We stayed in one on the static caravans described as a Sheiling. It was actually only on arrival that we found out that this was the most basic of caravans designed for hillwalkers etc staying a night at a time. However the van was new and very clean.
The accommodation was perfectly fine for us. There was no cooker, but there was a hob, which was OK for us that weekend. The one let down was that there were no glasses or tumblers. I assumed they were just missing and my partner went to reception to ask for some. He was told that the Sheiling is a basic caravan and tumblers are not provided. I thought this very odd. I would have thought most people staying for any length of time will require a cold drink at some point. We were given a couple of disposable cups but I didn't find that very satisfactory.
Apart from this we had a nice weekend. The site is a short drive to Aberfoyle and the Trossachs. The area surrounding the site is nice and the bluebell woods nice for a walk. There seems to be a good mix of camping, tourers and statics.
This is the second time we've been, first time was in a tourer.
Shower facilities are clean and sufficient. Staff are helpful (apart from the cups).
Just need to sort out our Scottish weather. Sleet and freezing in May!

Stayed one night in August 2011 with my two kids aged 9 and 5. Phoned in the morning to make a reservation and had to pay in advance.
Arrived on site and had a friendly welcome and someone came along and showed us where our pitch was. It was close to the kids park and amenities block.
The toilets, cleaning facilities and games room were clean and tidy.
Overall we had a good stay at the park and would recommend to others. This was our first campsite for over 20 years, so not sure how it compares to others!

Great little site in a nice scenic and quiet location, weekend we stayed it rained most of the weekend but the pitch stayed dry enough and we did not flood.
Only 2 showers for both men and women but were always clean and never had to queue for them.
Shop had all the essentials and was well priced. Games room/lounge area was a nice extra but could maybe have done with updating, owners were very helpful and even drove us down to our pitch and told us what was in the area and wished us a nice stay etc.
Pub close by (think it was called the Black Bull?) was a great little pub with a pool table and dart board in a room at the back.
Would visit again

Our first time camping and testing our stuff. Firstly I phoned ahead to book this as it was Easter weekend, we were told we were lucky as they were busy. At a cost of £49.50 for two nights, with electrics and water we thought it was expensive, but what do we know. Any way took us 2 hours to erect our Mojave 5 tent. Lol.
As for the camp site staff were friendly, toilets were immaculate, lots of hot water, small play area for children, and small shop with basics. The tent area was far from busy!
All in all camp site for us was so so, but that's our first time.

We arrived on 3rd September 2010 for a two night camping stay.
We were greeted at reception by a very friendly person who explained everything to us.
Attached to the reception is a shop. Which has a range of basic food requirements in stock.
We then followed the person from reception to our pitch. A lovely pitch with nice scenery around us and a great day, we couldn't have planned it any better.
There was a kid's playground only a stones throw away from our pitch.
The toilet block and tv room was about 150 metres from our pitch.
The toilet block was great. It was nice and clean and the showers were nice and hot. No tokens or extra money either for the shower.
The tv area was a little outdated and could maybe do with an upgrade, but there again we hadn't come here to watch t.V.
All in all this was a great weekend. A very clean and scenic location with warm and friendly people.
One of our best camping weekends ever and we'll most definitely be back.

Wonderful location, close to cycle tracks, Queen Elizabeth Park and beautiful countryside. Site immaculate, facilities excellent (but only 2 shower cubicles in ladies toilet) and staff helpful and friendly.
It is such a shame that tents are relegated to an area which is quite small, and because of this, where you can pitch a tent has to be quite regimented. The area consists of three narrow strips of grass separated by a U-shaped gravel drive where you park your car in front of your pitch. The size of each pitch is also limited which means you will be very close to your neighbours.
I spent 2 nights, and my experience of each quite different. The children’s play area was very close to the tents - so I was prepared for extra noise.
Not sure that I would return, as the children’s play area is definitely too close to the tents. In an ideal world would be great if they put families with children next to this area.
