Looking into reception (added by manager 16 sep 2022)

Gravel and hardstanding pitches (added by manager 07 sep 2022)

Simple site by Peterhead's beach, harbour and marina
A 20-minute walk from town centre and 50 minutes' drive from Aberdeen
Coast walks, nature reserves and museums within a 40-minute drive

Coast walks, country parks, seal spotting, whisky sipping… if your holiday wish list includes all, some or any of the above, potter along to Marina Bay Holiday Park. This relaxed site is right on the harbour, beach and marina of the so-called Blue Toon, named after the coloured stockings formerly worn by Peterhead’s fishermen. They go for a more modern style these days, but this Aberdeenshire town is still a busy and thriving port and you’ll be well placed to watch all the activity from your lodgings at the park. Peterhead is a simple site with hot showers, toilets and a washing-up area. Barbecues are welcome, as are canine companions – and the adjacent beach is dog-friendly too. So you, the dog and the rest of the family might like to take a 20-minute stroll by the sea and into town… where there are shops and supermarkets and a grand spread of places for dining and drinking. With your shopping and supping needs seen to, it’s time to get historical in Peterhead Museum, where the town’s past as a whaling centre is on display alongside an array of Inuit and polar objects brought back from icy waters far to the north. For a different kind of chill, head to Peterhead Prison Museum and get locked up in the cells, or mix your time travelling with exercise while walking the Peterhead Town Trail around the streets and out to the cliffs.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (two person)

Liked: Very friendly staff, nice warm shower, very friendly neighbours. Budget friendly. Ground was perfect for the tent (easy to put the pegs on) and sheltered enough for the windiest night ever - my tent stayed intact. I stayed for a night to explore the area; there are lovely long sandy beaches up North Peterhead where you can walk for a very long time.

From the manager: Glad you enjoyed your stay many Thanks Rhona

Teresa C. Sept 2023

Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Location: right on the lido. Lovely clean sand, and a safe little harbour for paddle boarding. 20 minute walk into the town and a great place to base yourself to explore the beautiful east coast. Shower blocks aren’t modern but they are clean, and the water was hot. Nice welcome from staff.

Disliked: Not a dislike as such but Pitches are quite neat if you have an awning.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Glad you enjoyed your stay , sorry about the pitch they are for residentials in the future but just wanted you to enjoy the stunning view. Many Thanks Rhona

Jeanette D. Sept 2023

Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Small friendly site - greeted by the manageress - Rhona and shown all the amenities. Toilet/shower block was clean. Sea front pitch overlooking the Harbour. Great dog walking area along the beech.

Disliked: Pitches are very close together. It’s a good job we didn’t have an awning as we wouldn’t have been able to put it up without being very close to the caravan next door.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Jeanette Thank you so much for your review, my apologies about the awning, we could have given you a bigger pitch Rhona (warden)

Local attractions

For further walks and sea views, set a course for Slaing Castle (15 minutes’ drive), a 16th-century ruin high on the cliffs, or take your binoculars to the stark, empty and almost desert-like landscape of the Forvie National Nature Reserve to spot eiders, terns and seal colonies among the shifting dunes. There’s nature of a tamer kind at Aden Country Park (20 minutes), where the Victorian arboretum and the Aberdeenshire Farming Museum make for interesting wanders, alongside playgrounds and a dog agility course for those who just want to get jumping. On a grander scale, Haddo House (40 minutes) is a mix of country pile plus fine art collection and woodland wilderness. The most northerly city in the United Kingdom, Aberdeen, is a 50-minute trip away: take a cruise to the offshore wind farms and the oil rigs, hopefully spotting dolphins and porpoises, seals and even the odd whale enroute. If that hasn’t resulted in seasickness, test your nerves further on the thrill rides of Codonas Amusement Park then calm yourself with walks by the Dee through the green spaces of Duthie Park. Mountains? The Cairngorms National Park is around an hour and 40 minutes away, full of peaks, castles and ski resorts, with famed distilleries like Glenlivet, Glenfiddich and Tomintoul providing welcoming and warming stopoffs in between.
