 We have been advised this site (formerly named Fortrose Caravan Park) is now under new ownership. We've been advised that the new owners plan to spend the winter making improvements to the site in order to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Beautiful situation with wonderful views over the Moray Firth £20 per night I think is a little excessive for the facilities provided whilst toilets & showers were reasonably clean the campsite seems a little run down, spent seven nights there the grass was not cut once and when it was last cut the grass was not collected. Hence we were continually fighting to keep our motorhome clean. On our last day there a fellow customer arrived and ended up cutting the grass himself, overall lovely location but could do with a bit of TLC and it would be a wonderful site.

We were really disappointed by this site and left after only one night.
Yes the views are lovely, as were the dolphins. But the facilities left a lot to be desired. Firstly they weren't heated, and we needed them to be! They we decidedly tired.
Whilst it wasn't the owners/managers fault there was a water main burst, which the owners/managers did know about. But it was their responsibility to know the showers were only producing cold water because of the reduced pressure. All that was needed was a notice pinned to the door. Instead I had the unpleasant experience of only finding out after I had taken all my clothes off and had stood waiting in a cold room for the hot water to come through & it didn't. I then got dressed and walked along the road to the other shower block and the owner drove past and waved! When I got there the process was repeated but this time no water came out! How did I find out about the burst pipe? A local man walking his dog told me! Yes I know this sounds funny, but in the cold and rain it isn't.
No we wouldn't come back here.

We arrived just after 1pm, greeted by a very friendly young man who showed us to our pitch, we were told we could get set up then report to the office to pay our fees. The site was clean, tidy very quiet & beautifully located for spectacular views over the Moray Firth. The shower block was always clean & even though there was only one shower in the block I only had to wait once in the three weeks we were there. The shops were just a short walk from the site (approx 1 mile) & the local shops stocked most of what we needed, there were supermarkets in Inverness which was about a 15minute drive. Channory Point is a short walk along the golf course & the Dolphins did not disappoint us, we had a number of days when we were able to watch them. I would not hesitate to recommend this site if you want a nice quite no frills clean pleasant & friendly place to stay.

Stayed here two nights. Had hoped to see dolphins but the weather was quite stormy and they didn't appear. The site was very good value at £20 a night for three adults and a toddler.
Pitched right by the beach with EHU. Fabulous views over Moray Firth. Free wifi available. Fortrose has a good Co-op and is walking distance away with a bank and other shops. Facilities are a bit dated but adequate. Owner friendly and helpful.
We would stay again.

We have just returned after touring Scotland and found this was a great stop over, the staff where very friendly and helpful, the site itself was very accommodating for all size units, they have just installed a new shower block which was great, toilet block was clean if a little outdated would use again.

The location of this site is just outstanding. We were pitched right next to the beach - the kids (5 and 8) loved it! Some reviews have mentioned the road that runs through it as maybe being an issue- but it was never for us. It is so quiet - there were hardly any cars. There was one shower in the toilet block which was not an issue as it as relatively quiet. (Not sure if there was another block further along). All very clean. 1 mile walk to chanonry point to see the Dolphins (although we went twice and never saw them). Would definitely recommend - and return.

This campsite is all about location, being situated right on the beach it has fantastic views over the Moray Firth ! All pitches are grass and some towards the reception end of the site were quite muddy ! The toilet & shower block is a bit dated but was kept clean ! There is a public road which runs through the middle of the site which we thought was a bit odd but it only seemed to be used by cars going to & from the adjacent golf course ! Chanory Point is about a 20 minute walk along the beach (or golf course) which is a must for dolphin watching as they come to within 10 feet of the beach ! Amazing! All in all it's a basic site in a stunning location we will definitely return

The site is on both sides of a minor public road, which is odd but was not a problem as traffic was very light. We would have some reservations, however, if we had young children with us.
Many of the pitches, which are all on grass, are directly by the Morray Firth shingle beach and is therefore ideal for dog walking.
On arrival a notice at reception asked us to phone and a young man duly appeared and checked us in. The toilet & shower block was clean, had plenty of hot water but only 1 small sized male shower which must be hopelessly inadequate when the site is busy. One reviewer mentions WiFi being available but we were not informed of this service. The £20 pitch fee (with EHU) struck us a rather full for what was available.

Stayed for 4 days over Easter £20 a night caravan x 2 adults. Free showers, free wi-fi, toilet block dated. But very clean. But stunning views. The dolphin's were active at chanory point. Richard the site attendant was very helpful and pushed us to the site edge for the best views. Owner, s are very friendly and help full too. I have been here a few times and enjoyed my stay. Good value for money, compared to the C. C. Club site at Rosemarie.
