Excellent reception -most welcoming and helpful. Fully serviced and level pitches. Excellent toilet block to usual Caravan Club standards. Forfar a good centre for the surrounding areas. About two minutes walk from shops. Very good dog walks (off lead) adjacent. Quiet when we were there but next to public park which might have the potential for noise as some have experienced. Only spent one night as moving on.

We haven't stayed here since the caravan club took over this site. We had called and asked to look round the site. This was no problem and the busy wardens answered our question and made us welcome. On our arrival we were quickly booked in and on our way to choose a pitch. We chose a large hard standing with a view of the Loch.
This site has been upgraded by the club and the facilities are very clean and modern. The wardens are never off the go and the site is a credit to them. Rolls and papers are available in the morning from the office and Forfar is a lovely town with some good shops and unfortunately a few supermarkets. Saddlers and McLaren's the bakers are a must. There are lots of places nearby that are worth visiting. We have still some to go for our next visit.

We turned up without a booking and were lucky to get the last pitch on what is a very busy and popular site.
Facilities block is fairly new and kept immaculately well by the wardens. Good sized hardstanding pitches but the circular layout does give an impression of being a little closed in.
Close to shops etc and this is a good base for the coast, Dundee and Perth and the many other attractions such as Glamis castle a few miles up the road.
The CC have certainly done well with a site it would be hard to fault. If anything we found a bit too close to the public park and children's play area but it depends what you are looking for.

As previous reviews have said, this is now a first class site. Forfar too has been much improved and has a good range of sports and leisure facilities, independant shops and supermarkets.
However, despite its popularity, we didn't really enjoy our stay at Lochside. It is generally busy with families in summer and couples during the low season. The circular layout of the site can give the illusion of being crowded although the pitches are generous.
It simply didn't seem to have an atmosphere where we felt we could relax. It's more of a base from which you can travel than a destination in itself. But it is a very good base.

Excellent site with loads of dog walks adjacent to the site. In Forfar you have ASDA, Tesco, Lidl, Aldi, Original Factory Shop and Home Bargains plus lots of traditional town shops. Most of these shops are within a 10 minute walk from the site.
Forfar itself is very central for touring. The wardens at the site were first class. Like the previous reviewer we had a serviced site with lots of elbow room between us and the neighbouring pitches. If you are travelling to Perth go via Meigle and stop at the village bistro for coffee and scones (with fantastic jam!).
It is one site we will return to.

Stayed here for a full week using it as a central base to discover the wider area. This was our first visit but definitely not our last. Great pitches along the back fence (number 30 or so I think) which get the sun at the back all afternoon and have lots of space for BBQ and loungers. Huge pitches too.
The site, service and amenities are excellent. We have two children (2 & 7 years) so the nearby play ground, crazy golf, mini golf course etc were ideal and the eldest even managed to cycle around the Loch which is an easy 25 minute flat ride.
There's very little in Forfar but there is decent supermarkets to stock up. We enjoyed nearby Pictavia and a trip to Camerdown Park in Dundee (huge!). Along the coast it's worth the effort to find Lunan Bay, a beautiful beach with excellent dunes. We didn't like Arbroath, very tacky!
Would definitely recommend to anyone.
