  • Touring park with river and mountain views
  • Fish for salmon and trout on a private stretch of the river
  • Heated amenities block with free hot showers
Might you want a stay in a riverbank location in pretty Perthshire, with striking mountain views and a scenic section of bank from which to cast off for salmon and trout? Go on, you’ve Earned it. Find this – and a fair bit more – at Braidhaugh Holiday Park on the banks of the River Earn, 10 minutes’ walk from Perthshire’s market town of Crieff and listed as a spectacular scenery site for its mountain and river views. You can pick up a permit at reception to fish on Braidhaugh’s own part of the Earn, or use the park as a base for touring Perthshire and other top Scottish sites. Gentle canters on horseback or foot are nearby too: walks of all levels are all around the Crieff area and horse riding is available at Braidhaugh’s sister site in the area, Loch Tay Highland Lodges. Facilities on site include a heated and clean amenities block with free power showers, toilets, a wash area, shaver points and hairdryers. Facilities for disabled guests are in the main shower block. Clothes can be washed, dried and pristinely pressed in the launderette (get the other half to do it, you’re on holiday), and the games room with table football, dartboard, air hockey and TV should keep the kids occupied on rainy days. Top up essentials and toiletries at the onsite shop, or head into Crieff for more substantial supplies, restaurants, pubs and hotels.

FHU gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked: Friendly welcome on arrival, pitch level and easy set up with own water pipe.
Great walks nearby and shops/cafes in walking distance. Great wee bar on site although more outdoor seating required.

Camping pod (hot tub, ensuite)

Liked: Right next to the river for fishing.
The peace and quiet
It's only a 2 minute drive from the shops
Plenty of places to walk the dogs
Friendly staff

Disliked: Only thing i disliked was Having to keep dogs on a leash at all times

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Reece, thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and found many positives of staying on the park. We ask that all pet owners keep their pets on a leash while on the park out of respect for those guests who don't have pets and perhaps have allergies or phobias. As you no doubt experienced, there is a large public field right next door to the park where dogs can run freely.

Very good place to see and do things

Liked: It was very good spot very quiet and a very good pitch staff are very friendly and helpful

Disliked: Just am not a big drinker but I would have liked to have a drink at night but the bar was only open in the afternoon

From the manager: Hi there - thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we really appreciate this. We are not able to open the bar/shop beyond 5pm, but luckily we're just a few minutes away from the town centre where there are plenty of bars.

Nice location, clean facilities and friendly staff.

Gillian O. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

FHU gravel travel trailer campsite (hot tub)

Liked: We stayed on a fully serviced pitch with a wood burning hot tub. We liked that the park was quiet and we enjoyed access to the hot tub during out stay. We used the shower facilities and they were very clean and tidy. We ended up staying an extra night and the reception staff were very helpful in arranging this for us. We liked that the check in time was 1pm, as some places are later than this and the park was dog friendly.

Disliked: The wi-fi signal isn't great on the park. It would have been good to have a hairdryer in the shower area and the on-site shop didn't stay open past 5pm. Check-out time was 11am, which was fine, however 12 noon would be better and allows for an hour turnaround.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Gillian, thanks for your review. We're glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you again in the future. The hot tubs take a couple of hours to empty, clean and refill, which is why check out is 11am, so they are ready for the next guests coming in.

Lovely place to stay will be back

Making priceless memories with our children.

From the manager: Hi Anonymous,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and it sounds as if you made the most out of your time here with your family. Our check out time for accommodation is actually 10am, and 11am for touring pitches, so if you were to visit again you have an extra half an hour.

Great stay, will be back

Local attractions

Ah, Perthshire…you could spend weeks here and still have to go back for more. More fishing, great golfing, red squirrels, country parks and historical highlights including Scotland’s oldest library and Iron Age hill forts – all here, along with the essentials of whisky trailing and big city shopping. Nearby Crieff was a wild-west style cattle rustling town in times of yore; it’s tamer these days but thrillseekers can check out the Crieff Hydro Outdoor Activity Centre to whirl around an aerial adventure course on tightropes, ziplines and cargo nets, or get sporty at some of the dozens of indoor and outdoor pursuits here including golf, riding, swimming and football. The centre has a reputation for being particularly sprog-friendly, as does the popular MacRosty Park: there’s a good-sized children’s playground here for all ages, beside a café for tired parents. From MacRosty, set off along the River Earn to see the trees on Lady Mary’s Walk, one of Perthshire’s most popular strolls for its wealth of wildlife and autumnal blaze. Another top tree-based walk – Perthshire is known as Big Tree Country, after all – is around the oldest managed forest in Scotland, Craigvinean, or the Atholl Estate and its wild tree garden, with possibly the biggest Douglas fir you’ll ever see.
