Liked Quiet and peaceful .
Served my needs while on a training course in Aberdeen .

Disliked Overflowing bins were the first thing I saw on arrival.
Toilet and showers are dated and of questionable cleanliness.

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.

What customers say

This is a peaceful and friendly site with spacious pitches, praised for its quiet location and welcoming staff. While facilities are generally considered clean, many guests note they are dated and in need of modernisation. Dog owners appreciate the walking trails, and the site is seen as good value for money.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Nice spacious pitches. Well maintained, friendly staff. Fields nearby to walk dog.

Disliked Facilities are a bit dated, but not depressingly so. The fresh water fill-up hose is badly kinked making water flow very slow. It should have a a quick-connect so we could use our own hoses.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Will use again if visiting the area as there are not any alternatives.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Very clean and friendly.

Disliked Was told to pick any empty pitch which was great if you was stopping put for your stay but had to pick a different pitch the next day when we returned as someone else chose the pitch we had the day before, which wasn't a problem just strange and really quiet liked the 2nd pitch a bit better.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Staff were very friendly and tried hard to sort the issues.

Disliked Car alarms going off:

First of all because dogs were left in an adjacent car, triggering the motion sensors. This continued with the owners adjacent until we called staff....

At 2 am a car drove in, a couple slept in their car. Again motion sensors went off repeatedly. We had a very poor night's sleep.

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.
