Yep some sites are expensive compared with cl's depends on location in my book as to whether they are worth it. I've paid £25 a night for a site in Padstow but its location means we don't need to drive in thus incurring parking charges every time, plus we can have a few beers if we want.

The Kelpies are well worth seeing.
I use Linwater Caravan Park, it is about 20 miles from Falkirk.

Park in the Auld Toon Grangemouth, walk over across the River through the Marina. Or park in the industrial estate at the back of McDonalds, and up the top you will find a gate into the top of the Marina always open as it is the gate for Marina Traffic, walk across the canal and into the back of the Kelpies. Park at the football stadium, obviously not on match day. Or go early.
It is a busy road anyway as it is the same road for the back end of Camelon, Carronshore, Larbert also a lot of traffic for Falkirk but no busier than normal town areas.

We took the camper in, we were directed to a small mh parking area right next to the entrance booths. We were told we were fine to park there all day.
