This was our second visit to this fantastic site run by the friendliest and hardest working wardens that we have encountered in 36 years of caravanning. The site is beautifully kept by the TWO wardens and the toilet block and wash area are also spotless. the location of the site is great for touring around Fife and being located at the edge of Balbirnie Park has great walks for families and dog owners. The Village is a very short walk away with local convenience store and a hotel/ pub (dogs welcome) all within less than 5 minutes away. The Wardens have gone the extra mile to enhance the park with flower beds and pots around the site.
First class Scottish site
Couldn't fault the site or the wardens -.first class in every way, friendly help and advice always available from the on site people
Only very minor crib is the lack of wifi, but perhaps that should be a bonus !
"A Gold Star for the Wardens"
We stayed here in April 2016 for the 2nd time in 7 month and feel the wardens go above and a beyond the Wardens remit for Customer Service on Caravan Club Sites. In October last year they were toiling in very difficult terrain to plant Bulbs for Spring Colour, the result was a tremendous display amongst the Trees and added to that the tubs, "Buckets", raised beds were a riot of colour and welcoming when we drove on in April.
As a beautiful tree covered site, the Autumn Fall in October must present a daunting task to ensure all is clear for the start of the Season, it was pristine.
The wardens certainly have taken "ownership" of the site to ensure it is presented to its very best with an immaculate Toilet Block and facilities.
They are a charming and helpful couple and should be commended for their commitment.
Lovely Balbirnie & Fife
Had been to Balbirnie before when we first bought our caravan. Should have been back sooner as it is a lovely site. We took advantage of the mid week offer & so we were only there this time a few days & it snowed! But we still enjoyed our stay. The facilities were clean & well looked after. The site has some tree cover & though part of it is overlooked by some housing, it hasn't been a problem to us. In spite of the weather we managed to do a small walk along the Fife coastal path, visited the ship "Discovery" in Dundee & the National Trust property Hill of Tarvit mansion. We like Fife & Balbirnie is well placed for this area. The parkland around the site is ideal for walking if you want to walk without having to take the car & Markinch is just a short walk away for shops etc. Haven't been in summer so don't know if it is a busy site or not in the season. As we don't have family we haven't given a full rating.
Balbirnie Park
This site was well located for my purpose in visiting the area. I was made very welcome and the facilities were very good and clean. I had my dogs with me and the park close by was adequate for waking them.
Kingdom of Fife
have been to site a few times and I find there are lots of places to see and visit, its not all Edinburgh! seek and ye shall find ? there are plenty days out and easy trips to enjoy
Excellent site
We have visited this site many times. The facilities are definitely 5 star standard and the staff are very pleasant and helpful. There is plenty of easy walking in the adjacent Balbirnie Park so it is an excellent site for dog owners. There are not a lot of tourist attractions in the immediate vicinity of the site but there is a busy railway station about 20 minutes walk away which is an ideal way to get into Edinburgh.

Immaculate and well-located site
We stayed here for a few nights to explore the coastal villages of Fife and were not disappointed. The site is in an excellent location and is great for those seeking peace and quiet as well as providing immediate access to a large country park for dog walking. The site is immaculate and very well maintained with friendly and helpful wardens. The shower block was exceptionally clean and a credit to the site wardens. We will definitely be returning, as this is a handy location for Edinburgh but without the hustle and bustle of a more family-orientated site.
Amazing site
