Yellowcraig is our local site, being only half an hour from home. However it’s like entering a different universe, peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of modern day living. We usually spend at least a couple of weeks there every summer, and time it to coincide with the Scottish Open at the nearby Renaissance Club. This time we were joined by our family who had borrowed a campervan and had never “camped” before. Have to say the wardens, Sam and Darren, went above and beyond the call of duty in helping them get sorted with a pitch near to us, even lending them their own power cable as theirs was too short to reach the bollard. Their help was hugely appreciated. Always ready with a smile and a wave as they went about their daily tasks, really great people. As for the site, well we’ve been going for decades and will continue to do so, however I must say the pricing is now getting ridiculous for the facilities on offer. No service pitches, toilet block needs refurbished, no wifi and barely a phone signal. Almost £50 a night this year. So many private sites offer better facilities at much less cost. We used to only ever go to Club sites but that’s now changing as they are pricing themselves out the market. Also why is the toilet block not locked? It’s open to anyone to use and often people wander in from off site to use it. So unfair when we are paying top dollar for the privilege.
