What customers say

Great value stopover near Fraserburgh & the sea, often with seal views. Owners are praised for being friendly & knowledgeable with local tips. Pitches are basic but sufficient. Some road noise, but it dies down. Basic facilities match the low price. Highly recommended for a budget, convenient stay.

Alistair D.

Primitive cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Great wee location and host Cecilia was really pleasant and engaging. If we are in the area we will go back there as fantastic local amenities on the doorstep.

Disliked Nothing that is within the grasp of man to change, the sea smell was extremely sulphurous (eggy) at times 🤷🏻‍♂️

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for this review and hope to see you here again at some point.

As a note it this summer we experienced a particularly unusual August storm (Floris) which drove new seaweed onto the shore, which then was followed by a heatwave causing the sea smell you mentioned. Normally the seaweed is dry and odourless by now or washes up in colder times so it doesn’t usually smell. You can’t control nature!

Good stop over

Liked Great stop for overnight. Simple and easy. Sea view and a chance to see seals. Directly opposite, just over the street, 2 benches to sit and watch the sea.

Great value for money!!!

Liked Wir hatten einen wundervollen Stellplatz auf der Wiese am Haus mit Blick auf's Meer. Dank des Hinweises der Betreiberin haben wir die Robben auf der Sandbank beobachten können. Was für ein Erlebnis!!!
Wir haben den Aufenthalt trotz des Dauerregens am Morgen sehr genossen. Danke!

Powered cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Great stop for overnight. Only room for 5 vans. We stayed with the electric hookup and the owner came out, plugged us in and was very knowledgeable about the area and things to do and see in Fraserburgh.

Disliked Slightly noisy with the road until quite late, but didn’t notice it eventually.
