Stayed at Banchory last weekend arrived 15th July 2017 for three nights as a stop over between a visit to Balmoral Castle and Aberdeen. Whilst the overall site was maintained rather well and the wardens quite welcoming when we saw them daily.... we found the site quite expensive compared to other sites with much better facilities. Our total pitch fee was £99.00 for three adults and we were not really impressed overall. My wife and I to include my disabled father found that the facilities were rather poor at Banchory and there were certainly not enough toilets and showers for the amount of people that were staying on site which in fact was FULL ( 3 x showers and 3 x toilets for men) the same for womans block and 1 x disabled wet-room and toilet. Every day....everyone had to queue for long periods of time and on the Saturday morning there were five men in front of me waiting therefore it took me nearly one and a half hours just to have a shower. On a daily basis especially in the morning,...there were very long periods of time just to use the toilets too. My father experienced extremely long waits just to use the disabled toilets, because there were only three showers in the men & woman's blocks....everyone who could was using the disabled shower and toilet too, therefore disabled people could not use the facilities. The site was also situated right next to the main Banchory Road and the traffic noise during the day and early evening was rather noisy....it only quietened down around 11pm onward, however early morning around 5 am all the noise started all again and you were awaken early each day. Would I stay there again ....NO, Do I feel it was value for money....NO. Would I recommend this site....NO
