Date of Visit: August 2008 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: H 55 6 reviews from this member

 We visited after 2 days heavy rain and the site was rather wet despite the sun being out. Camping was in a clearing in the forest and so didn't dry well. Small area for tents with separate car park adjacent so everything had to be carried a short distance to the pitch. Small shower block which was fairly new. Block was really warm, allowing people to dry their wet clothes. Different feel to most sites we have been to; large reception building which was holding a wedding - I had to pass the bride and groom waiting to make their big entrance as I went to book in. Several smaller areas spread around the forest, most areas were for caravans.

2 minute drive into Linlithgow which has plenty of shops, bars and restaurants (but it is down a huge hill so we weren't willing to cycle it!) 


Date of Visit: June 2008 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: TimndFlick 10 reviews from this member

 In our 35 plus years of camping and caravanning, this ranks as the worst site we have ever had the misfortune to stay at. We really do not like leaving a less than glowing report. On arrival, during advertised opening hours with a prebooked pitch and an arrival time, reception was deserted. After 10 minutes waiting we decided to ask in the restaurant, they were totally unhelpful and told us to 'go away and come back in half and hour'. We pointed out the car and caravan parked and asked her where we should go with that for half an hour, she turned her back and disappeared never to be seen again.

We took the opportunity to walk round the site, even though we had been driving for over 8 hours. The pitches are laid out in a pattern like petals. Well one area was occupied by what looked like Travellers , one area was near derelict with weeds 5ft high, one area seemed to be reserved for the on site warden (who apparently worked 9-5 at the saw mill). This left two areas for caravans, the hardstandings were small and cramped. On our return to reception we were kept waiting a further 15 minutes, to be booked in by an ill informed young lady. The site rules were thrown on the desk in front of us and her exact phrase was 'Read these now' and we also were told if we put up an awning we will be told to take it down. This was a total load of nonsense as we had paid in advance for hardstanding and awning was included. When we finally managed to pitch, we got chatting to the other visitors, who all had similar stories to tell.

Finally we had a real problem getting our fiver deposit for the hook-up back, reception deserted again. To be constructive, this site needs Management. The staff are untrained and surly, the warden needs to be on site during the day, the place needs a good clean up.

The facilities were of good standard, unfortunately totally let down by a lack of management, leaving junior staff to handle situations outside their competence without any supervision.

 Shhhh! This might be one of the best kept secrets in Central Scotland! Just home from a brilliant weekend stay. The hardstanding pitches are huge (van, awning and car in front fits easily), with planting between each van. If you are using an awning you will need strong pegs. 16A EHU point box (£5 deposit on key) is positioned between two so you need a 25m long cable if you are on the right, or you will be tripping over the cable all weekend! The pitch areas are cut-outs in the forest (100ft pines) with 6-8 vans in each area.

Toilet block is immaculate and warm, each shower cubicle is actually an individual bathroom! Very quiet site. A huge play park that the kids loved is 500 yards walk through the forest, walks through the deer farm, and fish farm are all free, and there is miles of road for cycling and walking through the park. Activities, fishing etc are all available at extra cost. Did not use the restaurant, but looked very good, and prices look reasonable at about £15-£20 for 3 courses.

The Activity centre/deer farm shop sells post cards, toys etc and Venison from the farm, but no bread milk papers etc. Tesco is only 10 mins drive away in Linlithgow.

The road from Linlighgow (Preston Road) is very steep and winding, I would not like to tow up that way, find an alternative route.It is worth it! B8046 and farm roads are fine if approaching from the East.

This is a very quiet site that we will go to again and again!

 Beautiful woodland site , all caravan pitches are well laid out in a 6 petal style design giving ample room for any size of caravan and awning  .
 
Toilet Facilities are among the best I have seen very modern and well maintained .
 
Loads of nature style woodland walks / cycle tracks etc , there is also a fishery and deer farm nearby .
 
5 star Restaurant at entrance to site , and a couple of miles from the local shops in Linlithgow .
 
Highly recommended for the walkers , cyclists and people who like a quiet peaceful site .

 A very quiet site in the forest. Toilet blocks clean and warm with plenty of hot water.There is no on site shop, or ice pack exchange facilities, and although the food in the restaurant was ok, the service left a lot to be desired! You cannot park your car next to your tent here, although this makes for a nicer environment, and the car park is very close. A good site for those wanting to escape, and all the children I saw on this site seemed to be having a great time playing in the trees. There is a very big play park  nearby which is a 5 mins walk through the trees too.

Date of Visit: March 2007 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Sadgitcaravanner 5 reviews from this member

 Just got back from an excellent weekend. This is a good campsite if you enjoy peace and quiet and the great outdoors with lovely woodland walks. Only a short drive from lovely Linlithgow where you can find all the usual shops. Hardstanding pitches were large enough for a big twin axle and allowed room for an awning too. Lots of shade due to tall trees all round. Toilets and showers were modern and spotless clean (pity they did not have a mop or a squeegy handy to clean up after yourself right enough). 1/2 bath was a boom for kids. Great for active kids with a huge play area in Country Park. Take your bike along as loads of safe cycling tracks. We had a meal in the Restaurant and its was fairly priced with friendly and fast service and quality food. Near to Livingstons McArthur Glen outlet for some designer shopping too if the weather turns nasty. Deep see world was good for a visit and not too far to drive. This site gets my recommendation.

Reviewer: Find laters 5 reviews from this member

 This is a great site. The grandchildren loved it as there is a big adventure play park nearby. The toilet and showers are the best of any park we have stayed at. Each individual washroom has a shower, wash basin and toilet. I took the two boys in with me and their was plenty of room for us all to get showered and dressed. The restaurant on the site was busy and looked very good but we did not visit it on this occasion. We will certainly be back.

 Secluded and well maintained this is a fantastic site for those who like outdoor activities but don’t like crowds. The facilities are clean warm and looked after, and the site is laid out to ensure privacy (for the caravans at least!).

The forest park is the main reason to visit with trails and walks, a deer and a trout farm, and plenty of space to cut loose.

Linlithgow is a nice enough little town with sufficient shops and places to visit including the palace – the ex royal seat of Scotland.

Would definitely recommend to a friend.

An excellent site. The shower / toilet / laundry facilities are brilliant and the park is lovely and very peaceful. There are many good walks and the staff are very friendly. Will be a regular visitor! 


Reviewer: Jamie

 July 2003
Very nice forested park, plenty of walking trails and a real good resterant. The tenting field was on a slight slope. A real good family area, however not the best place if you're hoping for peace and quiet away from the sounds of playful children. The on-sight facilities are deffinatly well kept.
