Camping Pod - Glamping Pods (Dog Friendly)Jul 2024

Got a very last minute booking, mid week for a glamping pod at this site. The pod was lovely and very clean. It was basic but it had what we needed. The toilets and showers onsite were very clean, shower pressure wasn't great but we coped. apparently the men's were better than the ladies. The campsite is right on the beach which the kids loved. We booked watersports through Aberdeenshire sailing trust, their instructor Matthew was great. The sailing club is right next door to the campsite and the bay is lovely and calm. It was perfect for learning a new watersport. The kids also did some swimming in the bay. The campsite had a laundry room and a wee shop with just sweets and juice and things. Aldi only a 20 minute walk away for bigger things. It is just a wee campsite, but well run, clean and a happy place to be. The kids didn't want to leave.

VW-Type Campervan - Hardstanding Touring PitchesJul 2024

Overall, a nice place with a nice staff. The beach is really close and as long as you don't seek any wild sea, like on the coast of Aberdeen, you should be fine. If yes, then we recommend not leaving the swimming part of your trip here. Other than that, the camp was perfect.

Glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again. Many thanks, Rhona.

Motorhome - Hardstanding Touring PitchesJul 2024

We didn't find anything that wasn't good on the site. Staff made us welcome, pick your spot, a lovely introduction and welcome from the Warden, not far from town to walk into, a shop on the site, and plenty to occupy the children, Not forgetting the lovely ice cream from the shop.

So glad you enjoyed your stay, hope to see you again, Rhona.

VW-Type Campervan - Hardstanding Touring PitchesMay 2024

Amazing site, what a find! Will return. Great location, friendly helpful staff willing to go the extra mile. Have given the facilities 4 stars because they are tired but exceptionally clean. The wardens are clearly proud of their site and it shows. Close to a range of facilities, eateries pubs etc only a short walk into town. Highly recommend.

Single Axle Caravan - Hardstanding Touring PitchesSep 2023

Touring Scotland and stayed here for just 1 night. Drove past it twice as there are no signs, then ended up in the boating marina. Eventually got to our pitch which was basic but good enough. I'm glad I didn't have a large caravan because the entrance is very narrow. Staff are super friendly and amenities are ample. It was very well lit up at night, so blinds have to be fully closed if you want good sleep. The only thing that annoyed me was some moron was washing a motorhome and was plugged into the clean water tap at the Elsan Point, as I was emptying and rinsing my toilet cassette. It's an okay place, but I won't be staying there again.

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Hardstanding Touring PitchesAug 2023

Was a very nice welcome. Shop is well stocked, park is great, views were amazing. I think there should be a sign in toilet block for people to clean showers after using them and I was disappointed in the cleanliness of showers and there was no hand soap for 2 days.

Site's response

Glad you liked the park, Irene. My apologies again for the hand soap (I put it in the wrong way!) I will put up a sign see if this helps. Rhona.

Fantastic family holiday - a hidden gem!

Camping Pod - Glamping Pods (Dog Friendly)Aug 2023

Great little site. Has everything you need without being big. The bay is perfect for taking the dingy out or paddle boards. The boys loved crabbing every day. There's a play park on site too. Rhona runs the place, she's ace. Gave us suggested day trips almost every day. We went to many different bays, some fabulous castles and just had the best time. Supermarkets close by if you need to stock up, Peterhead town is a short walk and a fabulous fish and chip shop in the harbour. We stayed in a pod, it was so well-equipped that we didn't need any cooking stuff. You need your own bedding and towels but that's it. We took a fire pit and chilled on site most nights, soaking up the sea view. Kids loved it and so did we. Highly recommend.
