From the manager: Hi thanks for the review unfortunately this is the kind of guest you don't need very rude and give Germans a bad name luckily we find most are very friendly . As for the toilets we clean them every day sometimes more. As for customer service we are only here for them and do our utmost to please them if they give us a chance. As for weather and temperatures I will try and order better. We do have a heated toilet which you where advised of.mehhhh

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: So i never actually made it to the camp site through pure bad luck first i almost ran out if petrol and then just as we were 20mins away i burst my tire.

Powered grass and earth motorhome site

Liked: Location is amazing with 360° views, and so peaceful. Was very quiet during our 3 night stay. Owners welcoming and approachable. Very dog/child friendly lots of little activities dotted about for the kids and plenty of space for the dogs to have a run around. Wild camping vibes with all the facilities you need, including the hottest showers. Lovely area to explore and good site to base yourself on for exploring the cairngorms. Would definitely return.

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).
