Disaster strikes
We arrived at this site on 15th August for 14 nights, we had booked a serviced pitch with awning, on arrival there were only 2 pitches available 13 & 15 after A week we soon realised why people were avoiding these pitches. However, good points first the site is well situated for shops and walking into Forfar, we also found the park next to site very good as we had grandchildren with us. Nice walk around the Loch and lots of places to visit in Angus within 30 minutes drive. Wardens were very helpful and friendly and the site was immaculate. Would also recommend the Osnaburg pub for family friendly pub with great food which was in Forfar around a 15 minutes walk. However, on the 22/23rd there was torrential rain and we awoke to your awning being 4inches deep in water we had children sleeping in the awning and suitcases with clothes in too. Everything was soaked and the water was not draining away, everything in the suitcase was soaked through as was all of the items stored in there.
I spoke to relief wardens who were very helpful and we moved to mother pitch however, this took 3-4 hours of our day moving soaked through items taking down and putting up our awning. After speaking to other people on site we were told that pitches 13 & 15 always flooded and have done so since the site was owned by the council, needless to say the people on pitch 15 also moved. I was very disappointed as the wardens must have known about this and we were given no warning and as rain was forecast I do feel that forewarning would have allowed us to move items into our car rot prevent such a disaster. If the wardens are aware of the problem it raises the question why hasn't the club done something to rectify this problem. I will be contacting the club personally regarding this matter, but anyone going when rain is forecast beware of those 2 pitches!!
