Gateposts and Huts at Stuartfield POW Camp The old gateposts at the old prisoner of war camp at Stuartfield in Aberdeenshire remain, as do some of the now derelict huts. Stuartfield initially housed Italian POW's, but later interred captured German soldiers, some from the 12th Panzer Division, after they were taken prisoner at Caen in France. Post war saw the camp being used to house displaced persons, from the likes of Bulgaria and Hungary.

9/10 Wonderful! (367 reviews)
Great nights sleep, very quiet and temperature controlled rooms if your like me and like it cold lol, you can turn off up or down. Also added bonus of a bath as wife had ours taken out during refurbishment. Food was great over the road as was breakfast and staff can’t be more helpful
