Date of Visit: November 2019 Unit:  Motorhome
Nights stayed: 2 Travelling as:  With friends
Reviewer: Gambolia 5 reviews from this member

 We arrived around 2 o'clock and were directed to a fully serviced plot. Loads of room for the van which is a 6 berth motor home.

The toilet block is really good and couldn't fault it. The shop although very clean and tidy didn't stock much other than tins of soup and dog food. Later found out it is the first year they were open all the year round so they weren't sure how it would go.

The town is only a mile away so easily walkable. Some tent pitches with more to come EHU available. Ground is fairly flat and we will be going back.

Also had an undercover play park.

 Lovely site, well maintained and clean modern shower/toilet blocks.

Callander is a short walk away or alternatively a regular bus service stops right at the site.

Reviewer: Martyn Storer 1 review from this member

 Choice of grass or hardstanding, very open aspect, lots of grassy spaces. One side of site gets sun well into evening.

Very friendly welcome from office staff.

Facilities were modern and spotless-our only grumble was the push button shower-cutting out so quickly.

20 minute walk into Callander, nice town.

Plenty for the walker and cyclist around the area famous for the old Royalty they say

Reviewer: Jaspermel 1 review from this member

 We’ve stayed at this site for several years but this visit was our last.

I was aware last year the new owners had a pitch allocation policy so you can no longer chose any empty pitch to suit you. So when booking this year I specifically requested we be pitched in a certain area of the site which we know to be generally quieter and away from the children’s playing area, as we have a dog who hates cycles and tends to bark at them. Our request was completely ignored and we were placed facing the main play area, even though there were empty pitches all over.

The entry system had changed which was not explained to us and the key fob wouldn’t let us through the gate we were facing. I went back to reception as I thought our key fob wasn’t working, And found the receptionist’s attitude dismissive at best.

When arriving after a 7 hour drive and in pouring rain, I was hoping for a friendlier reception than the one we received.

The site was noisy until well past 11 at night, partly due to a large group of campers in tents with an event shelter up between them nearby (the site never accepted tents before).

Extra water taps close to the pitches had all been removed or were being used by people as a continuous feed who clearly didn’t want to pay the extra for a proper super pitch, and so had all the waste bins which used to be across the site. The bin compound at the entrance was a mess with glass bottles all over the ground and no clear recycling facilities.

On leaving I was asked if we had enjoyed our stay. I advised the noise at night had tarnished our experience and was told I should have come to find the warden at the time - sorry but at gone 11pm when I’m in my pyjamas I’m not about to head out and get the warden, surely they should be checking on these things themselves?

Obviously the new owners have new ideas, but we much preferred this site how it used to be.

Reviewer: Gadgie1 12 reviews from this member

 The old reviews are clearly out of date.

The WC/shower facilities have recently been refurbished to a superb standard and kept very well maintained.

The site is wonderfully maintained and location is excellent. We liked being apart from the statics and having lots of space.

We do not give ratings for being child friendly.

We will definitely be returning soon !

Date of Visit: October 2018 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: R Abbitt 10 reviews from this member

 A nicely laid-out site with good views and lots of space and mature trees. However, in October, the toilet and shower block was extremely cold, with woefully inadequate heating.

This wasn't helped by there not being a proper closing door for the block as a whole, meaning that cold winds blew through its central corridor. Ok, it's October, it's end of the season, but if a site is still open, the facilities should be warm enough to be useable.

I would give it a high rating in summer, when this wouldn't matter so much, but as we visited in October, my rating is lower.

Reviewer: Lydia H 1 review from this member

 A lovely site, very well maintained, excellent showers and toilet facilities and a handy dog walking area. Good play area for children too. The lady on reception was very helpful.

An easy 10-15 minute walk into Callander. Definitely a recommended site. 


Date of Visit: August 2016 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: 1Bob 1 review from this member

 A beautiful, quiet and well maintained site situated 1mile from the delightful town of Callander. Plenty of hard standing pitches which we were allowed to choose where we wanted to go. The shower block was was spotlessly clean and staff very helpful.

A recommendation would be to go on a boat trip on Loch Katrine, the scenery is wonderful. Callander is a lovely town to spend an afternoon whether shopping, having a meal, a drink in a pub or a picnic by the lake in the park.

Reviewer: Breeserbud1 1 review from this member

 Fantastic site, gorgeous, we were on a hardstanding pitch with waste and water services, only draw back would be to say the waste drain is a bit far away from the van so we would need an extra couple of metres of waste hose as an extension but we brought the waste barrel so no real down side, we put the awning up with rock pegs, (nothing else would do we were told at the time of booking, we can see why) the toilets were very clean and tidy like the rest of the site, staff are extremely friend in reception(never seen any other staff) :)

We walked into Callander by the main road, (we were told there was a woodland walk but couldn't find it). It was about a mile and only took about 25 mins, we went in to the Waverly hotel for dinner, it was lush, would recommend it, lovely and friendly people, we got a taxi back which was only £4, would certainly recommend this site and will be back soon, well done Gart for a great weekend, Thank you.
