Clean and spacious but a poor choice for camping with a tent.

Aug 2026

Liked The site was spacious and it was clean. It was good to see the ducks and geese and it was clean. The residents on the site were very friendly.

Disliked I would not recommend this site for tent Campers and I would not expect that to be a surprise to the owners. This is a site for fixed caravans, permanent touring caravans and then tourers in caravans and motor homes. For tents and those travelling without electricity there is very poor provision. The location for tents is pre-determined at the edge of the site and the furthest point from the washing and toilet facilities. This is incredibly awkward at night when a significant walk is needed if the toilet is required. There is no assistance for light electrical requirement, such as a socket, or even USB point for charging phones or a laptop. There is no communal fridge/freezer for ice packs to be frozen or small amounts of perishables to be stored. The sink does provide hot water but it is located outside. Fine in the dry and when warm but not good at other times. There are few camping tables and none in the space allocated to tents. I may have missed facilities which were in fact elsewhere. If that is the case then I will put that down to very poor welcome and orientation. At no point did the owners pop over to check if all was ok. It honestly felt as though provision for tents was a complete afterthought and I suspect a little bit inconvenient. I think that we probably made a mistake in booking this site and maybe should have expected that tent campers were not the priority, this review is intended to help others like ourselves who may not understand the nature of the site. We were the only tent campers on a very large site and this experience will make me do better research in future.

From the manager: Hello I am very sorry you didn't enjoy your stay with us. We have lots of customers come with tents but they have electric hook ups. You did chose a non electric pitch so I am a bit surprised as to why you thought there would be the provision to charge a laptop or phones. If you had asked in reception we would have gladly popped some perishables in the fridge freezer for you. Most of our non electric tent campers are cyclists and we have never had any complaints about the pitches nor the 5-8 minute walk to the toilet/shower blocks. Sorry again that you were disappointed

Highly recommended and we would definitely return.

Jun 2026

Liked Lovely welcoming hosts. Brilliant kitchen and toilet/shower block. Super quiet (although I missed the sound of children playing joyfully). Amazing forest adjacent with lovely walk up to the waterfall. Large amount of space for each pitch. Close to lochs, hills, coast and towns and around an hour of Glasgow.

Disliked There was very little shade
