  • Peaceful holiday park in the Angus Glens, 10 minutes' drive from Alyth
  • A 40-minute drive from the museums and attractions of Dundee
  • Pond, play area, 20 acres of woodland and excellently-kept amenities
You'll have an idea or three why this fab Scottish site is so popular even before you book. Your upcoming excellent location first: Perthshire's Nethercraig Holiday Park is in the stunning Angus Glens, within half an hour of Dundee and Blairgowie, and only a mile from spectacular strolls and first-rate birdwatching at Loch of Lintrathen. If you care to stretch your legs still futher, it's a 10-minute drive from the park to the small town of Alyth, which is on the 65-mile circular Cateran Trail through Perthshire and the Angus Glens; you might have an idea or three that the scenery around here is pretty stunning too... You don't have to leave the grounds for yet more handsome hikes, as Nethercraig includes 20 acres of woodland where the helpful site owners have marked out a trail for wandering and dog walking. And if you prefer sitting in dreamy contemplation rather than crashing about the countryside, take yourself off to the large pond for peaceful times by the water – the kids have a playground and a football field to keep them nicely occupied. Previous guests have given plaudits aplenty about Nethercraig's handy setting, friendly approach, spotless amenities and thoughtful layout, where the accommodation areas are among hedges and trees to maximise seclusion and a sense of space. The toilet block is centrally set and has toilets, hot showers, accessible facilities, baby changing, a washing-up area and a launderette. Nethercraig has a small shop and a smart barbecue hut to aid fuelling up; for more supplies, a butcher, pubs, cafés and takeaways are in Alyth. If you're here for golf (it's Scotland, after all), sort your swing right on site at the golf practice net, before a speedy drive to Strathmore Golf Centre six miles away to show off your new moves.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the lovely surroundings, peaceful atmosphere and good-sized pitches at Nethercraig.

We appreciate your comments regarding our facilities. Some of our facilities are older, and while we work hard to keep them clean, well maintained and in good working order, we appreciate that they may not have the most modern appearance. Your comments regarding the door to the wash-up area and the debris around the shelter by the ladies' facilities are particularly helpful, and we will ensure these points are looked into.

We are sorry that the facilities did not meet your expectations in this regard. We always welcome feedback from our guests, as it helps us identify areas where we can make improvements and ensure that the high standards we aim for are maintained.

Liked We had a wonderful stay at Nethercraig Holiday Park and would happily visit again.

The park has two large children’s playgrounds, which were fantastic for our kids. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and there are lovely woodland walks right from the park. We especially enjoyed the picnic area by the pond. There is even a dedicated space for yoga, with yoga mats available to borrow, which was a really thoughtful touch.

There is also a large field for ball games, making it perfect for families. The dog exercise area was great, with accessories available for dog owners.

Laundry facilities, including washing machines and tumble dryers, are available for a small fee, which was very convenient during our stay.

The cleaning could have been a little better when we first arrived, but this was quickly addressed over the following days, so it wasn’t a major issue.

One of the best things about this holiday park is its location at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, meaning there is virtually no traffic. It felt very peaceful and safe, especially for families with children.

Overall, it’s a beautiful, relaxing, and family-friendly holiday park that we would definitely recommend.

Local attractions

Summer songbirds and winter wildfowl flock around the reservoir of Loch of Lintrathen a mile away, a pretty place for wanders as well as wildlife watching. The loch has two hides, one of which (on the east shore) is wheelchair accessible. History and heritage are also within sightseeing reach: famed Glamis Castle (yes, the Macbeth one) is 25 minutes' drive away , Scone Palace within 45 minutes, and Discovery Point, the maritime museum telling the tale of Scott's Antarctic research ship, within 40. There's also the 19th-century stately home at Camperdown Country Park (35 minutes), part of a 400-acre estate also home to a wildlife park and an 18-hole golf course. Kids should like a potter around the Beatrix Potter Exhibition and Garden at Birnam 45 minutes away, while pursuits certainly for the grownups include Edradour Distillery and the Famous Grouse Experience, 55 minutes and an hour and a quarter away.
