  • Family-run holiday park at St Cyrus, just off the A92 in Angus
  • St Cyrus Beach 15 minutes’ walk; Dunnottar Castle 20 minutes’ drive
  • Well-maintained site; playground and shop within 10 minutes’ walk
Venturing north to drive the North Coast 500 or staying around to explore more of the Angus region? Either way, family-run (and friendly) Ecclesgreig Holiday Park makes a handy base for short stops or longer getaways. It’s set in the small coastal village of St Cyrus between Aberdeen and Dundee (both about 45 minutes’ drive), with easy access to the main north-south A92. If you’re staying around for a while, you’ll have time to find the sandy beaches just 15 minutes’ walk away, and follow the wildlife walks starting right from the pitches. You can also keep the kids occupied at the Lochside Playpark (10 minutes’ walk), where there’s a bowling green and astroturf pitch for ball games as well as climbing frames. There’s a small essentials shop in St Cyrus, 10 minutes' walk away. For bigger shopping expeditions, seaside Montrose,15 minutes’ drive away, has several large supermarkets as well as numerous cafés, pubs and restaurants. The amenities on site include toilets, a shower block, a launderette and drying room, as well as a handy covered terrace in case the weather isn’t playing ball.

Well-kept, clean site with friendly staff & peaceful vibe. Great facilities (upgraded toilets/showers). Handy for beach & walks. Good for families & dogs, with play areas. Mostly positive, but occasional noise & need for ramps noted.

Powered grass site

Liked Spacious pitch. Had to park a little too close to the hedging so that my EHU cable would link up. That was the only downside.

Clean toilets and restrooms, clean kitchen area with dish soap and scrubbers supplied.

Lovely enclosed forested area to be able to walk the dog.

Leslie L.

Powered grass and gravel site

Liked The new toilet block was generally pretty good. Possibly the best wash-up and laundry we have come across, Excellent showers with good hot water.
The pitch was spacious, private easy to find and access. The site is well lit at night. The area is a great place for walking, bird watching etc. Never saw the owners, reception was closed all weekend but I did receive a text with info.

Disliked The excellent, new toilet/shower cubicles were really outdoors as they were each free standing in an open shed, As the weather was wet, everywhere was covered in muddy footprints. It was February I suppose but the earth access roads around the site became very muddy and slippery when it rained. I expect that when they get more organised and resurface the roads with gravel or tar, this will improve. One more slightly critical observation, the site could do with one or two signposts, including on the main road.

Local attractions

St Cyrus National Nature Reserve (15 minutes’ walk) is a smashing spot for (hopefully) spotting skylarks and rare peregrine falcons, paddling in the North Sea and following trails through ever-shifting sand dunes. If you’re keen to see more birds, it’s a short hop to the Montrose Basin Visitor Centre (15 minutes’ drive) for the chance to spy pink-footed geese and kingfishers; there’s another sandy beach close by for summer swims. If the kids are not keen on getting in the sea, there’s an outdoor pool at Stonehaven (25 minutes), and if the weather turns bad, there’s a century’s worth of planes to be seen in hangars at Montrose Air Station Heritage Centre (10 minutes). Wait until the skies are clear before you visit legendary Dunnottar Castle (20 minutes), as its dramatic setting high on sea cliffs means it closes when it’s windy. An alternative is the 18th-century House of Dun (15 minutes), where you can learn about local life in the folk museum and tour ornate rooms and formal gardens. And Fettercairn Distillery (20 minutes) is open for tours and tasting, so you can pick up single malt as a Scottish souvenir.
