Date of Visit: August 2007 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Rbtmillar 5 reviews from this member

 Fantastic site! Lovely site which is very well maintained. The reception staff were very friendly. Pitches were a decent size, plenty of space for caravan, awning and the car without feeling too overlooked. The toilet block was immaculate, always clean and very modern. Only a short 10 minute walk to the centre of the village with plenty of pubs and eateries and loads of great outdoor stores.

 This is a lovely caravan park with clean toilets/showers. It is children friendly with a good play area and lots of open space. It doesn't have an on-site shop but there is one within a short walk and Callander is not far away. If you have kids you can park close to the play area but the site is big enough to get away from the noise if you want to. There are lots of nice walks around and residents can fish in the adjacent river. I would definitely recommend it and will return.

 This was our second visit to this lovely site, the facilities are spotless, great park for the kids (even a roof over the sandpit area) There is a clear policy for late departure, additional charge for 1pm, 3pm or 6pm departure no problem, unlike some who insist you leave before lunchtime!

The main problem we had was the rain, in the family area pitches facing the park all flooded. My jockey wheel was in 3 inches of water by morning! Most of the pitches along the row were the same.So that is why awnings are not allowed groundsheets!

The other problem was that the pitch was lower than the drains, so we had to use the wastemaster.I thought it was a fully serviced pitch! Some pitches need a 25m EHU cable, And do not take the pitch under the Big Oak tree.Drip.Drip.Drip, with the floodlights pointing in your skylight all night

Nevertheless, we will definitely be back it really is a good site .Pitch allocation is a case of

 Just spent a weekend at this site, but if I hadn`t booked and payedforitin advance I mighthaveturnedaround and went elsewhere asthe woman on reception wasenough to put you off. A friendly welcome costs nothing!.
On the good side though toilets and shower block were spotless as was the entire site, great site for kids with plenty room to run about and play and a separate partly covered play area. Callander is only minutes away with plenty shops and friendly pubs. Dont think I`ll be back to this site though as not prepared to contribute to receptionists wages again, there`s plenty more sites in the area 


Date of Visit: April 2005 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Dangerousbryman 14 reviews from this member

 A good location and pleasant surroundings but I was firstly put off by the person who I spoke to when trying to book. They gave me the distinct impression I was a nuisance and did not seem particularly keen to take my booking.
'No vans or Commercial Vehicles' etc is poor and discriminatory in this day and age, I know many very respectable people working in the construction business who own their own businesses and use their own company vans to tow a caravan.
I never quite felt good enough for this place, and although the park is well spaced out and nicely grassed it is close to the river and poorly drained. After one day of rain my jeep nearly got bogged in. No groundsheets of any description is roughing it a bit too, I had a couple of impromptu extra guests and had to put up my inner tent. I spent the whole weekend worrying if I would get into trouble for it, since it has a built in groundsheet.
The town is very near, a bit too tourist orientated for my liking, but good pubs, shops and restaurants. Just as well really, because there is nothing on the site.
Toilets clean and well cared for, and plenty of them.

Reviewer: Bernie9919 1 review from this member

 Lovely site, great for kids and facilities regularly cleaned.
Charging policy supports the "mean scots" stereotype with 50p an hour if you want to stay after 11.30 am and charging an awning rate for a small fibreglass pole awning. Better if they just charged 20 pound a night, it looks better and it is worth it.
Doesn't have a shop but a shop keeper comes in the morning in his car, will deliver to you van! papers, milk, rolls eggs (I got two double yolks in one box!) etc. Also shops two minutes along the road, and a couple of pubs. 10 minutes walk into Callander or bus stop close by. Would recommend.

 Toilet blocks & showers spotless.  The park is within walking distance to Callander. There is a separate area for playing ball games and the park is good, part of it is under a shelter.  You can also walk down to the river. You can arrive after 2pm but have to be off for 11.30am which is quite early . You can pay extra if you want to stay longer, which I thought was a bit much considering it already cost 18.00 a night.
There is not a shop on site but 2 mins walk there is a Spar shop on the right-hand side.  On a sat / sun morning there was a guy came around at 9am in a van / car selling newspapers, milk, butter, rolls.

Reviewer: Debsy 136 reviews from this member

 We liked this site - good facilities but no shop - you can walk to the spar easily. You can bike down the cycle track to Callender which has a great toy museum - the track is past the terminal moraine - cross the road and go back on yourself when you come to a layby a little further on - that's the track.

The site has lots of pine trees and the fishing is lovely - didn't catch anything though.

No tents allowed - all felt very steriley clean - they probably wouldn't have liked the fact that tents might have made it look untidy! (I don't think this I hasten to add!).

 Lovely well kept campsite, very welcoming . BUT no ground sheets of any kind allowed in awning,no vans allowed or commercial vehicles, which isn't so good as we use my husband 4x4 vehicle to tow with, but as we booked they let us on. No tents allowed , and no ball games after 9 pm not so good in the nice weather nice but very strict rules

Reviewer: Jamsie423 6 reviews from this member

 As a regular visitor to this site along with our 2 boxer dogs we have always found it an ideal location for all the local tourist attractions and places of interest. It is always busy during the summer season and booking is recommended. The site facilities are very good and the toilet/shower blocks are spotlessly clean with the children's play area positioned well away from the main pitched areas for those who don't have kids. Although the site site does not boast a shop for provisions etc. It is only a 5-10 minute walk away from Calander where their are plenty of stores available.

We have always found the people to be very friendly and regularly meet up with them and enjoy a drink or two. The dogs love the stretch of river which is situated at the bottom of the site which is never really fast flowing or deep during the summer months.

Well worth a visit.
