  • Shop on site; restaurants, pubs and shops within walking distance
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). 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 neat riverside spot near Crieff boasts clean amenities, hot tubs & friendly staff. While many loved the peace, privacy & value, some found showers cramped, Wi-Fi patchy & the bar's hours limited. A few noted pitch size & upkeep needs.

Camping pod (hot tub, ensuite)

Liked Very good spot, right next to the river. Comfortable sleep. Kitchen had everything we needed. I would recommend to use a fly fishing rod to catch trout. We tried all sorts of different type of fishing (legal ones) but zero luck unfortunately. I noticed a lot of trout going for flies just on other side of the river where the water is deeper. Also, I would recommend to bring a fan for the hot weather season. Shops are in the walking distance. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Disliked Both taps on the bathroom’s sink need tightened up as they are wobbly . But did the job.

Fully-serviced gravel caravan site (hot tub)

Liked spacious pitches with good facilities
lovely walks along river earn and into crieff town
friendly staff

Disliked electric hot tubs as an option for motorhome stays would be good
electric points or hairdryers in ladies toilets would be appreciated

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hello Rob,
Thank you for your lovely review – we’re so pleased you enjoyed the spacious pitches and the walks along the River Earn. It’s also great to hear our team made a positive impression.
Regarding your suggestion about hairdryers in the ladies’ toilets, we do not provide these in the public shower/toilet blocks. This is due to safety considerations in shared wet areas.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback and hope to welcome you back again in the future.

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.
