We stopped at Clachan in July 2024 and enjoyed our stay very much.
Lovely woodland spot, nicely presented, lovely staff and despite no toilet block etc (which we knew before arrival) other facilities - water, bins etc very well placed and very clean! Marked location down a little as not right on the door step for beautiful Kilin, but still handy.
Definitely would return if in the area again.⭐️
Great 3 weeks
My wife and I spent 3 great weeks at Clachan . The site was really well looked after by the wardens who were very helpful and friendly. There are no showers and toilets on site but we were aware of that before we booked. Although we were quite near to the road it was very quiet most of the time. Killin is nearby with a well stocked COOP and a paper shop just across the road. Fuel is available just outside of the village ( the only fuel for quite a few miles). Stirling and Glen Coe are both within easy driving distance.
It is a beautiful area to visit. Thank you very much to the wardens.

relaxing
Clachan site is a quiet peaceful relaxing place to be , the sound of owls & woodpeckers and the ducks that wander around . You would not think you were close to a road !!! It's a lovely maintained wooded area with good size pitches, there may be no toilet blocks etc but that does not matter. Staff were brilliant with a good sense of humour and constantly clearing the site of leaves and broken branches and had time to chat. Killin can be reached within a few mins by car or by walking the road or through the golf course. There are good eating options within the village and a chip van at the village hall, there is a coop for any supplies .

A very peaceful and idyllic site
The Number Plate recognition system worked perfect for me, and I pitched up on my own on a location I selected. A lovely spot within the terraced pitches on this forested site.
Road noise was more or less negligible, and as many of the pitches are seasonal, it was very quiet. I love these sites which have no facilities block as it avoids the busy, hustle bustle seen at many places and the to and fro to the block.
The only negative is that the chemical disposal points need a bit of attention. The one closest to me was worn out with the sealant/mastic/filler on the corners being non existent and generally a bit scabby, and not appearing very hygienic .
I will definitely return.

A Special Site
Another visit to this jewel of a CC site. Yes, the road can be a bit noisy at times but the layout of the site is excellent and the woodland full of birds and birdsong, a perfect place to relax.
The wardens were hard-working, helpful, very pleasant and kept the site as it should be, neither scruffy nor manicured.
The waste-disposal facilities are way past their best and this requires prompt replacement by the Club - just because it's not a " flagship site" does not mean the facilities should be sub-standard.
Sadly, there were the inevitable minority who refuse to keep their dog(s) on a lead.
The ANPR entry system had some hiccoughs on the first couple of days we were there but, once that was sorted, it worked very well.
Long may these simple sites exist in the Club's network.
Lovely site... but
Stayed for the second time over Easter. This time I was very disappointed to find that the best pitches, furthest away from the road and to the rear of the site are all now Seasonal pitches and out of bounds to tourers. This being despite no seasonal pitches being shown on the site plan. I think the club need to update the site plan to clearly show that there are now a lot of pitches out of bounds to tourers.
Wardens are constantly busy and maintain this lovely site to a high standard. Last time it was so peaceful, however now I had to use the pitch closest to the road which somewhat destroyed the quiet.
Peaceful and well kept site
We stumbled upon this site heading south and lovely lady accomodated us for the night. Barrier code entrance and we were informed of the site and were able to pick our own plot. Lady, sadly didnt catch her name was helpful and made sure we were ok.
Facilities good and priced well. ehu,chemical waste water and waste.
No toilet shower block but we were informed.
We walked on the road toward village but need to be careful of passng cars.
Well kept site no views as trees outline it but very comfortable
Woodland site with red squirrels running around and red deer visible through the fence. Peaceful and relaxing with clean and easy to use facilities.
Easy to find peaceful and relaxing site. There are several seasonal pitches here but none of them were in use while we were there which added to the peacefulness. We saw red squirrels, red deer and had lovely views of the river valley from out pitch. The site was well tended by the staff with the plants and flowers looking lovely.
It is very near to killing where you can spend at least on day exploring and if you're feeling fit than you can climb the hill behind the town by parking in the town hall carpark and setting off through the children's play area. It is fairly steep all the way up and all the way down so wear good walking shoes or boots and don't rush. The views of loch Tay from the top of the hill are tremendous.
Fab helpful staff
We have stayed here a number of times and it is a fave stop in Scotland. The staff are so friendly and helpful but they outdid themselves this time by reuniting us with some clothes that had been put in the rubbish bins by accident. They retrieved them and got them boxed and will be posting them home for us.
