 This is a great wee site. It's set at the foot of the Ochil Hills and the views up to these and over to the Wallace Monument are lovely. The tent area seems to be smaller than it was when I visited about 5 years ago but there do seem to have been some improvements.
The facilities are excellent and the toilet / shower block can't really be faulted. The landscaping and plants/flowers etc all seem very well kept. There is a reception that has lots of local info but doesn't have a shop. They do offer a service to order rolls / papers etc. The local retail park is about 10 minutes away and there is a large supermarket there where you can buy everything you'd need. There's also the new Yeomans at Sterling Mills which, according to googlemaps, is only 13 mins away.
The tent area has a couple of wooden shelters with picnic tables / benches in so if it's raining you have somewhere to cook. There are also plenty of other picnic tables dotted around the field. There are some grass areas that have EHU.
There is a dog walking area at the back of the field which is excellent for walking dogs. We were told on arrival to only walk along to the left of the dog walking park as along to the right there were sheep which were lambing.
All in all this is a very well kept small(ish?) site with lovely views and excellent facilities. If there are any things that I wish this site did have it would be a shop, the toilet block closer to the tent area and maybe a nice pub within walking distance. It is a nice site though and I'll definitely be back and would recommend it to others.

We have just returned from a few days at this lovely site. The park is very clean and well maintained, very children friendly with small enclosed park which kept both my kids amused the whole time we were there.
The Toilet and Shower block was very clean and had ample toilets and showers, we didn't have to queue either mornings, the hot water was great and plenty of it, these were cleaned everyday.You can see why they won 'loo of the year'.
We got a warm and friendly welcome from the owner of the park, and although there was no shop we were asked if we wanted to order milk, rolls or papers which we did, these were all priced very reasonable. The staff were always to hand if you had any queries.
The Touring Pitches are all hard standing and very spacious. Where we were sited the road noise didn't bother us in the least, the only noise was from Jack and Jill, the two goats in the field next to us, but we didn't mind them at all as they were so cute and friendly.
We went for a walk along the road to Blairmains Farm Shop, it had a wide variety of local produce and a cafe / restaurant with prices very reasonable.
Supermarket close by (5 Mins) in car if you need more than basics.
The views of the Ochil Hills are amazing and for the fit, the climb up to the top, the views are out of this world (just don't go into the sheep field or you might get chased).
Although this was our first visit and only an hour from home, we have already booked to go back for longer in August, and hopefully a few weekends in between.

Just back from 2 nights here. It is only 30mins from our home so perfect for our first time camping with our 5 year old boy and twin girls who are 3. We went with some friends who have 3 kids too.
The site is very clean all through. Staff really friendly and efficient. Tent area really nice with lots of moveable picnic tables so we had one in between our tents. Also there are some sheltered picnic benches which we had breakfast in.
The kids took their bikes and safely peddled round the roads and to the play park. The older kids (5 & 8) went alone to the park and we thought it very safe as we were quite close but not close enough to have the little ones (age 3) nagging us to take them!
There is no shop on the site but you can order bread, milk and papers but we didn't. I am glad there is no shop as we spent next to nothing and the kids couldn't nag us for things! We had a car so a 10 minute drive to Morrisons was easy anyway.
The showers were lovely, as my first time camping I was a bit worried about them but was very impressed, lovely hot water and really warm room in fact my favourite place in the cold evenings and early mornings! I liked the touch of playing the local radio station in there so you could catch the news or weather as well as a bit of music to wake you up.
The washing up area was nice (as the men in my group told me!) there was drinking water right near us so we enjoyed lots of fresh water. We almost had all the site to ourselves (tent area that is, there were plenty of caravans).
There was loads of space for kite flying, football and other outdoor games. There is also space for kids to explore in view of the tent which was good, there is a dog walking area too if you have a dog.We had a lovely 2 days and think we were very lucky with the weather. The boys and men in our group walked up to the top of the hill and over and say next time we go back they'll go even further.
We didn't leave the site really but there is a local village with a shop and pub I think but about 2 miles away. We 'made do' with our own wine which was perfectly chilled in the evening without a cool box! There are freezers to put your ice blocks in too and a laundry.
The only thing I thought was a bit strange was that the amenity block was as far away from the tent area as it could possibly be amongst caravans who probably have their own loos and showers.
Overall we will certainly go back and would recommend it to anyone but mostly families, the kids really enjoy being at the park and riding their bikes and while we were there all the kids I encountered were lovely. It may bother some people that there is no shop but no problem for us.
There is some road noise which is a bit of a shame as it seems to go on all night. It bothered some of us more than others and it didn't really bother me. At night we heard loads of owls and some other creatures we didn't know the sound of (a Gruffalo maybe!) Also there were loads of lambs and sheep in the adjacent field who you heard now and again at night but a lot in the day much to the delight of the kids along with rabbits, squirrels and blue tits. My daughters and I were 'lucky' enough to be the first ones up both mornings we were there and enjoyed wandering about watching the world wake up.

