beautiful but .....

beautiful, clean, well kept site. However it's right beside the main north/south motorway so not quiet and peaceful. To be honest after a couple of days you don't tend to notice the noise - until the boy racers come out. really lovely site, but lacking a shop. Nor is there one within walking distance. Facilities are good and kept very clean. There’s a Toby carvery and a few other restaurants nearby including family eating places with children’s entertainment just up the road. Country park and lake nearby great for a walk with or without dogs. It's not a holiday destination but is a beautiful, well kept, welcoming site ideally placed for stop overs when going North, South, East or West !

Great journey breaker

Site is mainly used to break up journeys I would think. Large site well maintained and we had a warm welcome from friendly wardens. Our pitch was spacious and it is by the motorway so if that may be an issue don’t book! It didn’t bother us in fact we overslept and we chose a pitch on the edge of the site right next to the motorway. Facilities are.good and kept very clean. There’s a Toby carvery nearby and some family eating places with children’s entertainment just up the road. Country park and lake nearby great for a walk with or without dogs. Nothing to complain about at all. We were very happy to stay there.

Overnight stop

We only stayed one night en route to north east Scotland. We have used this site in the past. The wardens were welcoming and friendly the pitches large and well spaced the shrubs have now grown so help break up the pitches. The only criticism (my husband is 6ft2ins) is that the accessible shower and mirrors in the washroom area are positioned for people of “shorter” stature, the shower adjustable arm needs lifting, but there is no room to elevate the mirrors unless they relocate to the partition walls. Apart from these observations the site is ideal.

Excellent site

Don't be put off by noisy site comments. Due to warm weather we had a fan on all night which was noisier than the traffic. Only when sat outside the van could the humming of the traffic be heard. Take care at the motorway junction as its whacky races and we got stuck in wrong lane and ended up back on M74 heading home!

Great Stopover near Glasgow

We stayed here for 1 night on a Scotland tour, access was good and we were made to feel welcome. Pitch was level, facilities were clean. There is a Toby Carvery within 3 minutes walking distance and a country park within walking distance down the lane (we spotted deer walking along this road!). Downside is that this site is right next to very busy roads, however this becomes white noise after a while as you get used to it. We would return here as a stopover but its not a holiday destination for us.

EASY SITE TO FIND

Do not be put off by comments about this being a noisy site. Yes you can here a gentle rumble of motorway traffic but this was not a problem to us. The site itself is flat and really spacious whichever pitch you choose. The facilities were beautifully warm and spotlessly clean. The perfect location for breaking a long journey north or south.

Excellent site but very noisy

This site is right by the junction of the M74 and the A725, so don't expect it to be quiet - it isn't, it's easily the noisiest Club site I've stayed on. BUT we have stayed here twice and will probably do so again, because of its excellent location. It is very easy to find as long as you take the right junction off the motorway and follow the simple directions in the club handbook. The site is flat, we found TV reception really good (although the Club handbook says it's not) and the facilities are what you would expect from the Club and are of course cleaned daily. We didn't use WiFi. You wouldn't choose this site for a peaceful, relaxing stay. As a night halt it's second to none being so close to the motorway, and for seeing the sights of Glasgow it's pretty good. There is a Toby Carvery directly opposite the entrance. Not much else apart from the country park in the immediate vicinity. It's quite a hike to Bellshill railway station, which has regular trains to Glasgow Central and Edinburgh and it's uphill all the way there, although obviously downhill all the way back! E-bikes make it an easy ride though and you can either go through the country park or straight up the cycle path alongside the busy A725.You can also go to the stations in Motherwell and Hamilton, but we used Bellshill so can't comment on the others. There is a huge Tesco Metro and a large Morrisons Store in Bellshill. Both have petrol stations too.

Excellent site

We have just left this campsite after stopping off on our way home from the NC500. We found the site very easily and were able to choose our pitch. The site is flat with well kept pitches surrounding an excellent facilities block in the middle of the park. The plants around the entrance is particularly well kept and the wardens clearly take pride in this. We had a lovely walk around the boating lake that was built a few years ago for the Commonwealth games and can be found by taking the small path through the woods directly opposite the site. We chatted to many locals on our way around who were extremely friendly and we finished off our day with an exceptional meal at the Toby Carvery round the corner from the site. After some of the disappointing reviews that have appeared on this site recently I felt it important to express how much we enjoyed our stay in this large and spacious site.

Overcrowded and overpriced

Site difficult to find coming from M74, then badly signed within Country Park. Pitch difficult to find, driving round in concentric circles with no help from the warden in Reception and most places too small (despite having booked). No privacy between crowded pitches with noisy children and dogs. Motorway noise. WiFi only at reception with nowhere to sit and use it. The joy of overpriced July camping at its worst! As a new member, I expected better and won't be renewing next year.
