 Been here a few times now, toilets and washing up area really good, spacious and clean. Hook ups available.
Quite a large site, recommended for families. Adults only head up to the top end of the site quieter there even though the road is nearby you do not really hear any of the traffic.
Downside the food in the lounge is all microwaved and rather disgusting, microwaving steak pie and chips not a good idea,absolutely awful, was supposed to be home made. Food has certainly went down hill since our last visit. Bar staff not so helpful,staff in the shop were excellent. Pitlochry really nice all the shops staff were really nice and friendly. You can go for a snack or a really nice meal excellent.
Overall a really nice site but could do with a bit of a spruce particularly the buildings around the lounge area.

Turned up for a night in july, as was driving a long distance, just my 2 year old and me and a dog.
It cost us £17 just for a night. Expensive in my opinion for a small 2 man tent for one night. There is a good well stocked shop at reasonably prices, and I believe a restaurant, but I didn't use this.
The toilets were pretty mucky though it has been pouring with rain.

Stayed for one night on way back from holiday in Outer Hebrides. This is quite a large site and one big field is for tents. We checked in OK and got a pitch with no problem although it was busy. I have to admit this is not our kind of site as it is primarily for people with children which we aren't so we did not use the pool or bar etc. To that end we found it quite expensive at £18.00 for small tent, 2 people and a car opposed to £9.00 for the site of Portree, but obviously you are paying for the maintenance of the site.
I thought it might be noisy at night but it wasn't, the midnight curfew worked well, most people were up early but that suited us. The showers are free but the water was really too hot and couldn't be adjusted. I thought the shower and toilet block was well kept and clean.
Pitlochry is a nice town although always busy, we eat at the Indian resturant and had the best dhansak I have ever eaten! Quite expensive but good food. However the site is about 2 miles out of town so not too easy to walk especially with young children.
Would recommend the site for families or groups but not couples looking for a quiet stay.

First time to this campsite and the area. Site quite busy when we arrived on the Friday night but managed to find a plot no problem. Stayed for eight nights Partner and son took advantage of the many golf courses nearby. Toilet/Shower block on the whole clean, hot water was a bit of a problem at the weekend but midweek was fine. Staff very helpful and friendly. Pool area was a lovely treat and was never too busy due to the fact that you had to book. Lovely walk from the site into Pitlochry (if you go the right way). On the whole had a great week and have booked to go again in August.

Have visited this site a number of times over the years and enjoyed it very much until my last visit at the May bank holiday.
This is the first time we have stayed since the park layout has been reorganised and there are less tent pitches.
We pitched near the tent field and the top toilet blocks.
My complaint is that I feel the park security are very heavy handed. My son was told off for playing with his frisbee in a deserted area in the park. My daughter who was in a tent next to us was told to turn off the light on her mobile as it was after 12 midnight. Although we had no music on at night the security did not want us talking at all after this time and hung around our unit to make sure that we were not talking at all.
If you go on holiday and like to stay up a little later than you would at home then this site is not for you. It's lights out and straight to bed on the stroke of midnight!
Having said this the site and the facilities are good, well kept and clean.

Just come back from 7 fantastic days here. We were in a party of nine in three tents, we were very lucky to get pitches together as they have reduced the number of pitches for tents. Only two tents needed electric, we were on a slight incline but nothing serious.
The sites facilities were fantastic hot water all the time, clean shower and toilet blocks.
The swimming pool has to be booked in advance for a small charge, most of the time your normally the only ones in there which is good. The sauna and steam room are kept clean and the pool side and changing rooms are cleaned after every session. The shop had the esentials but there was a Co-Op in the village which had everything you needed.
The food in the bar was hot and very enjoyable, all the staff were very helpful and polite all the time.
There is plenty to do in the surrounding area from walks by the river to the lovely village of Pitlochry where you can see the fish ladder. Edradour Distillery, Blair Atholl Castle and the Highland Games. There is so much more to say but it will take forever. I would recommend this site to anyone.
We are going back again next year and cant wait.

Just returned from our first trip of the year which we spent at Faskally having had a fantastic time there last year. I'm updating my review from last year, because although much has remained exactly the same, we did notice that the second tent field near the upper toilet blocks has now been given over to hardstanding pitches for caravans. I realise it's probably more profitable for them to do that, but if you are planning to camp with a tent there in future it might be a good idea to book well in advance as I imagine the remaining tent field will be full in no time at all during high season!

We were back to Faskally for the first time in over 10 years for our first camping expedition with the children and our new huge Killington 900 tent.
Site fees include electric hook up whether you want it or not (being unused to such mod-cons we didn't take it).
New toilet blocks added since we were last there which were fairly clean despite it being pretty busy. Plenty outdoor sinks for doing the dishes but found the water temperature temperamental sometimes freezing - no use for our greasy frying pan. Other times was really hot. So we managed just fine.
Children's play area was great but a bit muddy due to the recent weather. (Never had to look into this type of thing on campsites before).
Great wee bar and restaurant (didn't eat there but it looked good) on site. Booked the swimming on the Sunday morning - only us and a couple of other families there so that was great. Lovely facilities / sauna / steamroom.
A few noisy people in the night having a great time but to be honest it didn't disturb me so I wasn't too bothered.
Nice walks along the river, although we drove to Killiecrankie we have in the past walked it there and back. Blair Atholl nice for a day out and Pitlochry good for the co-op, shops and eating out recommend The Old Mill for drinks or food.
Weather was great which made it all the better.
Criticisms - the on site shop could do with more / better stock but you can get the essentials which I suppose is all you need. We found it better to go to Pitlochry for our food shopping and especially enjoyed the butchers sausages and burgers on our bbq.

