Grannie's Heilan' Hame Holiday Park

Lovely facilities, clean and hot showers
Flat, easily accessible pitch

Long walk to water points, toilets and showers for non-electric tent pitches

Nice clean site next to the beach

Bit big.

Nice site staff friendly enough

Toilet block was infested with huge daddy long legs put me of to use them

Close proximity to the beach.

Shower/toilet facilities were awful. Full of bugs, dirt and just generally unclean. Chippy was also terrible and way over priced.

The place is big, easy to find a spot to pitch. Nice area with beach and pool access, on site supermarket, game shop and good facilities.

One toilet that might be quite a walk if you pitch tent with no electricity area.

Location

Dirty toilets and showers on arrival and didn't improve, one toilet not flushing and blocked, missing and/or loose toilet seats, rubbish on the pitch, large holes adjacent to pitch which hadn't been filled and compacted leaving trip hazard in the dark. Washing up area, no plugs for the sinks.

On speaking to another camper the facilities were the even worse last year!!

We loved this site! We are a couple in our 30’s who stayed here for 3 nights with your black lab on one of the electric hook up pitches. We were £60 for 3 nights plus £3 to bring the dog. Which is actually such good value for a site with so much on it. It’s also a fab site as a starting point for the nc500.
The beach was a short walk from our pitch & is beautiful! Water is so clear. Toilet/shower facilities are good. Hot shower/free hairdryer. Good washing up area & for filling up water container.
The shop on site was fab had lots of variety in it & wasn’t hugely expensive for a camp site shop as you usually expect like I bought a 1 litre carton of milk & it was £1.50 compared to the £1.20 your pay in a supermarket. Only had chips(£3.50 for a regular portion) from the little fish & chip shop on site but they were tasty. Oh p.s if you go into Dornoch don’t eat from the highland chip shop😬(£4.95 for a large portion of some of the worst chippy chips we’ve ever had🙈)

We didn’t use the entertainment complex as we had the dog with us but I went a wander through it one night & has a good wee amusements area. Nice bar area with lots of different entertainment through the evening starting at 5pm with a kids disco followed by bingo at 7pm then different acts (singers etc) coming on about 9pm. Restaurant also looked lovely & had a nice outdoor dining area. Obviously can’t comment on the food as we didn’t eat there but did see a sign advertising 2 cooked breakfasts in the morning for around £14 served until 11.30.

Nice swing park & tennis courts next to the entertainment complex. Again we didn’t use swing park(thought we might get a few funny looks 😂) but it was always mobbed with kids over the weekend.
Well think I’ve covered everything! Aha hope this helps someone as with us living a 5 hr + drive away from this site I really looked into & read the reviews on this camp site but def worth the drive & will def be back.

Only negative points I can think of & they really weren’t that big a deal to us are that we arrived on the Thursday & site was quiet & the shower/toilet blocks were spotless well stocked with toilet roll etc. though come the Friday morning the site became very busy & we went from having lots of space round us to having a caravan with a family of 5 & a dog parked almost up against our guy ropes! Ha now we’re quite chilled so just switched our windbreaker to that side & sorted wee bit of privacy restored but know for some people hearing a toddler cry & a dog that was tied up outside caravan whimpering & barking would be a deal breaker.
Also as site had became at least 50% busier by the weekend the shower/toilet block took a hit too in the sense of which a few of the cubicles then had no loo roll & seen at least 2 toilets blocked with toilet roll. They also were def abit dirtier at this point. Sandy/muddy floor & paper towels that were overflowing the bin. Def think they might need to increase the cleaning/top up of this area at busy periods.

Only other point worth mentioning is something not really related to the actual site but more of a heads up for other dog owners. We spent a few hours 2 days in a row at the beach as the weather was glorious & our dog being a lab was in the water swimming with us constantly but unfortunately by the Saturday night she had developed limp tail/swimmers tail from the water being quite cold & we could tell she was abit sore & uncomfortable with it😢so just a heads up if your dog loves to swim at beach too to watch out for it as water is quite cold even in 27 degree heat ha & maybe take some metacam or similar dog painkiller as a just in case.

The weather was spectacular, the staff were all lovely ( especially the lady lifeguard at the pool). The park was clean as were the shower blocks. My first solo trip to my favourite place, definitely be doing it again.

Really can’t say I disliked anything.

Good size pitch short walk to beach on site bar restaurant and chippy

I quite liked the showroom and the games you got to play.

State of the toilets, full of daddy long legs.
No food served in the showroom bar. No information about opening and closing times of restaurant and chippy.
