Loch Lomond Holiday Park

Liked Unfortunately we arrived a day earlier than planned. Phoned up and asked if there was any chance if we could move our paid leave one day forward. Before I could say anything else I was informed that they were fully booked and that wouldn’t be an option. The place didn’t look that busy so we went online and there was still 3 pitches available for that day for Motorhomes that we could have booked there and then if we wanted too but because she lied we decided to go elsewhere and give someone else our money!

Disliked The next day when we should have gone to this site we decided to go home instead, as we were at the end of our tour and she had left a bitter taste in my mouth. Check in was from 2pm still 5pm. It was only at 5:40pm when we received an email for the gate entrance code to get in. Every other place that we had been to in the last 3 weeks had been amazing. So I can’t give feedback on the actual place and its amenities .

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave your comments. I’m sorry to hear about your experience.
Since reading your review, I have personally checked our availability for the date in question. I can confirm there were no pitches available, and our receptionist was not lying. We are unsure why the system appeared to show spaces online at that moment, but I can assure you there was no actual availability to move your booking forward by a day.
It’s also important to note that, even if there had been space, moving a booking forward is not something we are normally able to do. Exceptions can occasionally be made in truly exceptional circumstances, but this was not the case here.
I understand how this may have caused frustration, and I appreciate you raising it so we can continue to monitor both our booking system and communication to ensure clarity for guests.
Kind regards,

With regard to the facilities, we find that our single shower and toilet generally meet the needs of guests, as our site is intentionally kept small and peaceful to preserve the atmosphere many people come here for. Most visitors tell us they appreciate the simplicity and tranquility of the setup.

Liked The pitch was a well kept hardstanding fully serviced pitch (although the coax aerial connection didn't work). The shop was well stocked and reasonably priced. The laundry room had 2 large washing machines and 2 large tumble dryers which were reasonably priced and easy to use.

Disliked It appears from the images that the pitches are all close to the loch which is the reason for picking this site as we wanted access for kayaking. However the touring pitches are all set back as the site obviously revolves around the chalet pitches. Furthermore the touring pitches as a result are close to the road which is very busy and the railway is just past this so they aren't particularly peaceful. The pitches aren't particularly big and are only separated by waist height hedges so not much privacy. The toilet block has only 1 shower, 1 toilet and 1 urinal on the male side and 1 shower and 2 toilets on the female side to serve all of the touring pitches. These were not particularly clean either. Entry to the site was difficult. There is a barrier with a code which isn't provided ahead of arrival. There is a bell button which wasn't answered and a phone number There which wasn't answered. I had to wait with car and caravan while my wife walked to reception ( in a downpour) to get access. This wasn't isolated to us- we could see the entrance from our pitch and witnessed this ordeal repeated during our stay. During our second day after a few hours kayaking on the loch, we returned cold and wet needing a hot shower only to find that the power to the shower block had tripped and the site had no awareness of this . So having got ready for a shower we had to get dressed before getting dried to go back to reception to get this sorted and then a long wait in the cold while the problem was resolved. Speaking to another guest at this time we learnt that they had arrived around lunchtime that day and had to wait 2 hours to get the water turned on for their pitch. When we finally did get to use the showerers we found that they were very hot but not very powerful with no way of adjusting- just a push tap. We managed OK but this wouldn't do for a family at all- especially with young children.We've paid a lot less for campsites that are a lot better set up for caravans and motor homes. We paid a premium expecting a perfect place to say while we kayak on loch lomond and were disappointed as a result. The price should be adjusted or the facilities and management of the touring pitches should be improved. I realise that it's a holiday park- not a campsite but this should reflect in the touring pitch price.

Liked It was in a really good location and close to shower blocks which was great. We used the family room for games and that was a lovely communal space. Highly recommend!

Disliked The washing machine was quite expensive though!

Liked The whole site is very clean.

Well laid out.

The staff were polite & helpful

Disliked Not a major problem, but the bins are down the steep hill from the touring pitches.

The exit onto the main road is a little difficult/dangerous at busy times
