Date of Visit: June 2013 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Aldoscott 19 reviews from this member

 We spent a lovely weekend here in June 2013.

The site is in a great location and the facilities are OK.

If you don't mind jumped up wardens, no hand wash in the toilets and messy pitches then this is the site for you.

All joking aside, when we arrived we informed the warden that our party of 5 was only 3 for 1 night then 5 for the second night. She informed us that we would have to pay for 5 for both nights. She told us to pay then call head office to request a refund. My wife stated that she wasn't prepared to do this. So after a huge sigh and tut she changed the booking.

The next day we asked if it was ok for our guests who we had paid for to stay the night to bring their car in to drop of their belongings. We were told that they could bring the car in for 10 mins only. Considering that there was no other pitches taken anywhere near us I thought that it was a little unreasonable.

When they arrived they were told that their car would be towed by police if they were not staying on site or they would be charged before they could explain that we had already paid.

Finally there was no hand soap in the toilets from Friday lunch time until we asked for some on Saturday evening.

All in all it is a nice location for a site but the hard standing pitches need weeded and tidied, the showers need cleaned and above all the wardens need to become a little more customer friendly before we would return. 
Management response: Please note this site is under new ownership and management with effect from March 2023.

 Not a cheap site to stay on! However, this is a lovely site and the setting is fantastic right on the shores of Loch Lomond. We had booked a basic pitch and were directed to pitch next to a wall over the bridge. The area around was very scruffy and could do with a tidy up. There were a couple of caravans that had been left in the area which were dirty and looked untidy. The grass could have done with cutting also and pitches weeding.

We asked to be moved to a better located pitch but it was going to cost an extra £15 per night including electric hook up which we didn't need which is ridiculous so we stayed put.

The toilets and showers were excellent.

There was a small shop on site but we didn't use this.

 Probably one of the most expensive sites we've ever stayed in at nearly £30 per night. Site was very flat and very very clean. Toilets and showers were immaculate and the showers were lovely and hot. Managers were friendly and helpful. Was it worth £30 per night? Not for the facilities - had just as good for far cheaper but you are paying for the views!

We took one of the more expensive pitches right at the lochside and the views were breathtaking! To be able to sit and look over the water all day and to see that view first thing in the morning was priceless.

Not somewhere we could go regularly at that price but definitely a nice treat.

 We stayed here for 2 nights on the way back from Isle of Skye. The road into the site can be tricky but once in it is easy to manouvre.

It is a big site with fantastic views of Loch Lomond-in fact it is right on the banks with all the Superior oitches (top price pitches) on the loch side. The remaining pitches still had amazing views and were big enough for a caravan and awning. The grass surround was very boggy and muddy which isn't good with 2 dogs but it had been raining so choose your pitch carefully as some are more boggy than others.

For such a large busy site it was surprisingly quiet.

The toilet/shower (free) facilities were good and there was an outside undercover pot wash. The managers were helpful and friendly and the office had lots of leaflets and information and provisions if needed.

The area was outstanding.

Walks abundant and things/places to see and do. A walkers paradise! There was also a great pub in the village but you have to drive there as it is a bit too far to walk especially if raining!

All in all a lovely area and the site is good if in that area.

 Our 2nd Stop on our family roadtrip! On arrival the warden was extremely helpful, directing us to our pitch, that we could choose ourselves overlooking the loch with electric and a picnic bench.

Breathtaking views! We were on hardstanding which was fine apart from having to wear shoes in tent but next time we go we will take slippers.

Amazing shower rooms and facilities.

Kids Park could be a little bigger and with a babies swing.

We had a walk a bit to get drinking water, but that might not be true as it was raining and I just ran to the first one I saw.

We had 1 night of gale force conditions where a few tents nearly ended up in the loch but it won't put us off returning in two weeks time again!

Worth every penny and the wardens are brilliant - they helped us when we needed to see a doctor for our little one.

Can't wait to return, think I'll bring a boat and fishing rod next time.

