Claire M. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered grass and earth motorhome site

Liked: Quiet, tranquil, wonderful views. Nice walks. Two play areas if you have children, also swing ball, trampoline, zip line. Pet farm animals. Freshly cooked breakfast butties are available. Small recrption/shop. Plenty showers and toilets, roomy. Washing up area. Chemical waste area for your toilet waste. Dark so great for star gazing. Very good recycling area. Fire pits on site to use which i loved. Take plenty torches if using toilets overnight as can be a little walk away from vans and tents for overnight. (Dont be hesitant with the steep little entrance on your approach this is the entrance. Dont be tempted to drive further along that single minor road.)

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Lots of space, flat pitches, good facilities, shop selling breakfast options, sweets, baking and coffees. Great phone signal for data. Cute miniature goats and Shetland ponies.

Disliked: A little bit unclear plots and what facilities were available. Did arrive as it was getting dark though! A little bit far from main Cairngorms hikes at 40-70 minutes drive but doable.

Powered grass and earth motorhome site

Liked: My son and I had our first solo trip out in our van here on Friday and I have to say this place is just the best. The owners are lovely, animals are great and plenty to do for my 7 year old. It was just perfect, will definitely be returning at some point. No WiFi that I no of but didn't need it.

Disliked: Zero!!

Local attractions

Looking to lounge about locally? Goodbrand and Ross gift shop and restaurant is a good place to grab a bite to eat or buy a few presents for folk back at home, while the Lonach Highland Gathering and Games take place annually a couple of miles to the north. For further typically Scottish attractions, try visiting one of the many distilleries in the area; the closest is roughly 30 minutes away. The Cairngorms is also uncommonly rich in castles, including the well-preserved ruins of Kildrummy Castle (20 minutes) and gorgeous 17th-century Braemar Castle (40 minutes). Balmoral (30 minutes), the long-term summer residence of the British royal family, will also be high up on the list of those seeking impressive architecture, art and antiques. Your hosts also recommend taking the time to drive out to Landmark Forest Adventure Park (an hour), a kid-oriented spot with a climbing wall, high ropes course, maze and rollercoaster. You might also like to drive east to the Grampian Transport Museum's top collection of exhibits (35 minutes), or to carry on all the way down to the North Sea coast at Aberdeen (an hour and a quarter).
