The site was good on the whole, toilets clean and the pool was a bonus BUT because of the pitches being gravel we could not put up our awning! Although we had metal pegs we could not get them into the ground. This was very irritating as after seeing a review on this site re rock pegs I phoned the site and was assured metal pegs were completely fine. On looking around the site everyone who had an awning had rock pegs. So our 2 days/nights were spent without our awning which with 2 adults and 2 teenagers in a 4 berth caravan is a much needed addition to our holiday. We were originally going to book 4 nights but I'm glad with the awning situation we only booked 2.
The site is in a very good location - near to a Morrisons and the town centre but it is just off a busy main road (A915) and if you are given a pitch near the road (as we were) it is a bit noisy. Ask for one further in if traffic noise bothers you.
The site is neat, tidy and well kept and the pitches are a good size.

Just returned from Cairnsmill and had a lovely weekend. On arrival staff were very helpful and friendly. Our pitch was large with plenty space for awning and car.
Toilets and showers were spotless clean at all times of the day. No shower curtains in site, lovely large cubicles with shower screen and benches and pegs for your clothes. The only negative was the push button showers that seemed to last about 5 seconds at a time.
The kids had a great time playing in the parks, and the swimming pool complex was great, especially in wet weather. Towels are provided at the pool which is a bonus. The bar area looked nice and there was entertainment on over the weekend. We didn't use the the bar so can't comment on prices.
There is a small shop which seemed to stock all the essentials. Overall a lovely site and will return again.

Excellent site. Large hard standing pitches with water and drainage on every bollard. These are shared so you cant hook up water and drainage. You will need decent rock pegs for awnings on the hard standings. There are even picnic benches to use. The grounds are very well kept and the site staff are really friendly. There are four small swing parks for children and my daughter spent most of her time cycling between them with friends she had made.
The swimming pool is great and has a jacuzzi, sauna and a separate toddler pool. There is a bar area and games room for children. They have entertainment at weekends. The site also has Wifi which was free when we stayed.
There are statics on site but these are privately owned and well maintained. We didn't see large groups or rowdy families that we have encountered on other sites. There is a small tent area that is on a bit of a slope and looks like it would be suited to smaller tents.
There are four toilet blocks which were always extremely clean and warm. The one nearest us had large shower cubicles so you could actually get showered without soaking your clothes and have plenty of space to get changed. There is full recycling and laundry facilities.
Morrisons is a five minute walk and you can walk into St Andrews in half an hour. There is also an Aldi just past Morrisons.
We paid £28 a night in the Easter Holidays and although the site was full it never felt busy. When you consider a Caravan Club site would have been £25 a night without a swimming pool, bar, swing parks or Wifi then I think think it is well worth the extra £3. We will come back here.
The site does not have a direction sign on the road on approach and could be missed. We came to it from the A91 into St Andrews and then turned along the A915 Kircaldy Road which takes you up past Morrisons. The site is up the hill on the right hand side after a third of a mile.

Just back from spending 5 great nights at this site. The new swimming pool has been opened and is fantastic, our 2 kids spent most of the holiday in it.
Pool is open from 10am-10pm at night. We never used the bar but there is a games room with pool table etc.
Pitch we were on was a hard standing, drained really well, hard to get awning pegs to stick in so would recommend threaded rock pegs.
Toilet/Shower facilities were great, probably the best we have encountered on our travels.
Site a bit more expensive than we would normally pay at £30 a night but facilities and pool are well worth it due to Scottish weather!
There is a large Morrisons Supermarket within walking distance. St Andrews is a lovely town and the coastline is also worth a drive round.
Will definitely be returning and would highly recommend this site.

This is an excellent site. My husband and I went here on Friday night until Sunday and found everything more than we hoped for. Friendly welcome, Large Touring Pitch with lovely views. A short and enjoyable walk into town and also an hourly bus service passes the site. On the Sunday a friendly and nice gentleman called John who we think was the warden, showed us around the newly refurbished Bar/Games room and fantastic new Pool/Sauna ect. Everyone was so nice. The young Lady in the reception/shop was extremely nice too. We highly recommend this site and suspect that we may have to book well in advance in the future in order to get a pitch. Lovely safe site for us to bring our grandchildren next time. Many thanks to all who we met.

