What visitors say
Just returned from a wonderful 3 night stay - what a special place. The tent and whole private area was beyond our expectations- so much space and we weren’t expecting our own hot tub and discovery tent! Kids (4 and 2) and grown ups had a truly wonderful time. Will be recommending to all the families i know!

Great glamping in the beautifull surroundings if Chesters Estate. Very peacefull place with loads of wildlife during dusk and dawn. Easy from here tor visit a lot of attractions. Edinburgh is a 1 hour drive. Ellie and the others were very welcoming. So recommended.

Chesters was great. Ellie and family were fantastic. The tents were comfy and nice. The hot tub was perfect. To be able to slow down, stop and "just be" is rare these days. All we really had to worry about was making fire to cook and heat up the hot tub. Since we flew from Germany and spent time in the bigger cities in southern Scotland, we came with public transport and taxi to Chesters. That meant we just stayed on site. We walked to Ancrum twice - once to get some food to cook (since the bothy is very limited in food) and once to have dinner at Ancrum Cross Keys. With a car, our food choices would've been able to be less camping and more glamping, but not having a car also allowed us to just stop and enjoy.

Chesters comes highly recommended not least because of Ellie who is a fantastic host. The location is beautiful, the perfect family break away from the trappings of modern life. We have now been twice as our kids loved it the first time - the river, the woods, the fruit and veg in the walled garden, the tree house, the open fires and not forgetting the hot tub… love it! We’ll be back.
