Great facilities!

Very conveniently located site by Killin. We had a great couple of days hiking on Ben Lawers and the Tarmachan Ridge nearby, also enjoyed seeing the historic Moirlanich longhouse. Very good facilities on site, the only thing we lacked was somewhere to freeze our coolblocks...Cheers, Linda and Stewart

Great site, great location

A friendly welcome with spacious pitches. The site is clean and well maintained. Plenty of hot water in the shower blocks. Great location near to the village (coop supermarket & plenty of places to eat) and access into the forestry from by the falls or walks near the loch. Also now has the new premier wifi which is great. I will return.

Lovely location for walking, facilities clean but could use upgrade

Beautifull location, lovely walk to Loch Tay just from the campsite. Or to the Falls of Dochart via the old railway path. Also walking distance to the village and shops/restaurants/fish&chips van. Facilities are clean but could use an upgrade. Very friendly welcome.

Beautiful location and area.

Spacious pitches and sufficient services albeit the facilities could use a fresh coat of paint. Hestitant to book initially due to the negative reviews of the facilities but the site is great in every aspect. Agree with earlier reviews that the facilities block is comprehensive, clean and quite functional but could use some paint and floor improvements We really enjoyed staying here and walked to the Killin hotel for an excellent dinner.

Disappointing return after 17 years

We last visited 17 years ago, at the time we were impressed with the site I recall; however the club appears to have invested very little in this site in the preceding 17 years, the facilities block, whilst clean, was in desperate need of refurbishment, the floors in particular are stained and discoloured and look pretty disgusting! The CAMC proudly state there is a 7% pitch fee reduction on this site (and advertise the same fact on many others); but had they not increased the pitch fees over the preceding few years to such inflation busting amounts (and this is across the network as a whole) they wouldn't need to be offering such discounts! The site is walkable into the town, which is nice, the location next to the river, and the views of the surrounding hills are very nice. To attract customers CAMC need to further review their pricing policy, and invest in facilities such as at this site, otherwise customers such as us, and others, will desert to better value for money options, and they are out there!

Amazing viewn etc.

What a lovely site , great walks from the site and a short stroll into Killin which has a few shops and a choice of places to eat , mostly all dog friendly. The shower block could definitely benefit from updating however it was clean and warm. Pitches are level with some having no tv reception but the wardens explained this on arrival and told us which pitches had sun etc. No dog walk on site but lovely walks from the site. Highly recommended .

Nice location

Lovely location right next to the river surrounded by mountains, Forrest and Lochs. Standard Caravan and Motorhome club pitches etc. Really warm and organised check in from the wardens set the tone for a lovely stay. Facilities long overdue for an upgrade although the showers were hot. The site would benefit from some fully serviced pitches. Good WiFi and reasonable TV signal. Ten minute walk into Killin with plenty of places to eat and a few shops including a large Co-op. Plenty to see in the area including the Falls of Docherty, Loch Tay, Loch Earnhead, Kenmore, Aberfeldy and not much further to Loch Lomond, Glencoe, Crieff, Pitlochry, Perth etc.

1st visit to this site

This was our 1st visit to this wonderful site, the scenery all round is fantastic and the site is so peaceful when a lot of the time all you can hear are the birds singing. Very friendly staff always had time for a chat. Showers were lovely and hot. We visited various places around the area, we visited The Kelpies, it was 50 miles from the site but worth the visit amazing structures. We also had a run to Aberfeldy which is a quiet place, but be very careful if you travel on that road as many people do not slow down and the road is narrow and twisting, again the scenery is also worth the drive to there. There are eateries etc in Killin itself if you wish to eat out. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this site and will be visiting again in the future even for the scenery alone!

Stunning Location

This club site is in a great location with beautiful scenery providing a stunning backdrop. Friendly and helpful wardens who made you feel very welcome after a long drive. Plenty of walking/cycling straight from the site with routes to suit all tastes and abilities. Community shop and Post Office in the village together with a Coop, chemist and numerous cafes and pubs. We were there over Easter and as one would expect, the site was busy. The pitches by the river felt tight and packed in but we were happy with our large pitch on the other side of the large expanse of grass. As someone else has previously mentioned, there is no dedicated dog walk on site. Whilst I accept that there is plenty of walking in the area, early morning and late night trips involve a walk along a 'no through' lane in front of residential properties which I'm sure they love!! (or like some - you exercise them on site). If you are away from the riverside, beware that some less thoughtful members think nothing of cutting across pitches (even when you're sitting out) to make a direct line to the toilet block.
