What customers say
Peaceful spot, great views. Basic but clean facilities incl. hot shower & composting loos. Spacious pitches. Most love the quiet, some find it remote. Steep loo steps, occasional noise noted. Tents not ideal for big groups. Many keen to return.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Definitely recommended if self sufficient and don't need electricity.
Unpowered grass site
Liked Lots of space, and beautiful scenery, just a short drive from Portsoy. Perfect if you are self sufficient and just want a pitch for the night. The owner has tried hard to provide a few facilities like a basic toilet and shower, bins and a sheltered area to enjoy some outside space and bbq. We were in a motorhome so had everything we needed on board and didn't need anything else other than a parking area, with lovely views and a lovely quiet night's sleep away from main roads.
Disliked The field is on a slope so although we had chocks and were able to level up, it is something to bear in mind. £20 just to park up a motorhome which uses no other facilities and has no black or grey waste disposal provision is still expensive but cheaper than most other campsites.

Peaceful quiet campsite tucked away great for a stop point.
Unpowered grass site
Liked Nice quiet beautiful scenery loved being there first time Eco camping would do it again. Great stop off point if heading further north might stop off on way back.
Facilities are clean and well maintained.
Disliked Steps going into the toilet are quite steep due to not being able to do stairs very well, made it hard so not really a problem for some nowhere to wash up as only hot water is the outdoor shower.

Bell tent
Liked absolutely beautiful camp site in the most peaceful setting. we were the only ones there and stayed in the bell tent .
the site is lovely. composting toilets were clean and well stocked . The shower was lovely and warm
The polytunnel was a lovely touch sheltering us from the wind whilst watching the sun go down .
this has to be my favourite camp site and we will definitely be back .
We left feeling so rested
