What customers say

A tidy, well-kept site near the beach and nature reserve. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Toilets and showers are modern and spotless. It's peaceful, even when busy, with a good crowd. Shop and pizza are handy. A few mentioned shower pressure and road noise, but most loved it and want to come back.

Powered concrete slab caravan site (no awning)

Liked It was the end of the season but the site experience was still a good one. The warm, individual shower/toilets made a huge difference as it was stormy weather. We were warmly welcomed on arrival and had a peaceful stay. It is a great area to explore on foot and by bike. Plenty places to eat and the Phoenix shop next door was a great find. Forres is a lovely town. Very glad we went despite the weather.

Disliked Can't fault the site. Should have remembered our torch as dark at night! We have one now.

Liked Peaceful park, nicely spaced pitches. Brilliant location, so relaxing.
Fantastic location for birdwatching and sunsets at the estuary. The clear night skies are breathtaking with the added chance of experiencing the Aurora Borealis.

Disliked Disappointed we didn’t get to try out the pizza at the on-site take away due to them running out of pizza base dough because they were so busy. We should have gone earlier. Will know for next time.

Liked Everything. The site was lovely as were the facilities clean and warm.
Great for us as bird watchers as the findhorn estuary is right across the road. Thousands of pink footed geese and an Osprey amongst others. The cafe on the neighbouring site was good for breakfast.

Disliked Nothing
