  • Touring park with river and mountain views
  • Fish for salmon and trout on a private stretch of the river
  • Heated amenities block with free hot showers
Might you want a stay in a riverbank location in pretty Perthshire, with striking mountain views and a scenic section of bank from which to cast off for salmon and trout? Go on, you’ve Earned it. Find this – and a fair bit more – at Braidhaugh Holiday Park on the banks of the River Earn, 10 minutes’ walk from Perthshire’s market town of Crieff and listed as a spectacular scenery site for its mountain and river views. You can pick up a permit at reception to fish on Braidhaugh’s own part of the Earn, or use the park as a base for touring Perthshire and other top Scottish sites. Gentle canters on horseback or foot are nearby too: walks of all levels are all around the Crieff area and horse riding is available at Braidhaugh’s sister site in the area, Loch Tay Highland Lodges. Facilities on site include a heated and clean amenities block with free power showers, toilets, a wash area, shaver points and hairdryers. Facilities for disabled guests are in the main shower block. Clothes can be washed, dried and pristinely pressed in the launderette (get the other half to do it, you’re on holiday), and the games room with table football, dartboard, air hockey and TV should keep the kids occupied on rainy days. Top up essentials and toiletries at the onsite shop, or head into Crieff for more substantial supplies, restaurants, pubs and hotels.

What customers say

This campsite is praised for its friendly staff, cleanliness, and beautiful riverside location, a short walk from Crieff town centre. Guests enjoyed the warm, clean shower and toilet blocks, and many highlighted the hot tubs as a great addition. Some noted that pitches could be narrow and the bar closes early. Manager replies confirm that some issues raised, such as hedge trimming and Wi-Fi signal, are being addressed.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked Quiet site. Clean showers and toilets - which were very warm! Small pitch area but adequate. Nice clean laundry/ dish washing area.

Disliked In my opinion catering more towards their pods and static lodges. Very few motorhomes/ campervan/ caravan pitches. No wifi.

From the manager: Good afternoon - thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we do appreciate all feedback as this helps us to improve our guest experience. We are pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you here again.
The park is undergoing a development phase currently and we no longer have seasonal pitches for tourers, although we have kept the nightly touring pitches we had, plus the four touring pitches with hot tubs. Although small, many of our guests state that they find the park cosy, quiet and peaceful, while still being within easy reach of Crieff town centre, which is a plus. We are in a hard to reach area, and this means we cannot offer conventional wi-fi to any of our guests so a system has been installed that requires both a transmitter and receiver - unfortunately the receiver needs to be indoors and this is why we are unable to offer wi-fi to our touring guests. We do offer free wi-fi in reception and this is available for all of our guests to use.
I hope the above does in some way address/explain your dislikes :)

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked The showers were warm and clean. Close to the town.

Disliked The pitches were small, we had to park with the back of the motorhome touching the hedge. We were then unable to open the window. There was no WiFi and mobile network was bad. WiFi was only available if you stayed in their accommodation and then you had to pay.

Liked Nice welcome at reception. Lovely level site. Close to town. Supermarkets, restaurants and pubs all within 10-15 minutes walk. Beautiful views of the mountains. Toilet block wonderfully warm and spotlessly clean. Site very clean and tidy.

Disliked Pitch quite narrow. Just enough room for camper van and small awning.

Liked Really clean facilties and location is ideal for a stroll into Crieff. The staff are really helpful and friendly. Site is small but in a good way as it didn't feel busy or overcrowded. The reception area has a small bar area. We never used it but it looked nice with a small outside area to sit.

Local attractions

Ah, Perthshire…you could spend weeks here and still have to go back for more. More fishing, great golfing, red squirrels, country parks and historical highlights including Scotland’s oldest library and Iron Age hill forts – all here, along with the essentials of whisky trailing and big city shopping. Nearby Crieff was a wild-west style cattle rustling town in times of yore; it’s tamer these days but thrillseekers can check out the Crieff Hydro Outdoor Activity Centre to whirl around an aerial adventure course on tightropes, ziplines and cargo nets, or get sporty at some of the dozens of indoor and outdoor pursuits here including golf, riding, swimming and football. The centre has a reputation for being particularly sprog-friendly, as does the popular MacRosty Park: there’s a good-sized children’s playground here for all ages, beside a café for tired parents. From MacRosty, set off along the River Earn to see the trees on Lady Mary’s Walk, one of Perthshire’s most popular strolls for its wealth of wildlife and autumnal blaze. Another top tree-based walk – Perthshire is known as Big Tree Country, after all – is around the oldest managed forest in Scotland, Craigvinean, or the Atholl Estate and its wild tree garden, with possibly the biggest Douglas fir you’ll ever see.
