We decided to return back to camping after a 10 year absence. Previously we had camped in a large frame tent but always had a desire to camp in a trailer tent. We got one and had to collect from the seller on the may bank holiday weekend. We decided to go direct to a site for the weekend to test our new unit and ourselves.
I booked Cruachan last minute and no electric hook up was available, hey we always camped with no electricity before.
I could not have picked a better site for our first outing Cruachan Farm is a fantastic site for just getting away from it all. The site was very busy so I thought that we may have problems with showers etc. As there were only two blocks that I saw on site each with male & female facilities with 2 showers each but as busy as it was there was no queuing so no problems.
The weather was wet and windy but the beauty of the place just makes up for it. The whole area is stunning. The site its self is very well run, friendly and welcoming. It’s a working farm so lambs were abundant, we had a visit to our tent by a Duck looking to be fed which my daughter took great delight in doing. As busy as the site was there was no noise after 10 pm just the occasional conversation or laugh.
We found the staff to be very helpful even more so during our second visit to this site. We never used the restaurant which is located at the entrance of the farm/site however it was busy and talking to people who had used it had nothing but praise.
There is ample room for tents of all sizes without EHU, the general tent area is sloping but there are ample flat areas, there is also an area just within the woods used for tents.
We were located where the Caravans and statics are although there was no EHU available as the site was full, what was great was we had a very large sized pitch which was flat and excellent for pegging out.
Lovely walks from site to the loch shore and the scenery all around is just beautiful.
Kilin is a lovely small town/village with loads of choices for eating drinking etc. A good Co-op that is open till late stocking all that you need. Freshly baked bread products go very fast so get in there quickly. Fresh farm eggs are available daily from the farm.
We returned for a second visit in August this time for a 5 night stay and again we had a fantastic time, the most relaxing time you could wish for.
This is an established site which is very well run and is highly recommended for a very relaxing time. I feel very confident recommending this site.

Very nice atmosphere. Nice setting. There are few level tent spaces, and very limited toilet facilities, so I'm glad my partner and I went out of season (late September) when we were one of only 3 tents there. We paid £9 per night.
There are Highland cattle on the adjacent farm, and hens. And a nice woodland walk down to the lochside. I get on well with dogs, but I don't like them being allowed to roam freely on a campsite where they can cock a leg against a tent or foul the grass. Unfortunately, at least one resident seemed to let his dog wander the site on its own for much of the time we were there, showing little respect for such concerns.
The onsite restaurant wasn't open during our stay, but decent meals were available in nearby Killin. And the riverside information centre there displays a very comprehensive set of meteorological predictions, including assessments at various altitudes for walkers, climbers and boats.

A very quiet site ideal for fishing Holiday. Plenty hot water in shower block. 5 minute walk to loch side. On site restaurant has good prices, food amazing.
We will definitely be back next year no cc clicks here, everyone made to feel at home.
3 mile hike to nearest town with shops for everyone. All in a very beautiful place.

We found this site by accident - we initially wanted to go to another nearby but it was full up - but i'm so glad we did.Well run,clean,cracking scenery and very friendly owners all combined to make it a great family holiday.There is a lovely walk down throught the woods to ther lochside,plenty of room to walk your dog also.
There is a small playpark to keep the kids amused and ours loved going to see the highland cattle just off the site.The picturesque village of Killin is only a 5 minute drive away for all the supplies you will need.
We ate in the on-site restaurant one night and it was resonably priced and the food was excellent.All in all a great site which we will return to this year.

If you want evening entertainment, shops, large play area, and nearby facilities then this is not the site for you! However for peace and quiet and de- stressing it's just the place!
We arrived quite late on a Friday evening and there was plenty of room. I did note however that if it was busy hooks ups were limited. Plenty of space so not crowded. Room to sit outside and take in the scenery. Toilets were OK. Gents not very clean- but then the cleaner can't be cleaning 24/7
For us it was perfect. Owners very friendly, dogs welcome. Lovely walks, 2 minutes from caravan and some better ones from Killin. A map with several walks may be obtained at the visitors centre in Killin- I recommend the one which takes you round the shores of the loch- all on the level, about 3 miles. Passing the pub on the way back- perfect.
There is a restaurant on site.
We did think it was a bit on the expensive side but we will most definitely be there again

Along with 2 other sites this site is very good in our opinion its pretty well run and usually get on with the family tent at any time of year [within opening months] we were there 3 times last season and will be there again this season, its a good family site a park for the wee ones and a little pond also a great walk through the forrest down to loch tay ,killin is nearby and aberfeldy is about 15 miles away , its a good site to get away from your usuall busy life in town/city. Have a few beers and relax. Dont worry its quiet after about 11 at night.