We stayed in Faskally over the May bank holiday weekend when it was very busy. It is a large site with lots of statics. We had a nice pitch with plenty of space and it was pretty quiet where we were. The views and surrounding countryside were beautiful.
There was litter around the park, the toilets and showers were not that clean, it is not very nice having a shower with othere peoples hair and dirt all over the shower tray, also the showers were not that hot.

We visited Faskally during the second week of the Easter holidays. We found a pitch on the field above the play park field and thought it was fairly level. Although quite busy at this time of year, we had no problems with noise or any unruliness.
We had to book in at the shop as the reception was closed and had to stand in a queue of people getting their shopping, but to be fair, when we were served, we were given all the attention we required and had no problems with check in on that account.
The site has a good sized shop but we chose to buy our main food shopping from the Co-op in Pitlochry; however it was invaluable for treats, morning papers and rolls – it also sells some alcohol and the usual camping / caravanning stuff.
The site also has a bar/restaurant which was decent enough and the food was fine and an indoor games room with pool tables – though kids were not impressed with the “amusement” area. An indoor swimming pool with spa/steam room and sauna adjoins the bar complex – we had to pre-book sessions – but found that the pool wasn’t crowded.
Pitlochry is an excellent place to visit. There are a host of outdoor activities in the area and some very good shops in Pitlochry, itself. We had fantastic fish and chips from the “chipper” beside the Co-op. A beautiful, winding forest walk from the park leads to Pitlochry and would probably take about 30-40 minutes in one direction.
My main complaint, which was a big problem, is that we found the showers very unpredictable. One day I had to abandon my shower as quite literally I was standing underneath trying to catch the drips. There were occasions when the water was either too hot or too cold, (no control) and I would have liked a mop to clean the muddy cubicle.
Finally, the chemical point to empty the chemical toilet is behind the shop at the entrance to the park and was an uncomfortable hike from our caravan – I would suggest a trolley or some other means of transporting your loo. On the whole, I thought the park was a good choice and we had a fantastic time. I would visit again, despite the showers.

We stayed at this site over the Easter Weekend Fri-Mon. It is a nice site with a dedicated tent field all with access to ehu. It is also a very big site and was very busy.
Pitlochry is nice wee town, some nice places to visit for free, Edradour distillery, The Fish Ladder & Dam (Interesting anytime but especially in Sept the Salmon season) the Black Spout Waterfall. Nice walk along river to Killecrankie see the 'Soldiers Leap' and a visit to the visitor centre for a cuppa before the walk back.
There are numerous places for eating out.
There were a couple of minor issues. If going in a group even if you book there is no guarantee of a pitch next to one another it is 1st come 1st served and some people were quite selfish with regards pitching despite the rules so were actually taking up more than 1 pitch.
Tent field is in layers on a slope and we were at bottom layer unfortunately because a slope this was also quite muddy.
Showers, only 1 person in our party had a shower because he nearly ended up with hypothermia, rest made do with a quick wash at the sink and a top and tail at the tent, baby wipes are a wonderful invention!
This aside still a nice site and would vist again.

Good site, we stayed Easter 2009 Thurs through Saturday. Mixed group of teenagers kept us awake till midnight the Thursday, and the site was very busy Saturday, but earplugs helped get us to sleep.
Swimming pool was great, only £2 adult and our kids were 3 and under so went free.
Great shop, but didn't open until 9am so get plenty milk / bread the night before.
Pitch had a noticeable slope, but we just slept facing uphill and had no problems.
Perth Swimming pool, and active kids centre within 20-30mins back down the A9 and well worth a visit.
Lots of great walks in around Pitlochry, well worth doing a loop across the dam and back across the 'shoogly bridge'.
Can recommend the Old Mill Inn for food.

Liked the site very much - has lovely walks from it - at this time of year would have liked a heated toilet block though! Also seemed a bit weird having to go right back to the reception area to empty the chemical loo (needed to drive to empty it as I was unable to carry it that far)
We were told to pitch anywhere as it wasn't busy - even told to pitch on the road in the tent bit as the ground was very swampy and quite a few motorhomes were having problems getting off the grass. All in all a nice site.

Faskally, Pitlochry. Good site with good clean toilet facilities although showers were a bit cold in the mornings. Surrounding area great for walking, fishing with beautiful scenery. Campsite very clean and great to have warden policing campsite at midnight asking for noise to stop to allow everyone a good nights sleep.
Only slight complaint would be no availability coffee / small snack facilities at leisure area for spectators in mornings / afternoons, although at busier times of season this has been previously available. Leisure complex good incorporating small swimming pool jaccuzzi and steam room, small arcade games room for youngsters and two pool tables.
Pitlochry itself, an idyllic scottish town, various lovely eating establishments especially the Mill Inn, free tours at Edradour distillery worthwhile. Supermarket in town for grocery shopping. We will be back, again and again.

Have to say this site is perfect for families who are looking for somewhere, beautiful, clean and quiet but with plenty around to do for all the family!
The site itself is quite large and roomy, you are not all herded in and cramped. There is excellent facilities ie toilets, showers, camp shop, pub, restaurant, games room and indoor swimming pool.
The staff are friendly and helpful and ensure you have an enjoyable stay. So much so that a party were removed from the campsite because of disturbing other campers with loud music which continued into the early hours! they do not allow single sex parties either so that ensures no wild hen or stag nights lol! they take no nonsense when it comes to disturbing other campers but do let you enjoy yourself round the tent at night!
Lastly the scenery surrounding you in the campsite is awesome, I stood in utter disbelief at how beautiful the location was!
Going back in April for another weeks holiday with the kids who loved it too!