As others have said, site was beautiful, well laid out with great scenery and a very easy entrance off the main road. There was a little road noise but we did not hear any at night. Used the convenient park and ride into Sterling.
We had plenty of space on our hardstanding pitch and a good TV signal. Used the pre booking service of milk, papers and excellent bread rolls.
Toilets / showers were very clean and spacious. When going to a wedding and waiting for a taxi in reception, were chatting that it was a minute or two late and the receptionist / owner? without prompting phoned the taxi office to check for us. Would definitely stay at this site again.

This is a great site for families as there is a large playground to keep them amused with climbing frames for kids of all ages.
The site is very level and the views are lovely all around, the toilet block and showers are some of the cleanest we've seen and this helps with the £5 deposit to use them which keeps the kids out when they are unsupervised. There is no actual shop on site but there is a Cafe and Coffee Shop only a mile down the road and Stirling and other small villages are close by for essentials.
The people running the site are very nice and helpful and leave you alone to enjoy yourself.
As I've stated this is a great site to take kids to and tire them out so you can relax yourself.

We only managed to stay here for one night in July. We had brilliant weather which makes a big difference. The campsite is set in a beautiful location with lovely views of the hills.
Everything was kept spotless and tidy. We pitched our tent next to the playpark, which the kids were never away from. The staff were very helpful and friendly.
We will definitely return to this campsite sometime soon.

A very good site. It is important for us that the campsites are child and dog friendly and this one certainly is. The kids and the dog were very happy. As for us adults, the site is lovely. Very well laid out, with lots of flowers to make it a nice site. Toilets and showers are very good, loved the background music in there too!
Highly recommend this site to everybody. The local takeaways even deliver!
Very good.

Site 4 of 5 on our North of England and Scotland Tour.
Access is easy directly off the A91. Noise pollution is a problem at this site.
The site is a mix of grass and hard standings, but I think the gravel areas have been overdone a little and some areas resemble a parking lot. Pitches are tight and you can feel a little hemmed in at times.
TV reception is good and digital reception was possible via a multidirectional status ariel.
The large toilet block though quite adequate is a long way off Caravan Club standards and was frequently out of toilet paper.
A good dog walk on site through the forestry.
No shop on site though all the shops you would need with a very short drive.

(Single mum, 3 Children)We visited this site recently and had a blast. Was the first time I had taken the kids camping so was very dubious about what to expect. The welcome was friendly, helpful and inviting.
We pitched our tent and had dinner at one of the many picnic tables available. The ground was dry enough considering the pouring rain all day. The toilets and shower block were immaculately clean and fresh. Great idea having washing area and a launderette. The fridge was a blessing to store my milk in. Having spent a few days trying to find the gas for my stove was surprised to find that I could have bought it on site. Will know next time if I run out that I can get it there.
Swing park was great for the kids. They loved it even my 13yr old daughter enjoyed herself playing on the swings. Staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The veiews of the hills and monument were breathtaking and got lots of photos to show off to family. As a single mum I felt safe and comfortable on the site and had no worries about the kids wandering off into the woods to investigate and to play on the rope swing. Great fun had by all.
Enjoyed it so much we are going back at the end of July with my Mum to show her how lovely it is. Thanks to all who made it so brilliant.Converted me into a camper.

What can I say about this site? I'll definitely be going back just says it all!
This is a lovely site, as said before there is a cross section of people staying and it's lovely. I can understand why its not easy to book a hardstanding!
We've just spent 4 nights on the site in a tent with EHU. And I really like the fact that you can only book tent pitches 2 days before, means you can have more of an educated guess about the weather, though I would go in the rain!
The site is pretty flat, plenty of space for tents, the picnic benches make a nice touch. They have clearly spent money recently changing grass to gravel on the caravan/motorhome pitches and you can see the drainage ditches for the tent area.
The playpark is a good size and is good for a wide range of ages.
We didn't spend much time going out and about, just took advantage of the weather and chilled out, but you are 5 minutes from Wallaces Monument and only ten minutes or so from Stirling.
There is no shop on site,but you can order rolls, milk and papers from the shop for the next day. But there is small shop in Menstrie (2 mile?) and a bigger Morrisons on the way into Stirling (5 min drive).
The toilet block, though situated at the opposite end of the site to the tent facilities, is no more than 2 minutes walk and it was clean, neat and tidy. It was busy over the weekend but there was never a queue for the showers. There is a £5 deposit for keys but I didn't mind that.
All in I can't really fault the site, and it being so close to home for us means it's ideal for weekend trips.
