Lovely new CL
A really lovely new high quality CL, spacious, clean, quiet, and very well set up with great wifi. Set in open farmland with lovely views, a great base for exploring Aberdeenshire and only a couple of miles from the A96 so easy to get to. Close to Inverurie... Show more

Very well managed site
This is a great CL, very professional set up and wellmanaged. High quality EHU and water facilities on each pitch. Immaculate waste facilities. Do not be put off by lack of hard standing, this CL is excellent. Very accommodating and helpful hosts.

Perfect site
Lovely peaceful site with good amenities - chemical waste disposal and each pitch has its own fresh water and electric hook up. Grassy site, a wee bit sloping but we were able to get fairly level. Lovely friendly owner and nice village. Would thourally recommend.
