Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Great campsite, very spacious. Tents were a good distance from eachother and every pitch had its own fire pit. The shop was a nice touch which I wasn’t expecting and owners were fantastic.
Disliked: Male toilet inside lock didn’t quite line up so found it difficult to lock and still unsure how the shower was meant to lock. We were the only ones on site so didn’t ask for assistance though.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: I like everything about it from the owners being very welcoming to the camp site and even the trip to the camp site. Firstly as soon as you arrive you leave you car one-sided of the stream and then get an amazing trip over a stream to enter the camp in an ex military vehicle to a stunning camp site. The whole camp site is very eco friendly and has places where you can set a fire and also has a small shack where you can buy marshmallows, chocolate and firewood in there, this was amazing making it a true camping experience. in the morning if you are leaving all you need to do is get in contact with the owner to get a trip back over the stream and back to you car. like I said I really enjoyed it I would give it a 10/10 and would definitely book it again if I go back up that way.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Really enjoyed our stay at Dall cottage. Had to cross a ford to access the campsite, our car wouldn’t get across but no bother as there is a truck that can be arranged to take you across. Definitely has everything you need, a little shop with drinks, wood and blankets. Toilet and shower were both good, kept very clean. Had a real remote feel to the campsite, not many other campers and spaced out enough to not feel crowded. Each pitch has a ready set up fire pit area which is a really nice touch. The campsite is close to Pitlochry for shops and day out, plenty of walks to be had in the area. Overall had a great stay, enjoyed the walk across the river to access the site. Friendly and helpful owners.

Liked: Tremendous location. Secure. Brilliant hosts, really friendly and helpful. Small amount of pitches was a great idea, really makes the campsite feel unique and I always felt comfortable and safe. Was super lucky it was in the mid 20s the day I was there and the river was amazing to swim in! Dog loved it too! Will be back for sure. Thanks.
Disliked: Nothing. Was exactly as described and if you prepare then you'll have a great time.
