  • Family-run holiday park at St Cyrus, just off the A92 in Angus
  • St Cyrus Beach 15 minutes’ walk; Dunnottar Castle 20 minutes’ drive
  • Well-maintained site; playground, shop and pub within 10 minutes’ walk
Venturing north to drive the North Coast 500 or staying around to explore more of the Angus region? Either way, family-run (and friendly) Ecclesgreig Holiday Park makes a handy base for short stops or longer getaways. It’s set in the small coastal village of St Cyrus between Aberdeen and Dundee (both about 45 minutes’ drive), with easy access to the main north-south A92. If you’re staying around for a while, you’ll have time to find the sandy beaches just 15 minutes’ walk away, and follow the wildlife walks starting right from the pitches. You can also keep the kids occupied at the Lochside Playpark (10 minutes’ walk), where there’s a bowling green and astroturf pitch for ball games as well as climbing frames. There’s a small essentials shop in St Cyrus, which also has a popular pub (10 minutes), where you can grab a pint and a bite, or they’ll also deliver your favourite takeaway if you don’t want to stir from your pitch. For bigger shopping expeditions, seaside Montrose (15 minutes’ drive) has several large supermarkets as well as numerous cafés, pubs and restaurants. The amenities on site include toilets, a shower block, a launderette and drying room, as well as a handy covered terrace in case the weather isn’t playing ball.

What customers say

This is a clean, well-maintained campsite with excellent new facilities, including spotless shower blocks, laundry, and communal BBQ areas. Pitches are generally spacious and private. Guests praise the friendly and helpful staff, the quiet atmosphere, and the on-site play park. The location is ideal, with easy access to a stunning beach and local village amenities. While some older facilities are noted as dated, ongoing improvements are appreciated. Minor points include occasional wind exposure on higher pitches and some sloped pitches requiring levelling blocks.

Electric grass pitch

Liked The pitch sites were very well proportioned with dividing fences for privacy from neighbouring pitches. They were also nice and level.

Lovely little play park area and a nice little forest walk on site to help keep the little ones entertained.

The new facilities are great, very clean and everything you could need. They had baby changing facilities and a high chair. The laundry room had a kettle and toaster. The wall had a large mirror with plug sockets available for your own hairdryer/straightener's etc.

There were catering vans on site during our visit which were fantastic and made dinner and breakfast very easy for us.

Electric grass pitch

Liked We loved Ecclesgreig. The staff were extremely helpful when I needed to change my booking date,. The site was nice and quiet and the toilets are nice, with the usual laundry and dish washing facilities, and a handy kettle, toaster and microwave. My electric cable wasn't long enough to reach the hook-up, but I was able to borrow one from the site. There's a play area for the kids and a nice barbecue area. There was also some picnic tables which was handy. The staff are so friendly and helpful. We'll definitely be going back.

Local attractions

St Cyrus National Nature Reserve (15 minutes’ walk) is a smashing spot for (hopefully) spotting skylarks and rare peregrine falcons, paddling in the North Sea and following trails through ever-shifting sand dunes. If you’re keen to see more birds, it’s a short hop to the Montrose Basin Visitor Centre (15 minutes’ drive) for the chance to spy pink-footed geese and kingfishers; there’s another sandy beach close by for summer swims. If the kids are not keen on getting in the sea, there’s an outdoor pool at Stonehaven (25 minutes), and if the weather turns bad, there’s a century’s worth of planes to be seen in hangars at Montrose Air Station Heritage Centre (10 minutes). Wait until the skies are clear before you visit legendary Dunnottar Castle (20 minutes), as its dramatic setting high on sea cliffs means it closes when it’s windy. An alternative is the 18th-century House of Dun (15 minutes), where you can learn about local life in the folk museum and tour ornate rooms and formal gardens. And Fettercairn Distillery (20 minutes) is open for tours and tasting, so you can pick up single malt as a Scottish souvenir.
