  • Green rural getaway in Scotland's first Fairtrade town
  • Spectacular scenery and plenty of open space
  • Manicured landscape with spacious level pitches
Set on the outskirts of a small market town, Aberfeldy Caravan Park is a welcoming park surrounded by the oh-so-scenic Highland Perthshire. It's on the banks of the river Tay, so families, couples and solo travellers should all find the setting lovely and peaceful. This prime location means easy access to local attractions, whether it's visiting the historic Dewar's Aberfeldy Distillery or scenic walks along the Birks of Aberfeldy (both within a short walk of the park). Once home to famed poet Robert Burns and made more popular still by its status as the first Fairtrade town on Scotland’s map, Aberfeldy also has shops, restaurants and pubs (all a short walk away) . You’ve picked the right spot too if you're after a green and rural getaway: the handsomely manicured grounds and garden here provide spacious and level pitches at the park, all accessible by a clearly marked path. Then take a step through the gate on to the footpath that runs between the site and the River Tay and you’re slap bang in peaceful Scottish countryside. When you’re not admiring the view of the river or the Strath Tay landscape thick with hillsides and trees from your pitch (it’s enough to make anyone come over all poetic), the kids should like the open space in which to run around and the well-equipped play area on site. The site has clean shower and toilet facilities and a laundry service, along with other handy amenities, and you can bring your pup along for a plentiful helping of Scottish air too.

What customers say

Riverside spot, short walk to Aberfeldy. Staff friendly, site clean. Showers/toilets good, plenty of hot water. Kids loved the play area. Some noise from campers/road. App-controlled hook-up tricky for a few.

John F.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked Nothing

Disliked In my option this site should be closed down on public health grounds. The female toilets can only be described as vile and disgusting.
When this reported to the receptionist the response was that the owners were trying to find a contact cleaner. This suggests the female toilets are not being cleaned on a regular basis.
By contrast the male toilets were reasonably clean and had been recently redecorated.
The whole site is overcrowded and the owner has obviously selected maximum profit over customer satisfaction.
There is on small children's play area which is inadequate for the number of users.
Electricity can be obtained by an Internet provider, but the site was not easy to navigate and very frustrating.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked It was on the outskirts of Aberfeldy Village
I really liked the fact we didn't have to take the motorhome every time we needed the shop, i walked there several times.

Disliked Toilets/ shower block (female) were not only old and outdated but they were filthy
The same dirt and 💩 stains were there from friday until sunday.
It was gross and the whole block stunk.
My husband said the mens were not nice either.
Made you feel dirtier after leaving them.

Local attractions

The historic Dewar’s World of Whisky distillery is within handy walking distance from the site for tipples, tours and your fill of liquor heritage. The vibrant highland town of Aberfeldy, for shoppers and lovers of all things organic, is a 10-minute walk away in one direction: get your caddy in tow if going here too, because in the other direction is a golf course within walking distance. If you're a hill walker, join the footpath along the River Tay straight from the site which leads to an array of walking challenges; from a stroll (via a pub, naturally) or a hike up some of the landscape’s more demanding routes: the view at the end (and all the way along, in fact) will be well worth it… Cyclists and mountain bikers have a fair bit of varying terrain to try out in the area, from the old railway path along the Rob Roy Way linking Aberfeldy and Grandtully gently taking in the sites of the area that inspired Robert Burns, to the steady climb of Castle Dow and other steeper tracks.
