This well located site is usually quiet and peaceful. The whole site is clean and tidy; the shower block is immaculate. Staff are efficient and friendly. A pebble beach is directly across a quiet road, Stonehaven centre is a few minutes walk away and the best fish and chip shop in the world (according to Lonely Planet) is a couple of hundred yards away. In Wednesday evenings in the summer, it is far from quiet as the open air pool next door holds a weekly disco from 10 until midnight. However, staff made us aware of this when we arrived so we simply opened the windows and sang along with the music! I was tempted to go, but settled for a pleasant swim on a sunny afternoon instead. Stonehaven is a delight with a pretty harbour, great local museum in the old tollbooth, apparently run by Jim, an entertaining volunteer.
