From the manager: Many thanks for your review.
I just want to clarify that we do not have any Wifi as we are very rural here and there is no broadband in the area via BT landline. There is however a good 4G signal which is what we use on our phones.

Would recommend, friendly staff, great toilet, lush green level pitch

Local attractions

Ballater (10 minutes’ drive) is a place where you’re bound to stop sooner or later – it's a handy place for a variety of shops, but it’s also worth leaving a bit of time to visit the Old Royal Station, climb Craigendarroch Hill and play a round at Ballater Golf Club. Balmoral Castle (20 minutes) was famously the favourite residence of Queen Elizabeth II, and you’ll be able to find out why when you pay a visit – either taking a guided tour of the house or strolling around the grounds depending on the season. Heading out into the Cairngorms National Park is a must too, whether you’re planning adventures like a climb of nearby Ben Macdui or more gentle strolls looking out for Highland cows. Either way, you can finish off your day of activity with a few sips of something from Royal Lochnagar Distillery (25 minutes).
