This is a great site, either as a single night stop to break a journey, or for longer visits in the Glasgow area.

The site couldn't be easier to get to; northbound it is the exit after Hamilton services and southbound the exit after Bothwell services.

The site is very level, with good, surfaced roadways and footpaths. Pitches are easily accessible.

The convenience of having a site so close to the motorway does mean that there is inevitably some road noise, however, we found that we just didn't notice it after a short while. The weekend we were there was warm and sunny enough to sit out in the awning for a few hours, and the road noise was not intrusive.

There is a Toby Carvery a few minutes walk from the site, and a hotel with a restaurant for non-residents half-mile approx from the site.

As the site only opened in October, the grass and landscaping will improve in appearance over the summer (weather permitting).

The site facilities are excellent. We were also at the site for a few days at New Year, when the weather was bitter, and the showers and loos were warm and cosy. They were also immaculately clean.

For families, there is a good playground on site and the amusement park a few minutes walk away, and for all, the country park is adjacent to the site.

Last but not least, the site staff were very friendly and helpful.

Just had a very enjoyable 2 night stay here. For a site that just opened on the day we arrived it was very organised - as always with a caravan club site.

The pitches are all level and very spacious. Toilets blocks are to usual cc standard, with plenty hooks and shelves in the showers which are very handy.

Out and about there are plenty things to do as the site is built on the edge of a country park.

The grass on the site is a bit muddy at the moment as it is a new site and has not had time to establish itself, the great Scottish summer has not helped. But as all pitches are hard standing and as long as everyone stays off it, it will get a chance to grow and develop into a lovely site.

This site is temporarily closed, the Caravan and Camping facilities at Strathclyde Country Park have now been taken over by the Caravan Club.

They are currently revamping the site and we understand that they will be open again September / October 2012 for reservations. We will update the listing at that time.

The site on first view is lovely, all grass sites, pick your own, loads of trees etc but it when you enter the toilet/shower facilities that things go downhill rapidly.

Very very dated with paint flaking off all over the ceiling and top windows (health and safety issue), cobwebs which have obviously been in residence for a long time and not removed in the time we were there.

The toilets, sinks, showers were cleaned but the walls were not! Four toilet blocks two already closed down.

On last night the ladies toilet block had 'locked itself' and had to walk to the other block on far side of site. We complained to reception and the gentleman in there said he was aware of the poor state of repair but there was nothing he could do and when told about the locked toilet block - 'yeah it keeps doing that'.

Only stayed due to friends family been close by in Motherwell, otherwise would have left on first night. On a more positive note Strathclyde Park is beautiful with loads to do for all ages, may go back when it has been taken over by Club.

Just returned from camping in Europe, still had that itch to do more, didn't realise that this site was so close to home. Very cheap £10 per night and £3. 40 ehu. On arrival was given maps, and parks pros and cons! We liked this site, had the one night noisy party, they left the next day, showers very basic, 10 mins walk to M&Ds, was told by reception this park was being privatised next year. Needs work/modernisation, not privatisation

We stayed were overnight on our way up north as family close by. On arrival site entrance looks really run down and dated, however staff friendly and welcoming.

We were given a map of the site and told to chose where we wanted to park up. The site was fairly quiet which was just as well as there seemed to be no order to the way the caravans were parked up.

To be fair this was probably due to the grass being really muddy, but there didn't seem to be anyone around to guide people how and where to park.

The camp site is very green and in a good location, just down the road from Scotlands theme park. Plenty of space for kids to play although only a few swings available and lots of area for dog walking.

On the downside the toilet block was disgusting! My husband said he had seen worse but I don't think I have. The ladies is all tiled walls and floor and the tiles were filthy.

The showers had a white plastic shower curtain which was stained orange at the bottom and this was working its way up the curtain! This same orange stuff stained the walls and floor of the shower.

This site is ideal if you are only staying over night and have your own facilities on board or family nearby where you can jump in their shower.
