Grande escale sur une petite route près de la distillerie Dalwinnie. Belle vue sur les montagnes. Très calme

Big lay-by off a minor road close to the Dalwinnie distillery. Nice view of the mountains. Very quite.

Großer Rastplatz an einer Nebenstraße in der Nähe der Dalwinnie-Brennerei. Schöne Sicht auf die Berge. Sehr leise.

    Very quiet, barely any cars pass at night. A little bit on a slope but it’s worth it for the quietness and lovely view in the morning across the mountains. It was a bit cold compared to other locations we stayed but I’m guessing that’s because it’s higher. (No midges In mid September 5-10 degrees and rain)

    Prima plek voor een nachtje. Dit was onze eerste spot in de Highlands toen we uit Edinburgh kwamen. Slapen omringd door de heuvels, heerlijk. Afhankelijk van de wind hoor je de A9 wel goed. Plek is aan een weg, ‘s nachts vrijwel geen verkeer maar toen wij aankwamen, reden er af en toen auto’s langs. Niet erg, maar het valt op in de stilte.

  • 4/5

    Prima plek. Mooi uitzicht, stil, erg donker en vlakke ondergrond (grind). Zou zeker terugkomen, vooral na whiskey-proeverij bij Dalwhinnies (2 km wandelen).

  • 3/5

    The place is cool, not gonna lie. Flat, safe, far from A9 and train. But man, don't come here in July or August. Midges everywhere. Search midge forecast from Smidge online, if it's 3 or more here, get back south to the Apiary cafe. Its a spot on P4N, free, flat, secured and you get good priced coffee in the morning with adorable people !

  • 4/5

    Quiet road with very little traffic. Could just hear the train a few times from a distance. Close to A9 so perfect for a night when driving by. There was only one other car parked here the night I stayed.

  • 4/5

    Large lay-by on minor road running somewhat parallel to A9. Enough room for approx 3 campers with a good view over the mountains. Road very quiet. Train line between this road and A9 but again far enough away that the noise is minimal. Be warned, the midges are in abundance here!

  • 5/5

    Good size spot, we arrived about 8pm and no one else there. 2 other vans turned up by 10pm. Far enough away from the A9 to not be bothered by road noise.

  • 4/5

    quiet enough, good views and pretty flat. Good night sleep.

  • 5/5

    Excellent spot far enough away from the A9 to be quiet.

  • 4/5

    Un parking assez grand, la route est calme, une belle vue.

  • 5/5

    Great spot, can’t fault it. 5 campers here last night. Some road noise in distance but actually road we are on is quiet. We arrived late and moving on today but you could walk nearby and there is a river. No facilities, or bins, but clean and litter free. Ideally placed not far from main road and a decent amount of space. Ideal for one night. Would recommend.

    De la circulation sur l’A9 non loin du spot mais cela n’empêche pas de dormir ! Vue sur les montagnes et au bord d’un pré de moutons

  • 5/5

    Lovely views of mountains, just of a B road & 5mins drive to Dalwhinnie & whisky distillery, very open & the train line is 300 yards in front, just right for a one nighter in y motorhome, lovely & peaceful

    Nous avons passé cette nuit ici, un peu de bruit lié aux voitures mais pas beaucoup de passage. Les semis s’arrêtent aussi ici. Rien à signaler autrement!

  • 5/5

    Facile da raggiungere, bellissima natura, ottimo per una notte

    Lovely quiet little spot. We were the only van here. Nice stop of traveling on the A9. Unfortunately got beeped at 5 am but we snoozed on!

  • 5/5

    Stopped here on the way back from work. Shops and fuel close by but not open late. Good phone signal. Few passing cars but quiet through the night. Few mins from the A9 but can’t hear traffic. Will use again

  • 4/5

    Nice large spot with a beautiful view. (No litter there)

  • 5/5

    Stopped here for a night, there was a couple of other vans already there. Very spacious and a great spot for dark sky star gazing if you like that sort of thing.

  • 5/5

    Grand et beau spot qui peut loger plusieurs vans et camping-cars. Très belle vue sur les montagnes enneigées

  • 4/5

    What everyone else said. Fits 5/6 campervan or motorhomes fairly easily. Road is quiet and fairly private. It's fine for one night.

  • 4/5

    Great big open views.. not much passing traffic. Can see A9 in distance. 4 other vans parked up. Good pitch for a night

  • 5/5

    Deep lay-by with nice views. Stayed one night 5 motorhomes. Early morning beep on horn from local but otherwise ok.

  • 5/5

    Great quiet location for overnight park up. Local shops at Dulhinnie. Loads of midgies but to be expected. Other vehicles there also but lots of space.

  • 5/5

    Fab location for an overnight on route to your next place. Other lay by users don’t always park the best to allow other people to stop over also.

  • 5/5

    Large lay-by. Quiet road. Good access for walking. Lovely views. What 3 words: ///charts.oddly.fenced

    A place with plenty of room for several motorhomes and a panoramic view you would pay for. Had a lovely stop here very quiet with 3 other vehicles

  • 4/5

    Quiet spot on Old Military Road with great views

  • 5/5

    Perfect spot to stop for the night, quiet apart from occasional trains in the distance. Simple and no fuss

  • 4/5

    Petit espace en bord de route (très peu fréquenté, loin de l'axe principal) Calme, belle vue sur les montagne aux alentours, on voit le train passer au loin durant la nuit. Aucun service, pas de poubelle, mais la beauté du lieu en fait un spot parfait pour une nuit !

  • 5/5

    Really good spot for an overnight in a motorhome.

  • 5/5

    Fantastic spot for 1 night. Quiet with unbelievably beautiful views. Had a surprise visit from the local cows in the morning when blinds were opened. No amenities but, being in the middle of the mountains, you shouldn't expect any.
