check-in during their narrow 4-5pm window for doing so. The place was completely deserted when I arrived shortly after 5pm, so I left (I had no other option) and checked into the Cairngorm Hotel in Aviemore, which was fine.

Great basic, but clean pod with all that my 2 children (9 and 7) and I needed for a fun stay, to be closer for landmark than the 3 hours drive from where we live up north. Bed became massive and perfect for us all to enjoy when extended. Communal cooking areas looked great when we explored, although we didn't use. Toilets clean and good showers. Close to Aviemore and a great wee spot
Only thing I could find if I had to find something was the cool looking wooden climbing frame, ship looking thing being closed. Kids (and I!) Would have loved it. 😃

Location
The kitchen was not equipped to prepare a meal and there were no drinking water closer to pods, if you are with little children you have to prepare everything form home. The shared kitchen only had one electric hob with only two cups and few plates. We managed to prepare our breakfast in the shared kitchen and still enjoyed the quite morning

Very cute and magnificent view!
Okay if I have to mention something I’d say the jubilee building is somewhat outdated.

Loved that the pod was spacious inside and loved the setting. Great big field for the kids to play, loved we were close to the activities we were there for.
Ok for us as we drive but quite far from the main road. Floor in pods looks and feels dirty.

It’s difficult to get any phone signal to check which pods you are in on arrival

Loved the space and all round outdoor experience. The site was beautifully and kept in immaculate condition.
A toaster wld have been a welcome addition but I can understand why there wasn't one in the pod but maybe in the kitchen area wld have been good.

Beautiful, basic but very clean pods. So quiet and just so scenic!
Was extremely hot in the pod overnight but could not open windows or door as we became swarmed by midges. Thousands of them! Maybe some sort of repellent could be included, or perhaps a strong fan in the pod we could use to have a comfortable sleep in the hotter months?

Serene location. Useful sleeping configurations in pod. Responsive and helpful staff!
5.0 / 10.0
Good location for visiting Cairngorms. The pod itself had everything needed and was good that the beds could be changed to make one large one.
Charging people £80 a night when the toilet/showers are covered in mould and the showers can’t be used simultaneously as no pressure or hot water left is a bit of a joke. Much better facilities at the campsite far at the north side of Aviemore and most likely at Glenmore/loch morlich too.

9.0 / 10.0
We had a lovely stay at Badaguish. The camping pods are basic but this is exactly what we were looking for, and the kettle/sockets/fridge were a bonus. The surrounding area is beautiful, and only a 10 minute drive into Aviemore for supplies or dinner. The basic facilities are fine, there are plenty of showers/toilets and even some hotplates and space for eating inside if wanted.
The first shower I tried was kind of broken, I had to switch cubicles so my clothes didn't get soaked.

The location is stunning and the staff are friendly and very helpful
The floor inside the pod was grubby upon arrival, but overall it was fine.
7.0 / 10.0
Everything was brilliant except the bugs, we had to keep the door closed and windows to minimise the bites. Beautiful place though
Bugs surrounding the pods, me and the family got bitten hundreds of times.

Good location in the middle of the forest, nice walks in the area
It is very very “basic”. Like you literally get a pod without anything. You need to get your own bedding, you have to buy your own electricity for the room and the toilets is far away!
I had no idea about all this so had to rent out a sleeping bag from the facility that they charged me £20 for.
Not a place for me.

Pods were lovely well equipped and surprisingly spacious. Surroundings were brilliant
Shower blocks weren't the best but sufficient

We stayed in the Eco Pods. They were excellent. Very clean and comfortable. My 4yo son loved them!! Location was great for Aviemore and to visit Landmark Adventure Park. Would stay again.
Toilets were a little outdated and could maybe do with a refurbishment, however they were clean and the showers had plenty of hot water.
10.0 / 10.0
The pods are located within a short drive to the town and other attractions nearby.
The pod itself was sofas that convert into a big bed with another bed, kettle, and microwave available. When we arrived, there was £2.05 on the electricity, we stayed for two evenings, and on leaving, there was £2.05 still on the meter.
Our first night, we had a fire pit at the allocated area beside the pond. There is a BBQ area there, too.
In the kitchens, there were 3 toilets, two with a shower, two kitchens fitted with two hot plates, a kettle and a microwave, pots, pans, cups, cutlery, washing machine and tumble dryer.
This is our second time here, and we will possibly book again in the future.
