  • Peaceful spacious site 15 minutes' drive from Glasgow city centre
  • Loch Lomond and the Trossachs within 45 minutes’ drive
  • Five minutes' walk from spotting deer at Frankfield Loch
Park up for your hols at Red Deer Village Holiday Park, a family-friendly site less than five minutes’ drive from the small Lanarkshire town of Stepps and within easy reach of Glasgow city centre. This is a top spot for a city break with the peace of a countryside retreat: those who crave urban explores will be well-served by Glasgow – a 15-minute drive or a 25-minute train ride from base – for strolls through botanic gardens, sups at distilleries, culture at museums and galleries, and splendid shopping. For those more in need of a rural getaway, there’s plenty round here to satisfy too: the Frankfield Loch wildlife sanctuary is a five-minute walk away for wanders among wild deer, and a 20-minute walk along paths from the site will bring intrepid adventurers to Cardowan Moss woodland, where there’s a network of trails to follow on foot or by bike. Don’t spend too long away from site the though – settle in for quiet evenings away from crowds and chaos with some self-catered evenings by the barbecue (buy gas on site), piling on food picked up from the well-stocked shop nearby. Otherwise, Stepps has a handy pub, café and restaurant within 15 minutes' walk of the site. Clean up after dinner by dispatching humans to the always-hot showers, and sort dishes (and stained clothes from sloppy eaters) at the dishwashing facilities and launderette.

What customers say

This well-kept park offers a clean, quiet stay with excellent, spotless restrooms. It’s steps from Stepps station, with easy, fast access to Glasgow. Reviewers loved the spacious sites and secure feel. Despite a few notes on dated amenities or limited staff, cleanliness, location, and helpful staff are major draws.

Primitive grass tent campsite (small)

Liked The reception staff was lovely with greeting us and very helpful with finding our allocated pitch area! Great local area with a few pubs and places to eat nearby if you have a vehicle

Disliked Showers got very hot quite quick and the shower heads made it so it was difficult to wash yourself as they spray a dome and not a stream

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review we are happy to hear you found our staff lovely and helpful. We take on board your comments about the showers and will look at this when making any future improvements. We hope you will come back again

Local attractions

Take to the car for wanders by water at Hogganfield Park and loch, a 10-minute drive away... or drive for 45 minutes to Loch Lomond and the Trossachs to see its huge lake and lush landscape. If it’s not a holiday without a go on the green, there are four golf courses to pick from within a 10-minute drive of Red Deer. Rifling the racks more your bag? Glasgow Fort shopping centre – also reachable in 10 – stays open till late. Or, for organised antics morning, noon and evening, hone your sniping skills at Delta Force Paintball, then reel in a couple of trout at Mollinsburn fishery, both a 15-minute drive from base. Kids might be mighty keen to take on the rides at M&D’s Scotland’s Theme Park, the slides of Time Capsule Waterpark, or the circuits at ScotKart go-karting – and parents will be pleased to know they're all around a speedy 20 minutes from site. Thrillseekers, meanwhile, can be paragliding and hang gliding at Cloudbusters or snowboarding and skiing at Snow Factor, within half an hour.
