Visited this site along with family members, also in a twin axle tourer. Chris & May, the wardens, couldn't have been more welcoming locating us next to one another. Although the roads round the tourer area area are a little tight for big outfits the actual pitches easily accommodated our caravan, awning and Kuga. Good hardstanding with a good EHU. Grey waste and fresh water is never far away.
The tourer area is beautiful with mature trees and plants all over. There is also a small children's play area in this section but there is an even bigger and newer one near the entrance so kids are well looked after. The grass is well kept and didn't appear too wet despite the weather in Scotland this year.
The toilet block, although a little old was very clean, infact it was the first thing our 7 & 11 year olds commented on.
The new reception and security keyed barriers are always a welcome addition. The little shop was stocked with the bare essentials but fresh rolls & papers etc could be ordered daily.
The static and Lodge area was also well kept and looked like a fairly new addition as the plant and greenery were in their early stages but again the area was immaculate. All respect to the owners.
There is a magnificent woodland walk around the park which Chris has kept cut and tidy. You definitely can't get lost and its great for hide and seek.
Alyth is only a few miles away where there is a great chippy and fantastic Chinese on the same side of the road. The Linn falls are worth a walk and you definitely need to visit Peel farm. The coffee is great and the cakes are so big and wonderful you'd swear they are genetically modified.
Strathmore Golf centre serves a great meal and you also get a discount if you mention where you are staying. It is worth booking to avoid disappointment. This is between Aylth and Blairgowrie.
Overall a great long weekend in a beautiful park. Quiet and calming but a great base if you want to get hectic and use it as a wind down afterwards.
Definitely be back and highly recommend a visit.

Have just returned from a short stay at this lovely site. We were greeted by the very friendly owners and directed to our pitch which, compared to a lot of sites nowadays, was very spacious. There is also a static area which appeared very spacious as well.
The toilet block was always spotless but could do with being modernised. The showers had very little room for changing, but always plenty of hot water. Although there were heaters they were never on while we were there and the toilet block was very cold. Maybe they had been switched off for the 'summer' !
There is a lovely walk from the site which took about 20 minutes. Grass has been cut, plenty of bins and some picnic tables so it would be a nice walk and picnic area in nice weather.
The site is about 4 miles from Alyth so if it's a quiet, relaxing time you are after this is perfect. There are also a few golf courses nearby which serve food.
Perhaps a bit remote for a lot of people but wouldn't put us off from returning in the future.

Just back from a wonderful stay in Nethercraig. We stayed in one of the 3 bedroom luxury lodges. It was beautiful: modern, clean and fully equipped.
The site is so well maintained and has a lovely walk on site.
We visited the linn waterfall, went to peel farm nearby for walks and lunch. Walked round black water reservoir. Visited glamis castle, Kirriemuir and Blairgowrie.
We had a lovely Chinese from alyth the nearest village.
Would highly recommend for families, walkers, or anyone wanted a relaxing break.
We'll be back.

Peaceful campsite in a lovely setting. Shower blocks and laundry kept very clean. Janis and John the wardens at the time are the best, very friendly.
Playpark for small children. Spacious pitches with EHU.
Small shop on site for basic necessities. 5 minute drive in to Alyth where there is a small spar and a scotmid. Would NOT recommend any of the takeaway establishments in Alyth!
Strathearn golf centre 10 minutes away is good for a meal.
Tesco and filling station in Blairgowrie about 15 minutes drive.
Very near the angus glenns for keen hill walkers.
Site taken over and May the new warden is very friendly and helpful.

Visited this site at the start of the 6 weeks holiday and was amazed to find how quiet it was. Finding the site was quite easy as its well signposted although it is tucked well away from civilisation.
The site is split into 2 sections, the statics and the tourers/tents with the toilet block and dishwashing facilities located in the centre of the touring pitches.
There are two toilets and two showers in both ladies and gents but as the site started to fill up at the end of the week a further 2 toilets were opened within the block to cater for the extra people.
Showers were free to use, although there was limited space within the cubicle to get dried/dressed. There is also a laundry room which cost £3 for the washing m/c and 50p for the dryer.
The site has 2 play areas which my kids (9 and 11) were not impressed with as there was not a lot for them to do there.
The surrounding area is quite scenic and the Reekie Linn Falls further along the road are well worth a visit for a picnic and a stroll along the river but take care with children as the path is unfenced and does get quite steep.
Peel Farm has a lovely tea room/garden if you've forgotten the picnic. Dunkeld, 20 mins drive away offers great views of the river
Tay and The Hermitage in Dunkeld is also well worth visiting
Although there are no toilet facilities there. We didn't eat out much although we did have lunch at the Strathmore Golf Club about 10 mins away. The food was excellent and the portions were huge!
Our week at Nethercraig was a truly relaxing holiday and if you want to get away from it all then that's the place to visit.

Me and my husband and our friends went camping here in june 2011. Loved this site as it was very quiet owner very friendly and he took us up to where we could pitch our tent. He then came back over few hours later to ask if we were ok and if we needed anything thought that was really nice of him.
We were on a pitch right beside toilet block which was very handy. Only thing I will say about toilet block as that shower cubicles are quite small for showering and getting dressed in but all in all they are kept clean.
This is a very quiet site and there was only another 2 tents when we were camping but didn't hear anything from them tents are pitched in the grass in the middle and tourers are around the outside but was very quiet this weekend we went up.
I would recommend this site if you are after some peace and quiet and we will definitely be going back there again x