 Absolutely Fabulous weeks stay here.

The people who run it are friendly, and willing to help with anything.

Facilities are amazing.

Scenery even better

Fabulous rates.

Toilet n showers blocks were exceptionally clean n bright

Shop on site was really well stocked and reasonably priced.

Playground was wonderful for the children and well situated in the middle of site so all parents could see their children

Overall rating A*.

But take lots of repellent ! The wee beasties were very vicious this year.

(But never put us off coming again ever) !

Reviewer: Wigtowner 19 reviews from this member

 This was our first visit to Cashel. The site is in a beautiful location on the shores of Loch Lomond.

We found an excellent pitch with an unobstructed view of the loch although next time we will book a premier pitch which is looking on to the shore and has a picnic table.

The staff were very pleasant, the small shop provides fresh baked bread in the morning. The coffee shop was 'out of order' due to some electrical fault.

The feeder roads to the pitches were pretty rough in places and not too good for walking on in the wet conditions when we were there.

The midges were vicious. Could the site consider a couple of midge catcher machines which I understand are very effective in reducing their numbers.

I notice remarks left on one of the reviews about there being a lot of Hobby vans on the site. We had no problem with them. They appear to be used by families who enjoy the peaceful surroundings on a regular basis. It would not put me off from going back.

We had a lovely walk with our dog to the foot of Ben Lomond and watched a Golden Eagle circling above us. In the field opposite the site we saw a red deer munching grass along with the cattle.

There are quite a few Loch cruises which can take you over to Luss which is a very pretty village on the opposite side of the loch. You have a two hour stay there which allows time to have a meal.

There is a lovely hotel overlooking the loch which is only a short walk from the jetty. Don't trip over the ducks on the way along the beach!

Take The Highroad was filmed on location in this picturesque village. We could have done with Wi- Fi on site but found the Inn at Balmaha had it.

The toilet blocks were clean with good hot water at the showers.

All in all a good site and one we would return to.

Reviewer: SusanMcT 12 reviews from this member

 We camped here for 2 nights in July. The location is beautiful. We pre-booked a select pitch which was rather pricey but the view made it worth while. We brought along plenty rock pegs as they are hard standing pitches all along the front row. Unfortunately our pitch was directly under a tree which dripped sticky sap onto the roof of our brand new tent, not good!

The facilities are excellent. Clean toilets and showers. Well stocked shop.

There are loads to do nearby. We drove up to Balmaha and from there, caught the boat to Balloch and spent a lovely day at the Aquarium. Really pretty return journey. Had the boat all to ourselves.

We also climbed Ben Lomond, what a killer, but the views are to die for. On our return to the tent we were too tired to cook, so ordered a pizza from the site shop which was promptly delivered to our tent half an hour later. Delicious!

Lots of people with boats/canoes on site. Great place to launch. Our kids took a dip in their wet suits (under close supervision - it's a deep loch!)

The site wasn't too busy mid week but as we left on the Friday it was really beginning to fill up and get quite noisy, so I'd avoid going at the weekends.

All in all, we would probably return. Just remember to bring you Avon Skin So Soft spray. The midges were bad when the wind dropped!

 A lovely campsite! Great staff, helpful and friendly. Great views and terrific walks nearby. At night it was incredible how many stars could be seen!

The serviced pitches are hardstanding and the gravel can be difficult to peg a tent.

We Walked about 6 miles along to and back where you can hire a kayak for a few hours inc life jacket and pop over to the small islands. I had never kayaked before but loved it.

Great shop on campsite too!

Will return for sure!

 The views from this site were spectacular. The road to get to this site is treacherous, watch out for the very steep hill.

The site was clean and the toilet facilities were new and clean.

The site has one very small play park that would only keep the kids entertained for 10 minutes.

The beach is very rocky and again not particularly kid friendly.

All in all this is a site geared towards adults and water sports enthusiasts. But one word of warning the midges will eat you alive.