We visited this site for a one night stay in August 2011 and was amazed at how nice it was.
The toilets and showers were fantastic, much better then most I have seen and so clean.
The site was extremely clean too.
There was a small bar which we used and there was a small swimming pool with a larger one under construction, which looked as if it would be very good when it was complete next year. Pity that all sites can't follow their example.
The only criticism that we had was that we were on a pitch near to the road which was a little noisy but the benefits outweighed this minor point.

Excellent site. Stayed for two nights at end of May start of half term weekend. Close to St Andrews and walking distance to Morrisons. On arrival I was given a sheet describing how to park car and caravan on pitch as they are all positioned to the left side of the pitch and car the right side.
This is great as you never get another caravan right beside you for noise levels. Pitch sizes are huge with a little wooden fence either side. We had hard standing on large slate gravel which was good when wet but not so great when small kids fall over as did mine. She bruised and grazed all down one side of her face.
Toilets and showers were the best I've ever experienced when camping. Very hot, clean and spacious.Showers even had a glass partition to separate the shower from the dry seat / hooks / dressing area.
The only disappointment was that the on site bar didn't do any type of food apart from Pot Noodles. Would definitely return if in area again

Just back from Cairnsmill Park, where we stayed overnight to try our new 3 man tent. Staff where friendly and gave good directions to our tent pitch. We requested a hook up which only cost us £2. Our tent pitch was right next to lovely spacious clean toilets and separate shower rooms. A dish washing room was also on site with 2 sinks, only problem was the hot water tap which you had to constantly press for the water.
We took our portable tv an got a great reception.
We didn't visit the pool or club house by all and all we were very impressed with this site and would recommend it and am sure we will definitely be back.

We had planned a couple of nights stay here on our way up to Aveimore but it ended up being 4 nights due to car problems.
The site was really hard to find and we saw no signs for it at all and only found it in the end after asking at another site who kindly gave us directions.
Once we arrived we were directed to our pitch, which was a very large hard standing with plenty of room for caravan, awning and car. The site has a pool but we were informed that as it was low season we would have to ask if we wanted it opening up for us. There is also a bar and games room on site.
The toilet block was clean and the 2 showers were more like giant wet rooms than showers, which was lovely.
There is a shop on site, which has quite a good range of goods. In St Andrews there are plenty of shops, restaurants and bars. We visited the famous St Andrews Golf Course as my husband is a bit of a golf fan, the lovely beach, castle and cathedral.
Morrison’s is 5 mins down the road for provisions and fuel which is really handy.

Visited this site when we where campers, then with a trailer tent and now with a touring caravan. Each time has been brilliant. The hard standing pitches are really big, plenty room for van, awning and car. Really well spaced out not far from the EHU and water tap. On these hard standings you need really good rock pegs and I would suggest longer than six inches, plastic pegs or wire pegs are no good.
The shop is well stocked and has daily papers and fresh rolls. Staff are very friendly and very helpful. Nice pint of Bellhaven best in the bar. Once the new bigger pool is opened I would imagine this site will become even more popular.
The toilet block was warm and modern with nice hot showers. The wife had a moan about the young lassies hogging all the sinks and mirrors but girls will be girls.
Morrisons supermarket is a 10 minute stroll, so no problem with fresh provision. It also has a filling station so cheap(er) petrol/diesel on the door step.
St Andrews is a further 20 walk. Too much to talk about in St Andrews best to visit their web site. It has good pubs and restaurants catering for all tastes.
Bus to St Andrews passed the entrance on the hour and is 10 past the hour coming back.
The security at site is very good. It has a car registration barrier. Drive up wait and the barrier opens, brilliant.
Have not commented on the child friendliness as we had no rug rats with us, but the kids running round seemed to be enjoying themselves very much.
Will not be long before we are back, just hope the is the same as it was for this visit.
Brilliant.
The site is just off a busy road but the tall trees do a good job of stopping most of the road noise.
