Date of Visit: October 2011 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Defector 1 review from this member

 Stayed for the full season with our caravan this year, after staying for a month last year.

The site ticks all the boxes for us, spotless toilets checked at least four times a day, good playpark for the kids, safe secure site, reasonable price.

Could go on forever and probably still miss out things. Early this year our new awning took quite a beating and the warden phoned us at home to let us know about the damage.

I left work and went up to the site and found that the wardens had taken down the awning and packed it safely in the office.

In thirty years caravanning I have never had service to match the wardens at at Pine trees.

They are the icing on the cake for me, and I have booked another year knowing that I will be well looked after by them in 2012.

Reviewer: Paulzie 10 reviews from this member

 An example of what a campsite should be like.

Friendly welcome to a professional looking reception that had lots of local information, maps etc on the surrounding area. Seemed to be a few staff on site most of the days and were always helpful and cheery.

Had a good choice of pitches and camped near the river. Patches of the ground were a bit soggy but it had been raining hard recently and we were able to find dry spots.

Toilet block was very modern with decent hot showers, kitchen and had a vending machine – great for late night snaks.

Site has free wifi which was great with good coverage.

Site is located just of the main road and is on the edge of Tyndrum village. The main attraction on the village is the Green Welly shop which has a good selection of food, outdoor kit and fuel. Village also has a pub and a very good chippy – The Real Food Café.

Site has great road links to Oban and Glen Coe so a very good base for a holiday.

Reviewer: Afortunado 13 reviews from this member

 I stayed here for one night (tent/motorbike)the site is spotless and well maintained. There are places to eat and drink very close to the site. Will definitely keep this site in mind for the future. Midges can be problematic from july to September but it can be useful to use nivea skin so soft, sorry guys but it keeps the midges at bay. Hot water is plentiful and there is a dish washing area at the toilet block. The site gates are locked from 11pm until 8am to cut down on noise and increase security

For bikers the roads around here are brilliant as long as you take care overtaking, speed cameras are minimal but there are unmarked cars and bikes around.

Reviewer: Morticiaskeeper 17 reviews from this member

 Stopped here for an overnight rest on our way north. Check in was easy and we soon had our two small tents on good pitches.

Tyndrum itself is more of a stopping off village rather than a destination, the main attraction being The Green Welly, a petrol station that's grown into a cafe and tourist shop.

The site is adjacent to the west highland way and therefore caters very well for backpackers. The Microwave oven and Coffee machine were very welcoming.

All facilities were security coded, we were given a slip of paper with the door code and the free wifi password.

All in all, a very good site, very clean and well laid out, we will use it again for overnight stops.

The only criticisms I have are the lights around the site, a bit too bright at night, and the Radio 1 playing in the toilets at all hours.

Reviewer: Carole95 7 reviews from this member

 Visited this site in August with my husband and 2 kids aged 9 and 12 & the dog we had a tent with electric hook up. The pitches size was terrific and well looked after. The only thing I would say is the path alongside the tents is of stone, so if you where sleeping and people were walking you would hear them.

The people who looked after the park where every helpful and friendly. The site was terrific and very clean. Though there wasn't a shop on site it did sell small things such as ice creams etc. Key entry into the toilets which was very clean and the showers was amazing (though younger kids might not like to power of the showers), hot and cold drinks machine in the laundry room. The washing area for the dishes was also keep clean.

There was a small play park which kept the kids amused, nearest shop is in Tyndrum not far from the site but was quite expensive. The nearest Morrisons is Fort William and Tesco is Oban.

Would definitely recommend this site and return but only for a long weekend due to already having done the site seeing around the place.

Reviewer: Janet Martin 6 reviews from this member

 Stayed on this site for 5 days in a tent without electrical hookup. I cannot praise the people who run this site enough.

It was spotless; beautifully clean toilet and shower block (never had to queue), laundry room with microwave and hot drinks machine, manicured and level tent pitches and enforcement of noise rules after 11pm for the consideration of other campers.

Nothing was too much trouble for the lady at reception who was very friendly and helpful.

The site is in a great position for exploring the Scottish Highlands (the West Highland Way path runs along the back of the site) and is near to 2 train stations if you fancy a train ride to Fort William or Oban.

The only downside is that Tyndrum itself is not particularly picturesque. It is situated on the main road and only has one pub/bar which is a bit tacky and run down.

Midges about, but really not a problem (though I did use Avon SSS). Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

Reviewer: Mojo70 3 reviews from this member

 First time visiting this site and all down to the reviews on here and it was great

Friendly welcome on arrival, toilets spotless with really powerful showers (helps wake you up in the morning)

Our pitch was just behind the toilet block on a double pitch due to tent size and was ideal for the kids as they could go themselves

Also there is a free hairdryer in the toilets (so no need for a pocket of 20p pieces)

Small playpark that kept the kids amused

Site also has free wifi that seemed to cover the site pretty well

There is a small footbridge to the side of the reception that takes you on a woodland walk (if you go left over the bridge and through the trees it joins onto the west highland way)

This is a site that I will use again great price £20. 50 a night for a large tent with hook up and each pitch has it's own water tap

Reviewer: Margaret299 4 reviews from this member

 This was our second visit to this site. It is first class. The access is easy. The facilities are good and all beautifully kept. The fully serviced pitches are a real bonus. The wardens are efficient, friendly and helpful. Friends came to stay for a night in a tent and they too were very impressed.

The situation is great for visiting the lovely area towards Oban and we also spent a day going to Callendar.

The village has the outstanding Green Welly Stop and a very good Chip Shop.

I highly recommend a visit to this site and can't wait to return.

