Lovely little gem of a site tucked away in a mainly urban area, surrounded by gardens and wildlife. Great for visiting the Kelpies and Falkirk Wheel and 5 min from the motorway, making it a great stop off en route to the Highlands. Really appreciated the candle lit lamps and fairy lights which made the evening dog walk feel very magical.
Amazing little site with a model railway!
I stayed here with the in-laws on my way to complete the NC500. First of all, a lovely welcome from Andrew, giving me all the information about the site and local area, plus a chat.
The site is kept immaculate, nothing out of place, water and waste on the pitch, with the pitches at the end enclosed by some impressive trees, giving these pitches the ultimate in privacy.
Sadly no WC's but that wasn't a problem.
Top this site off it has a lovely little Hornby LIVE Steam railway. Which the host Andrew, gave a lovely demonstration to the admiring fellow campers.
Will definitely stay again, thank you!
Excellent maintained 5cl ran by friendly,helpful host Andrew , close to many tourist attractions
What a lovely 5cl impeccably kept and ran by Andrew who is so friendly and knowledgeable.
Pitches 4 and 5 are hedged off giving extra privacy.
Great dog walks..2 fields, plus Holly walk and conifer walk which is great for sheltered walks.
Deer can sometimes be seen in Holly walk in the morning or early evening
Pitches are all hard standing and fully serviced.
Well-situated for many tourist attractions
Secure gated entrance.
Highly recommend
Excellent site
We have just spent 3 nights at Bonnyview on our way up to Killin, wanted to view "Falkirk Wheel" and "Kelpies", both on signposted trails direct from the campsite (3 - 4 miles). Andrew (owner) could not have been more welcoming and friendly and obviously takes great pride in the layout of the site, nothing was too much trouble and pitch was fully serviced (water, electric and grey waste). Would definitely use the site again when up in that area. Thanks again for a great stay.
Very welcoming site and site owner
We stayed at Bonnyview CL on 4th April for 5 nights and the welcome was easy, very well signposted and a secure gate with a padlock (Andrew, the owner, contacted us before arrival with the current code). Lovely welcome from Andrew who showed us around and offered any help needed. The site itself is very nice and you can really tell a lot of pride has gone into it from long time owners. During our stay Andrew showed us around the land and it was so nice to hear the history of the site itself and the work that has gone into making it what it is. Definitely reccommend going for a walk through the conifer walk! We visited lots of places all a short drive away including the Falkirk wheel, Edinburgh, Blackness castle etc. There was a little road noise but i would say still a peaceful place regardless. If we are in the area again we would definitely return. Thanks for a lovely visit!
Splendid Site
Stayed for 5 nights.Andrew gave us a great welcome with plenty of local and interesting information.
The site is very well maintained.Could not ask for more
Brilliant campsite
Campsite was amazing, had lovely areas for eating and lovely fire pit, even had a full outdoor toy train set with train station. Me and family loved it and also was area to go see deer and they came right up close to campsite, andrew the site manager was very friendly and so helpful, glad we picked this site for visiting falkirk would definitely stay again
Fantastic find
Outstanding CL and a great find. Good access off the main road. A level site with excellent security. Good size hard standing and well maintained grass. Individual modern 16A electric point with water and drain. No problems with satellite and arial signals. Chemical waste and bin area easily accessible. The gardens had a number of features. Some mention road noise but we found it minor and no problem. A footpath/cycle track starts at the site entrance, ideal for walking the dog.
Ideal for a motorhome. Good footpaths on all roads and10 minute walk to the main street with mini market and local shops. Indian and Chinese restaurant and carry out. A dog friendly pub/hotel at each end. Larger supermarkets nearby but a good walk away.
Bus service to Falkirk at the site entrance, every 15 minutes and takes about the same time. 45 minutes the other way to Stirling. Falkirk centre has all the shops you need and a large retail and leisure centre forms part of it. A great site for touring as well. Seems like a good train service as well.
Perhaps the nicest thing about the site is Andrew the owner who gave us a warm friendly welcome. He was happy to show me his vintage tractors and agricultural equipment and one evening he fired up his small steam trains for the residents. His garden centre opens for the summer and he specialises in hanging baskets.
Lovely Stay
We choose Bonnyview nuresry for the its location to visit the Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies and we had a lovey stay.
We didn't arrive until 11 pm due to traffic problems, but even at that time Andrew was out to help us get settled.
It was -5 during our stay so the water had to be turned off at our pitch, but Andrew was very helpful in offering anything we needed to ensure we were ok.
The purpose for our visit was to visit the attractions, but we were doing this on our bikes, so again Andrew gave us all the hints and tips we needed.
it was also interesting about the access into Edinburgh or Glasgow and Andrew advised that the train from Larbert (I think) takes you to either, so I would definitely use this CL as a base location.
Pitch was big, access was fine, location great would definitely use this site again.
Thank you Andrew, you are clearly care about your site and keen to ensure everybody enjoys.

Fabulous Site
We stayed at this site in September for 2 nights, and apologise for the delayed review. We had specifically chosen to stay in this area to visit the famous sights of the Kelpies and the Falkirk Wheel. We were not disappointed, and they were both well worth visiting. We made the best choice by having lunch at the Falkirk Wheel before we moved on to the Kelpies, the food was really good with lots of choice and reasonable prices. This site is absolutely wonderful for peace and quiet, and very near to the above attractions. Andrew was very helpful and informative, and was the perfect host. Our pitch was fantastic and we couldn’t have asked for more. All in all a perfect stay for our purpose. Well done Andrew (and thank you for your suggestion of having a great evening meal at the nearby Tea House restaurant).
