Lovely location for a holiday

We were greeted on arrival and personally shown to our pitch.We stayed on one of the fully serviced pitches which was excellent. The site was quiet and well maintained and the location couldn't be better if you have a dog. There are walks in the woods just a few minutes from the site. Grantown on Spey is only 0.5miles away with some lovely shops, and there are more woodland walks for the dog. Would highly recommend and we will be back

Very Much a commercial site

Be aware, although an affiliated site, I feel this is in name only! It is avery large and commercial site. It is clear the future focus of the owners is to expand the posh lodges. Sites quite tight together, and the trees/hedges are now very very tall and there is little view over the hills unless walk right to the top of the site where the new lodges are. All roads are tarmacced, which seems to make people drive quite fast, there are no humps/speed signs. The toilet blocks are clean and it's nice to shower without the damned push button showers in many club sites! There is no longer an information centre with lesflets; this may just be due to C19; but we were told simply to scan the QR code outside! Fine of you have/can use a smartphone! Overall a nice site, just don't expect to be like a club site.

Great base for exploring the Cairngorms

We stayed 3 nights in the school holiday time. This made the play park busy, but there is a rule to vacate the park at a reasonable time in the evening which makes everything peaceful at the important time. Not the place for you if you stay all day on site and want tranquil times. Facilities very clean and tidy and the large conifer hedge in front of us gave our little row of caravans a high level of privacy. So, although the site is quite large, it felt small. The enormous choice of things to see and do is the huge plus. Not a huge choice of eating places in Grantown itself, so important to make early bookings.

Few grumbles,

We have used this site for many years and it has grown tremendesly. Most things are very good, it is very clean everywhere. Two things that could do with some attention though, the massive conifer hedge in the middle of the site is awful and makes pitches close to it very dark. We use the top pitches which are very pricey now. When we first started going there years ago you had a great view of the Cromdales, now most of the view is obscured by this massive "hedge". Also the bank behind the top pitches is looking very overgrown. Also a bit concerned that we had e mails whilst touring Scotland prior to stopping at Grantown for the last week asking for full payment before we arrived on site and messages left on the home phone when we got home too! Apart from this it is a lovely site.

Mature Couple

Stayed here for 3 nights mid-May. Disappointed to not be given a pitch higher up at the back of the site as requested, but fortunately no children playing around the toliet block as we had feared. Some noisy neighbours. Very good site for walking directly from the site - marked trails in the woods to the south and north of the town, and a good path along a disused railway line. Easy drives to Loch Garten and Loch an Eilein - both very pretty to walk around.

Flying Stopover

We stayed in mid-May on our journey further North for one night. Site was clean, good size pitch, staff were helpful and the shower and toilets were clean. The only complaint was two sets of noisy neighbours behind us. One group talked loudly until well after mid-night whilst the others who were generally quiet thought it a good idea to drop bottles in the bottle bin at 11.30pm from what seemed a great height. We would use the site again but would perhaps request a quiet spot.

Cairngorms Gem

An excellent site in all respects. We had a fully serviced pitch which was huge. Great views of the Cairngorms and it was fun watching the weather fronts circle round as we kept cosy in our van. Free wifi and tv box a bonus as we don’t usually bother with tv whilst on our travels. Toilet block immaculate and underfloor heating a bonus in a chilly, snowy late April. Full recycling good to see Staff so helpful, supportive and friendly - there if needed but not intrusive. We stayed for 3 nights which turned out not to be enough. Lots of opportunities in the area for walking and cycling through the woods or along the river. Town, with lovely shops and well stocked coop within walking distance. Heritage centre looks worth a visit and definitely try the goodies at KJ’s bakery. We will definitely be returning.

Enjoyed our stay! 😊

Just spent a very enjoyable week here. Originally booked for five nights, but decided to stay an extra two as it is such a lovely and well managed site. From the initial enquiry, booking and check in, the wardens were pleasant and helpful.....and you are even taken to your pitch which is a nice touch! Due to Coranavirus we used our own facilities. The area has so much to offer with beautiful walks and scenery. Grantown is a pleasant town with many amenities and is only a short walk from the park. 😊 Thank you all at Grantown on Spey Caravan Park for a very enjoyable stay ....... and we hope to be back!😊

Amazing!

Probably the best site we have visited. Spotlessly clean, fabulous facilities, friendly staff and a great location. Sensible attitude to Covid safety. Toilet/shower blocks shut from 11.30 to 1pm, for cleaning, so none of the early morning rush and queuing experienced at other sites. Beautiful location with plenty of walks to choose from including through the beautiful woodland nearby. A short walk into the lovely village. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Fabulous surprise

We had originally booked the Glenmore Site but it did not reopen (shame on them) and we were fortunate enough to get the last pitch at Grantown. To be honest we weren’t expecting much, we were just glad to be away in the caravan. From start to finish our dealing with and stay on this site was absolutely brilliant. When we booked by phone, Michael was so helpful and informative and that continued with all of the staff during our stay. They simply could not do enough for us, including Michael expertly guiding me on to the pitch, which was in an awkward place to reverse into. We were a little worried about being right next to the play park, but apart from one noisy early morning (kids belonging to people packing up to leave no doubt), it was not a problem at all. The site is in a beautiful location, right next to walking and cycling trails and only a few hundred yards from the centre of Grantown. I have been to Grantown before and wasn’t impressed, but this time I found it a lovely and endearing little town. The site is spotless and really well laid out. The toilet/shower block is simply the best we’ve ever experienced in more than 20 years of caravanning, hygienically clean, constant hot water (no push button showers here) and totally enclosed individual showers and wash basins. We had a brilliant holiday and this site contributed massively towards it. We had intended to go back to Glenmore next year but have now decided to re-book at Grantown, it’s an extra 30 mins on a 7.5 hour journey, but definitely worth it. ..... oh, and the food from the take away van which visits regularly is also really excellent. Well done to one and all involved with this site!
