  • Peaceful park next to the River Forth, two miles from Aberfoyle
  • In Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, a half-hour drive from Stirling
  • Well-kept pitches with direct access to Loch Ard Forest; dogs welcome
If you’re setting off for Stirlingshire with your eye on finding lots of alfresco activities, you should certainly consider Cobleland Campsite as a base. A couple of miles south of Aberfoyle, this peaceful park is in the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, just on the edge of the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park. That setting means miles and miles of walking and cycling trails stretch out through the surrounding area, with fishing and golf close by too – and watersports, treetop trails, cliff jumping and the like for more intrepid guests. And in fact you don't have to travel far to get started on soaking up the spectacular scenery – you can simply stick around on site, where oak trees tower over the pitches and there’s a backdrop of pretty forest views with the River Forth running along one side of the site. Just beyond the river are paths taking you straight out into Loch Ard Forest for a woodland wander or a dog walk if you’ve brought your pet with you. The pitches at Cobleland are well tended and spacious, with access to all the essential amenities including a launderette, a washing-up area and chemical disposal as well as bathrooms with toilets, showers and disabled facilities. Aberfoyle (five minutes’ drive) has a small supermarket for supplies, plus several places to eat and drink.

What customers say

Lovely, well-kept site, friendly staff, great facilities. Peaceful woodland/riverside setting with walks. Popular coffee/pizza vans. Convenient for Trossachs. Some noise/close pitches, but highly recommended, many plan return trips.

Meadow powered grass and gravel site

Liked I had booked the wrong date and the accommodated me no problem. The pitch was ideal close to all amenities, thank God as the heavens opened as soon as we got there. Everything was clean and tidy. Small shop on site was reasonably priced. If you want the pizza van though be quick as they are very popular and we were lucky to be last served

Meadow powered grass and gravel site

Liked Fabulous little, well maybe not so little, site.
Excellent facilities. Spotlessly clean.
Originally booked into a site in the woods but we're given a spot by the river. Very peaceful and value for money.

Disliked Only complaint was slight hum of traffic but in all honesty this didn't spoil anything.
