Our visit to this amazing site was in May. With the sea just outside the gate the big decision is whether to walk along the beach into town or go along the prom!!  Actually you can't quite make it all the way along the beach you have to come up to the promenade to cross the stream/river.  It's an easy walk around the bay to the harbour and then back via the town or just stroll back along the beach.  A visit to Dunnottar Castle is a must, the views back to Stonehaven are stunning too.  The castle is a bit up and down so wear good shoes, there is a good car park there too.  This site is one of the best and the very helpful wardens keep it that way.  Wifi works well and so does the Satellite for TV, Seagulls are the only real noise but maybe in the summer months you might get noise from the swimming pool!
