Liked The site was very quiet, arrived late no issues, choose pitch on arrival. Toilets and showers clean, maybe need a wee upgrade but not an issue. Pitch adequate size. Good dog walks, local for Carnoustie and Monifieth. Value for money. Second time we’ve been and we will be back.

Local attractions

Barry Mill (five minutes’ drive) is a working water-powered oatmeal mill dating from the early 19th century. What’s perhaps most surprising about this early industrial structure is its setting: surrounded by luxuriant vegetation and wildflower meadows. The stream that fuels the mill is home to birds such as herons and kingfishers. Although Arbroath Abbey (15 minutes) now lies in ruins, it’s not difficult to imagine how magnificent this 12th-century monastic complex must have looked in its heyday. The Declaration of Arbroath, defending Robert the Bruce to the pope who had excommunicated him, was drafted here in 1320. When in Dundee (20 minutes), make sure to visit the V&A Dundee, a design museum housed in a spectacular contemporary building on the banks of the River Tay. Also on the riverfront is HMS Unicorn, a 19th-century ship that hosts maritime-themed exhibitions, while the McManus: Dundee’s Art Gallery & Museum occupies a splendid neo-Gothic building.
