Welcome to the Cultybraggan Camp in Perthshire, a place where Nazi German soldiers and officers would be held afterbeing captured during the Second World War. Believe it or not, the Comrie community revealed plans to renovate ten of the huts into a four star hotel. The former category A camp, built in 1941, held 4,000 high security German prisoners-of-war between 1944 and 1948. It is reportedly the last of its kind to be preserved in the UK and Europe. A trust bought the site from the UK Ministry of Defence in 2005 and has since given permission to local businesses to take over the huts. Now, this former war-time prison is going to be transformed in a luxurious accommodation to pull in the tourists. would you ever stay in the same place as former Nazi prisoners of war?
