Heading to the Ryder Cup at Gleneagles in 2014 and looking for accommodation that won’t cost the earth?

If you haven’t already booked somewhere to stay within one hours’ drive of the Perthshire golf resort, you will probably find what’s left is a) expensive and b) miles and miles away from the course.

You could stay slightly further away in Stirling – with its William Wallace ‘Braveheart statue,’ or even try your luck in some of the bigger towns like Perth, Dunblane, Crieff and Auchterarder.

Any hotelier worth their salt will have hiked up their room rates and private residential home owners will be sensing the opportunity to make a killing as golf fans from across the world flock to see the sport’s greatest spectacle.

In short, it’s not going to be cheap – but – maybe there’s another, more creative and unusual way to stay in comfort close to Gleneagles?

Bunk Campers, a Campervan Hire Scotland company, has announced Campervan Hire accommodation for the 2014 Ryder Cup.

The company has a host of campervans and motorhomes available for hire throughout the Ryder cup week, taking place at Gleneagles 23-28 September 2014.
