Liked: So i never actually made it to the camp site through pure bad luck first i almost ran out if petrol and then just as we were 20mins away i burst my tire. Theough out the journey i informed the owner we were delayed. The reason i am Giving a high rating is because of how kind and helpful owner was. She told us where to pitch and get breakfast etc. she even text later on to mKe sure we had I, which we hadnt sad i dis not make it as im sirs the site would have been amazing

Liked: Wat een geweldige camping!!!!!! De kinderen hebben genoten, dieren op de camping, fietsen zo mee te nemen, een kleine speeltuin, kabelbaan, vuurtje stoken. Sanitair is basic maar schoon. Medewerkers zijn super lief. Echt een aanrader

Liked: Location is amazing with 360° views, and so peaceful. Was very quiet during our 3 night stay. Owners welcoming and approachable. Very dog/child friendly lots of little activities dotted about for the kids and plenty of space for the dogs to have a run around. Wild camping vibes with all the facilities you need, including the hottest showers. Lovely area to explore and good site to base yourself on for exploring the cairngorms. Would definitely return.

Liked: Location was amazing 👏
Disliked: Got stuck on the pitch as ground too soft. Lovely owner helped us out. Gave us a hard pitch but with view of a garage and disused caravans. Facilities were terrible.

From the manager: Hi yes they got stuck and after getting them unstuck we allowed them to park down beside the farm area as the weather was atrocious as for the toilets they are functional and clean we can't account for the weather and are always trying to improve.
