Great Base for Exploring

Stayed here 14 nights and then 4 nights and managed to get constant sunshine. Staff were friendly as were all fellow motorhomers and caravanners. Also showed us flexibility on both dates to extend stay. Only downside was small - wee playpark closed but was for essential maintenance. Covid restrictions were necessary but great with visiting now for grandkids and family. Cleaning times in facilities clearly visible and always somewhere open. Quiet and serene while we were there. Great for dog lovers and plenty useful information. We chose this site to get to know our motorhome and it's a great base for exploration. Sadly the park is only accessible from the busy roundabout because the Motherwell entrance is blocked off. That also means you might need to take your motorhome with you because public transport is non-existent for miles. This is however a Strathclyde Park issue and not the Campsite itself.

Lack of flexibility

Disappointed with our visit. differences in the support/flexibility of wardens. It would appear that 2 are longer on this site than the others and friendlier with regular customers. Lots of time spent cutting grass than on customer service. Other newer wardens were helpful and chatted while doing their tasks. Toilet block was clean and bin areas attended to on a daily basis. Site is well located from the motorway and easily assessible. Noise from motorway didn't bother us. Lots of walking areas for those who wish to take their dogs away from the site.

Very tidy site

We stayed for two nights to break the journey north and to have family visit us on the site, then again for one night to break the journey south. We were pleasantly surprised how immaculately well kept the site was. On the club sites we've visited in the last 3 years we've often seen the staff mowing the grass but have never until now seen them on all fours picking weed out of the hard standing. From the point you enter the site it is obvious that the staff take great pride in their work, a credit to the club. I'd go as far as to say it's probably the nicest club site we've been on. It more than makes up for the traffic noise from the near-by motorway which can be annoying at times. The site is a very handy base to visit almost anywhere in Central Scotland thanks to the brilliant road network.

Good base

We had five nights there with friends as a base to go sight seeing, the site is immaculate and the gardens are fantastic. There is some motorway noise but sort of disappears into the background and you forget about it. It’s not a holiday destination but a great base for sightseeing. It doesn’t feel cramped like a previous review and we didn’t see any travelers. However the state some people leave the toilets in was appalling, these individuals should be ashamed of themselves. I feel sorry for the wardens who have to clean up after these individuals, they are doing a fantastic job on this site.

Handy overnight stop

We use this site as a stopover on way south to England . Always very clean . Depending on where pitched you can experience traffic noise from the motorway. Lots of walks nearby and restaurant within walking distance for breakfast or dinner.

Okay, but not sure if I like it.

Clean, modern, 9m square level hardstandings, friendly welcome. It's a good location for me personal visiting family and having the park nearby is also handy for the dog walks and grandchildren to visit (outside of Covid restrictions). In just wasn't a comfortable site for me. Many of the people staying there are either single nighters moving on to the highlands or heading south back home or families there for the park facilities, and bring a different approach to the sites use compared to more normal site experiences in my opinion i.e. spreading themselves out with bikes, canoes, hammocks, large screen TV's playing in the awning and various ball games.

Over crowded, very rough location

If you like a site where they have simply tried to cram as many caravans as they possibly can to the point where your position on pitch is paramount for fire regulations, where every window on your caravan overlooks several other caravans this is the site for you. The reviews state the site is clean, well, with the income they generate from the amount of pitches they’ve crammed in I should hope so. The site is right next to the motorway so constant noise, there seemed to always be a caravan or car alarm going off and everyone had a small yappy dog. It seemed to attract a particular type of clientele who were more concerned by what everyone else on the site was doing than simply enjoying their “holiday” This is by far our least favourite site of all the sites we have stayed on.

Clean and pristine site

Stayed here this weekend for 2 nights. Really straightforward to find just off motorway. There is a little road noise but not excessive and couldn’t hear it when inside the van to sleep. Lovely clean facilities on site. Loads of options for walks from the site into the country park. Either the 4ml loop round the loch or through the woodland areas. Toby Carvery within a 5min walk from the site gives options for breakfast lunch and dinner. Great site for a last minute break.

Very well kept, but suffers from road noise

The site was easy to find and immaculately kept with spotless facilities. Easy walking distance to the Country Park. Unfortunately the sound of the nearby motorway was all too obvious. It's a useful stopping off place, but not really for a holiday.

Somewhat disappointed.

Somewhat disappointed with the nearby road noise on site, not the sort of site to enjoy peace and quiet although ok for a stopover or visiting the attractions in the area. My wife and I were disappointed by having to point out to staff regarding the hand sanitizers being empty or none operational on numerous occasions.We eventually gave up for our last couple of days and decided to use our own sanitizer. As previous reviews regarding some of the visitors on site we had transit Van's driving slowly around the site having a good look around at other cars and caravans which made us feel very uneasy. I had used this site for a one night stopover previously having purchased our caravan locally and wanted to return to this site. Now due to our recent experience we shall not be returning any time soon.
