 The site location is amazing for nearby outdoor activities. We have really enjoyed the weekend in Faskally. On site spa and pool is in excellent condition and good relaxing during rainy days.

 Hi and a very good morning to all campers, caravaners, etc etc having just joined I thought I would give my honest opinion of faskally site? Well to begin on arrival we were allocated a lovely pitch ( a3) with scenery to die for?

The toilet/ shower block was very well sited very near our pitch so so far so good ! After getting all tent and equipment set up myself and my brother decided to have a walk round the site to check out the other facilities. There is a well stocked shop with just about anything you would need for your time here. There is a large playpark for the kids (and adults). Behind the main shop you will find the swimming and arcade complex which is supervised. The bar itself was not open till approximately 6 o'clock in the evening (which is a bit of a small letdown as it would have been great to get a juice after a swim). The cost for swimming is £2. 00 which is very reasonable

If you would like to take either a longish walk into Pitlochry or the local bus, which stops outside, you will maybe find a bargain or 2.

Come night time there were varying types of guests either side of us, but come 10 / 11 all went quiet, so no problems there? With trying to sleep. I should add in conclusion that we had both came with our fishing equipment and if you contact a lovely guy and his family (Campbell Dixon) at the boat station, he will give you the information what and where to fish. From there are small motor powered boats for hire for a reasonable price and again fishing. In and around loch faskally is in itself gorgeous.

We have now been back on 4 occasions since May and loved every minute. Great home from home. Plenty of views. Peaceful. But best of all a great place to holiday. So until our next visit, chow for now. Phil n James dundee

 The campsite is in a beautiful location, perfectly situation for walks and Pitlochry. The staff are great, really friendly and helpful. The site has a pool and bar which also does food. There are four washing machines and dryers, the shop was well stocked and happy to freeze your fridge blocks for free. The wifi is a bit expensive but there is wifi.

There are walks along the river and to Killiecrankie, Pitlochry is an easy walk of around a mile and a half. There are two toilet blocks one near the tourer area and park and one for the tenting area. These have been updated in recent years. However the hair dryer in the block nearest the tents only one worked intermittently, showers were push button but you could adjust the temperature. Plenty of sinks and toilets. They were cleaned throughly every morning (at around 9am) but the second block was always open when one was being cleaned.

Now the bad stuff, we were tenting with my brother in two tents for two weeks, bear in mind we have been camping for years usually around Perthshire, out of our two weeks there we had only three nights of quiet in the second week. We had at least five other tents next to us during the course of the holiday only one of which was quiet.

Kids as young as two were allowed to run around bare foot in the mud unsupervised, parents would sit drinking beer playing loud music until the small hours of the morning, as the kids were unsupervised the toilets were a mess with paper strewn everywhere, poop and toilets blocked and left unflushed, dogs wandered around off lead, one woman brought her dog into the toilet with her and I mean into the toilet, I'm not fussed about this but I could see if there were people allergic or afraid it could be a problem. In the men's toilets some lovely cretins pulled one of the toilets of the wall.

There was yobs playing loud and I mean loud music from their cars for hours, leading to flat batteries the next day lots of shouting a pushing to get it going and tearing up of the grass. Car doors slamming, van doors slamming till early hours, Others arrived just as bad, women setting up gazebos for gatherings and cackling the night away. The swearing from the transient campers was abysmal and vile and LOUD. We complained to the campsite about all this and they did take it on board but it all started happening again on the Friday night. One woman on the Friday decided to shout at the top of her lungs at around 0030am that she was not a slag, he'd invited her over and she was going to knock the other woman of her feet, interspersed with c words and f words.

If you are going for your precious annual holiday give this place a miss, if however your a yob who lacks parenting skills and doesn't give a sh**t about anyone else - go for it. I feel sorry for those who own caravans there.

 We spent nine nights at faskally using the site as a base to tour the highlands. Although the weather wasn't the best the site drained really well and the pitch was a good size.

The facilities were second to none very clean and well kept. The bar/restaurant was reasonably priced and my wife enjoyed the pool and its facilities, the shop was well stocked and good on price. Although we had no children with us the children on the site had plenty of room to play and the play area was well used by all the children on the site and we may be bringing our grandchildren on our next visit.

The staff were very helpful and friendly and made us feel very welcome. We will recommend this site to all our friends and will definitely be returning in the future.

 Tv reception ok. Good phone signal.

(For), Easy access. Very nice welcome in reception.

Against; Lack of signage when looking for pitch numbers. And Pitch numbers when found are set in the grass on the floor, so you have to keep getting out of the car to keep checking you’re in the right area. We had been assigned to a tent area even though it was sloping, and muddy in parts where awnings or Large tents had been. Views of the hills beyond but overlooking a sea of static caravans. Did not use showers or toilets. Only one chemical disposal, set behind the reception on a narrow path, this for over 70+ tourers.

If you’re feeling fit you can walk to Pitlochry along the footpath or along the riverside, though I did neither. Overall not my kind of site but nearest to Pitlochry.

 Just returned from 5 day stay here Mon-Fri. The site is mostly static caravan and chalet accommodation, and being at the end of the off-peak stay was largely unoccupied until the Friday night, when weekenders arrived.

We were made very welcome by the lady in the shop who took the time to explain the site facilities and the surrounding area, and tell us about walks (dog walks) we could use while there.

Well stocked shop on site, we are used to fending for ourselves so didn't make much use of it, great for emergencies.

Onsite bar and restaurant but not dog friendly so we spent our money elsewhere. (lots of dog friendly places in Pitlochry, great to escape the rain)

Site is very close to A9 and A925? main route to Pitlochry, so some road noise can't be unexpected. Wasn't an issue.

The tent field was very well situated for the toilet block. Toilets and site are well maintained and kept clean and tidy. Unless you are being a nuisance you will be left alone.

We had some very heavy rain showers, virtually every day, but the site did not become that boggy.

Located very close to Pitlochry (walkable along the river or a shorter route by the main road) and Killiecrankie (not much there).

We used the site as a base to venture out to Kinloch Rannoch and Dunkeld.

All the tent pitches have hook up.

Enjoyed our stay, would come again as a 1 night stopover.

 A mixed review of a one-night stopover. Close to the A9, but little road noise. The site is largely statics, the motorhome / caravan area is at the bottom of the hill. We arrived without booking, the shop / reception was shut, a passer-by said to check at the bar and there we were told to take a pitch and pay in the morning. So - good customer service; £23 for hardstand, EHU and 2 people, about the going rate in the area.

There's a good on-lead dog walk through the neighbour's woods to an open field by the river. The EHUs are located around the play area, so it was very noisy (children largely unsupervised) until it was too dark to play.

Good roomy toilet block, but most of the gents cubicles were vandalised in the evening (too foul to use), so it was closed at 0900 for deep cleaning. Ladies closed at 10:00 - not convenient, I didn't get a shower. £23 for 2 adults, dog & EHU. We'd stopover again, but a holiday? No.

 Good site good facilities handy for Pitlochry. September weekend was very busy however the staff had the site well organised. Never tried the food as we ate in town where the choice is fairly good. Great walk along the river to Pitlochry which is a very nice town.

Handy for a9 If you want to travel about and visit other places. Would recommend a walk at the hermitage centre then fish supper in dunkeld. Best chippie ever. The site is great for kids however if you don't have any maybe ask for a pitch closer to the shop as play park at the other end is busy with kids morning to night. All in all a great site. We have now used it three times with no complaints.