Reviewer: Kevinmacdonald 3 reviews from this member

 We have stayed here 3 times in total, twice in our tent, and once in one of the cabins. We've found the staff to be very helpful and friendly, with the exception of one of the male wardens. The site is spotlessly clean and well maintained. Toilets and showers are fresh and cleaned daily. It is very quiet, despite the roadside location and is about 15 meters off the West Highland Way.

This site is a little more expensive than others we have visited, but you get what you pay for.

The cabins are nice. Better looking from the outside than the inside. A kettle, heater and beds are provided but no linens. Cheaply furnished, but they serve their purpose.

The site also has WiFi, which is a nice touch if your route planning in the middle of nowhere and no service on your phone.

Reviewer: Dot P 792 reviews from this member

 In a word Fantastic.

This site is absolutely top class. After 4 weeks touring we rate this in the top 2 sites in Scotland we have stayed on.

Big hardstanding pitches, plenty of room between you and the next pitch. Well drained pitches as on gravel but grass between for landscaping.

Lovely new toilets / showers and a laundry. Washing up area and drinks machines.

Free Wifi which works really well. Super friendly and helpful owners.

The Green Well Stop, Paddy's Bar and a local Supermarket all within 10-15 minutes walk.

We didn't find the road noise intrusive at all.

In all honestly there isn't a negative for this site - you are well placed for touring or just as a stopover on the way to or from the islands.

A wonderful site that we will be using again and again.

Reviewer: ALAN K MCKIRDY 2 reviews from this member

 I stayed here with family and friends for 2 nights and all I can say is a huge thank you to the owners. The site is very well kept and maintained with the showers and sinks very clean, the grounds very tidy and the bins emptied daily.

The owners are very friendly and made us feel really welcome. We used tents with electric hook ups and the pitches were well drained and very even. No noise after 11pm suited us fine and was welcome after a day spent enjoying the fresh air, the great walks and running after kids all day.

The kids have a great playpark and lots of space to run around.

Located within a few minutes walk of shops it's a great location.

Popular with walkers it sits right on the WHW.

I will be back this year and for years to come, looking forward to my next visit already.

Only (very) slight downside is the site is located next to the main road but the trees shelter you from most of the noise and at night the traffic is very minimal.

Reviewer: Mrscairnnut 58 reviews from this member

 What a shame this site is on the side of the A82, had it not been for the noise from the road, this site would tick all our boxes. The facilities are very nice, lovely and warm. The owners were friendly and obviously take great pride in their site. The pitches were large,and very neat and tidy with hardstandings and grass between them. The surrounding countryside is beautiful.

The site is alongside a small river with lovely walks up and over the moors. Just a five minute along the road and you have a good cafe, we had haddock and chips and it is the best fish I have had for years. The site has midge machines which help to reduce the number of bugs; not such a problem in April, only managed one bite in a week! If you want total peace and tranquillity, bear in mind the traffic noise at this site. Apart from that, highly recommended. The site also offers hikers huts, wooden 'tents', They seem like a good idea at around £35 per night. We would stop here again.

Reviewer: Danicraig 1 review from this member

 We stayed here for two nights whilst walking the WHW and can not praise this site enough. We hired the hikers huts which are immaculatley clean and very comfortable. The owners and wardens are very friendly and nothing's too much trouble for them.

The showers and toilets are spotless and are free to use including free hairdrier's. There is a laundry and dishwasing area which again is very clean. The whole site is very well looked after with ample bin's and even free dog waste bags dotted around just in case your best friend has an accident on site.

There is a main road beside the site but we never noticed any traffic noise. Tyndrum is a busy little village with tourists stopping at the services on their way towards Oban and the Western Isles. There's a pub that allows dog's and also serves good food. There is a small local shop but it is best to be prepared here as we struggled to get the basics for a BBQ and ended up in the pub for a delicous meal.

This site was a fantastic find and I can't wait to return.

Reviewer: Lussman1 1 review from this member

 Stopped over for one night en route to Skye. This is most certainly one of the best run sites I have visited,partner and I were sorry that we didn't have time to extend our stay,we had to be in Skye the following day.Site and facilities are spotless and if anything better than caravan club standards.

Washroom spotless and well heated,well lit and central for all pitches. Even a microwave available in laundry room.Each pitch has water and tv also available but has to be booked in advance. Main Oban, Glasgow Road passes the site but noise not a problem. This is a great site to break your journey if heading north or to Oban etc.

Pub and food only 5 minute walk from the site.

Reviewer: Jed1609 3 reviews from this member

 we booked it and previously informed the warden that we would be arriving late. They were extremely helpful about it and instructed on where was best to pitch our tent when we arrived, albeit in the dark. We eventually arrived in the middle of the night after a long journey and pitched our tent and the next morning woke up to some of the most spectacular scenery in the highlands of Scotland.

You must stay at this site it is one of the best in the highlands.

It is ideal for West Highland Way walkers and also tourist travelling the highlands, tyndrm has everything you would expect from a small town, with hotels, and shops, and an excellent chippy, which is award winning. The site is also local to rail links so you don't need a car. Furthermore the site itself is newly refurbished and the pitching facilities are excellent the best.

The toilet and washing facilities are excellent too, the showers are hot all the time and the hair dryers are efficient. I would say that the facilities are clean and well cared for.

For West Highland Way'ers I would say that there is a instant coffee machine, including soup and hot chocolate, a microwave and a small kitchen area inside the main facilities so that you can prepare you food in the dry.

So all in all the owners have thought of everything with this site, and there are plenty of walks at the back of site along the river.

These comments come from an experienced West Highland Way'er and also a general tourist camper. Long may this camp site thrive. The only down side to this camp site is that it closes in November and doesn't open until march, and I would like to visit the area in the winter also.
