Why stay here ...

Greenpark CL is a quiet, rural site set in a peaceful location on Royal Deeside, a favourite haunt of Royalty. The pitches are all hard standing, of a generous size and each serviced with 16 amp electricity, mains water tap and waste water disposal.  Heated toilet and shower facilities are also available. Greenpark is an eco-friendly site and members must only use green toilet fluid when emptying cassettes.

Adults/children/pets are all welcome. Across the road from the site we have provided a 2 mile circular walk around the adjoining farmland and woodlands to help you enjoy the wildlife.

The site is approximately 2 miles from the town of Banchory, the gateway to the Dee Valley. The surrounding area has many delights to offer. It provides an excellent base from which to explore castles, mountains and coastlines, all within an hour's drive. A public bus service provided by Stagecoach can be accessed nearby.

There are many activities within easy reach to provide both a relaxing or an active day out - fishing on the River Dee or at the Raemoir Trout Fishery, golfing, walking, mountain biking, a visit to Banchory Museum, Woodend Arts Centre, Balmoral Castle or Lochnagar Distillery are only some of the possibilities. Aberdeenshire is known for its splendid local produce, and Banchory and the surrounding area has a variety of award winning restaurants and many tea rooms. A wide range of supermarkets, garden centres, independent and specialist shops can be found in the Town Centre and at Milton of Crathes, specialising in crafts, galleries, clothing, homewares and gifts.

Good site!

Greenpark
We only stayed one night but pitch was level and ehu and water available. The caravan club toilet and shower clean and tidy. Owners very helpful- emailed them a couple of questions and they replied immediately. Arrived in dark and found the old cl site no problem, David turned up next morning to collect payment and have a chat - very pleasant.

Winter stay

Greenpark
Stayed at this site as snow forecast. Really lovely site and would definitely stay again if in the area. The only negative was that the heating was not on in the toilet/showers.

A little gem

Greenpark
Please follow the site directions from the website, it just makes it easier than the alternative route!! Wow the pitches are huge and all on hardstanding, you effectively have a serviced pitch for a steal of a price. You even have your own toilet and shower facility. The site is so convenient for indulging in your "Royalty" fix, with Balmoral, Ballater and the Cairngorm National Park all within easy driving distance. The scenery around is stunning, with something for everyone. David is always on hand for a friendly chat and to give advice on the local area. One word of warning, the Fish & Chips from The Cowshed are absolutely fab and you may have to indulge more than the once!! LOL

Lovely site and tranquil setting

Greenpark
Found the site as it is easy to be seen from the main road, but after walking up to house found out we could choose our pitch and someone would be along later. Spent a lovely four nights on this site and David came to see us on our last night. The toilet, shower and site was very clean. Lovely walks around for dog walking or just an evening wander. Site was quiet even with the main road just a stones throw away! Close proximity to many attractions such as Crathes Castle which is NT was interesting with many small stores to pop in and see the art and crafts on sale, the Wood Turning one was partially interesting to us both! Keiths Tower which was a bit hard to find but eventually we parked beside the loch that had paddle borders on and we sat and enjoyed our picnic while watching them. We also found the Footbridge over River Feugh which had amazing scenic views and was within a few minutes drive from the site too! There are a few grocery stores very close to the site in Banchory Tesco, Morrissions and Co op which is in town centre along with many other shops and parking prices very reasonable. Overall we loved the site and found David very easy to chat to, only a couple of hours drive from us so we will defiantly be back!

Lovely peaceful location

Greenpark
A lovely place to stay, called last minute and place was full however we were informed if we wanted we could stay in the drive of one of the unoccupied lodges. The owner couldn't have been more accommodating and welcoming. Lovely clean and tidy facilities. Peaceful site with a great outlook and well maintained. We definitely will be back.
