Hello,

I'm looking to go away for a couple of nights in July for my wife's birthday. We'll be in our own touring caravan with our two kids 3 and 1.

I'm looking for recommendations for any campsites with touring pitches right next to the beach, not a 5 mins walk, but right next to it. We stayed at West Beach caravan park near Elgin once before and we could literally step out of the caravan and onto a pebble beach. I've tried them already but they are unfortunately fully booked.

Any ideas within 3-4 hours max of Aberdeen?

TIA

Hi

Try this link, sites on beaches within 50 miles of Aberdeen.

You can move the centre point and add facilities using the filters to search more

Cheers

Or the independent site at Fortrose on the other side of the peninsula: you get sunsets & less formality. Ullapool is right on the beach & ferries / fishing boats add to the interest. Gairloch area has sites by the beach. Dornoch is just a dune walk from the beach. Fort William / Oban area too.
But they’ll all be on Webmaster’s link.

Not sure how long from Aberdeen, but can thoroughly recommend muasdale touring park on the way to Campbeltown. Right on a lovely beach with seals etc.

Thanks for the suggestions folks! Did Ullapool and Gairloch a couple of years back and they are beautiful indeed but the midges nearly ruined the trip. Will look at all of your suggestions and get something booked ASAP!

As stated above Rosemarkie or Fortrose, and you can watch the dolphins in the Moray Firth.
