Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked Nice quality grass pitch, playpark for kids, friendly staff, hot ahower, location good for us

Disliked Very noisy inconsiderate campers next door making noise up to midnight despite me asking to reduce noise levels. Litter all over playpark including several collapsed chairs (clearly been there some time) which I cleared up. Only one sink for washing up for all tent campers.

Liked Lovely lady on reception , who explained why there was no hot water for showers etc. Nice pitch, quiet

Disliked No hot water on site. Rather tired toilet block. Apparently they had run out of oil a few days ago, but we'd already paid online.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Electric hook up and hard standing good. Scenic site, clean. Friendly. Would be better if hook ups had own water supply as well. Staff were friendly and helpful. No litter around. Friendly little playground for kids. Also washing machine and tumble drierr available.

Disliked Toilets need an upgrade for tourer. I understand this is mostly self contained static site. But showers were poor and toilet area quite poor. Also Elson area was just a toilet and a hose with little to no pressure. Needs an upgrade to dedicated cleaning area.

Local attractions

Those of you who rate cycling, walking and mountain biking highly might want to head to the landscapes around Aboyne (40 minutes’ drive). In the same direction, visit Balmoral Castle (an hour), the late Queen Elizabeth II’s Scottish residence. A trip to these two parts will take you through both Donside and Deeside. Keeping with the historical theme, Haddo House (35 minutes) frequently hosts theatrical productions from Prince Edward. However, if it’s castles you’re intent on finding first, perhaps a stroll around Castle Fraser (10 minutes), Drum Castle (25 minutes) or Corse Castle (half an hour)? In Aberdeen, there’s excitement in a few different forms. Historical places include The Gordon Highlanders Museum (25 minutes), the Girdle Ness Lighthouse (40 minutes) and Blairs Museum (25 minutes), while entertainment comes in the form of the Jump In Adventure Parks: Aberdeen (35 minutes) and the seafront amusements.
