Nice location

Nothing wrong with the site, visitors just need to be aware that very limited options to walk into the town from the site. The road is to busy and narrow to walk on safely. Site is very nice and warden is friendly and helpful.

Good overall site

Close to village, short drive to killin (village) which has pretty much all you need. No real views from van, and noise from road. Grey water disposal up hill which was a bit difficult. No dog walk from site, need to get in car. It handed for access to attractions, it was a lovely area. This was the first time we'd not stayed in a cl site, the bigger sites are not our favourite, but would stay again.

Too peaceful

Yes it was a bit too peaceful for us, the weather was glorious but most pitches were under the trees, although there were some in the 'open' areas, apart from no toilet block, we couldn't even get a radio reception, no wifi, no tv signal, but no midges. The road outside the site has no footpath so a dangerous walk back to Killin if by foot. However I can see why some people would like this site, but not for us.

My favourite site

This site is very basic (no toilet block!), but my personal favourite. You stay in the forest, well secluded and it feels more like "wild" camping! Plenty of midges, but I guess that's outdoor Scotland for you ... We stayed for two nights both in rain and sun, and it was simply wonderful. Closeby, there are some good walks on ben lawrers

Choices change with circumstances

We returned to Clachan in 2015 after enjoying time there last year. In the past we have stayed at the Maragowan site, also in Killin, when we had family with us and had more need of space and facilities. Clachan is fine for a couple who enjoy the peaceful countryside and the trees. Some pitches are in shade and some may get some sunshine but that will depend on choice at the time. You take that risk wherever you go! The only natural disadvantage is the greater tendency for midges! Walking into the town is not good both for distance and narrow road but it is only a short trip and parking hasn't been a problem for us. The town provides all essentials and the area has plenty to explore!

Clachan caravan site

We stayed at clachan 35yrs ago when had a loan of caravan for the wkend. And always said when we retire would be coming back. So here we are back and got into the same pitch as we had then great nice and quiet ideal for touring about. Very clean and tidy and found it very easy to fill up with water using a Water container with handle and pull it up hill to caravan. The warden David and his wife were very very helpful to us and even came up and tuned in the TV for us and talked to us about the wildlife etc. if the score was 10 out of 10. We would rate it as 15 will defiantly be back again. Great place to chill out and relax watching the ducks

Very depressing

This site is mostly under trees, the ones in the open are mostly taken up by seasonal members. We had little choice of pitch. We had booked 2 nights, but in the morning it was pouring with rain and being under trees was made so much worse, we left after 1 night. It is unfair for the best pitches to be used as caravan parks when the owners are not there.

A newbie needs to learn

As a complete novice to motorhoming, I acknowledge that I have much to learn. Yet possibly the best way is to try things. The following are observations, not complaints. The access to this site is by a code supplied by the nearby CC site. On arrival, the warden (helpfully) jumped out and typed in her own code to open the barrier for me. Result? I still didn't know how to enter the barrier code. I stopped in a pitch for 5 minutes whilst I walked round the site (to avoid reversing the new motorhome until the last possible minute). The other warden jumped out (helpfully) to say that the pitch I was in was a non- hookup site and that pitch such-and-such would be much better. Result? I felt pressured onto a pitch which might not have been my own choice. The motorhome grey water disposal was so positioned that I had to turn the vehicle to face against the one-way system. Fortunately it was so far from the wardens' hut that I didn't get pounced upon again. A very nice, quiet site in a great location; slightly too helpful wardens. I continue to learn - slowly.

Peaceful location in spectacular scenery

We spent five days on this site in August 2015. We were lucky in that only one of those days was wet and no midges were experienced. The site is very quiet with only occasional road traffic noise. It is a few minutes drive from Killin where you can get most essential supplies. The scenery in the area is spectacular. Very helpful and friendle wardens. The only slight gripe is that the TV system is not very good. All we got were 9 commercial channels which made us realise just how good the BBC is! If you want all the channels you need a satellite system.
