Every building tells a story and this one certainly has a rich history. Hut 34 is one of five beautifully modernised Nissen huts at Cultybraggan Camp, a former Prisoner of War Camp set just outside the picturesque village of Comrie in Perthshire.
Originally built during the Second World War, Nissen huts were used across Britain to provide practical, temporary accommodation. While many disappeared after the war, Cultybraggan Camp remained in use for decades as a Ministry of Defence training centre and is now recognised by Historic Scotland as a unique heritage asset of international value. Today, it is the last remaining Prisoner of War Camp in Scotland.
Thanks to the vision of Comrie Development Trust, the camp has been carefully preserved and thoughtfully reimagined. Five huts have been transformed into spacious, sustainable self catering accommodation, offering a stay that is both distinctive and comfortable.
Hut 34 retains its iconic curved form, complemented by a striking red roof, crisp white frontage and black trim, set against the vivid green backdrop of the Aberuchill Hills. Inside, the space has been completely redesigned to create a bright and calming open plan living area. Natural light fills the room, highlighting blond wooden floors, soft neutral tones and clean white kitchen cabinetry.
The living space includes comfortable seating with a double sofa bed and television, along with a dining table seating four. The fully equipped kitchen provides everything needed for a relaxed self catering stay.
The separate bedroom features a king size bed, and there is a modern shower room finished to a high standard.

Location
Cultybraggan Camp sits just outside Comrie, in the heart of Perthshire. The camp is home to a number of local businesses and community groups, and guests can explore the on site exhibition which recreates original prisoner accommodation and shares the history of the site.
Comrie itself offers independent shops, cafes and restaurants, with further amenities available in nearby Crieff. Families may enjoy a visit to Auchingarrich Wildlife Centre, while golfers have a choice of excellent local courses, including the renowned Gleneagles. Walkers are well catered for, from gentle routes such as Lady Mary’s Walk to more challenging ascents including Ben Vorlich and Ben Chonzie.
Please note there is a cattle grid at the entrance to the camp. As the site supports several small businesses, there may be occasional vehicle movement in the early mornings and evenings.
