 Practically perfect in every way.

A really lovely setting and reasonably priced.

Lovely clean showers and loos. Water available at the pitch.

If you have a back pitch you will need a long lead for the electric.

Would highly recommend 💙

 Really impressed with this camp site set in rural farmland,

Well organised and managed by the Site Warden.

Toilet blocks are kept clean and tidy, great showers.

Small shop with essentials on site.

Good having your water and electric all at your pitch.

Great spacious grass areas for the children to run around on with play park, swings climbing frames etc.

No road traffic noise.

Only 8 minutes drive in to Nairn.

Local co-op only 5 minutes away.

 We stayed at this site for 2 nights in May. It is a lovely clean pleasant site, well cared go by the owners.

Our booking in, was most pleasant, the staff being very accommodating. The pitch was clean, level hardstanding with hook up and water on site. We went for a standard pitch rather than a super pitch as our MoHo has an on board grey water tank.

The facilities were lovely & clean, every thing that you would need was in the modern cabin block.

In the adjacent field were 3 Highland Cows and 2 Alpacas. The cows especially were very friendly and came to the fence for a stroke, but beware of the horns, they move quickly if the cow turns its head.

We bought some burgers from the site shop, these came from a local farm and real were extremely delicious, we went back the day we left, we bought some more to take away with us.

Overall we cannot fault the site and would have no hesitation in stopping there again if we were in the area.

 Cycle camping touring.

Found this site on the web, initially intended to use the Nairn C&CC but this was more convenient for our route.

So handy location for us and unexpectedly it has a basic selection of food which was a bonus and especially the cold beer!

Very friendly manager.

It is a bit bare at the moment which would be an issue in poor weather. And don't lean bikes or put towels on the fencing - highland cows are very inquisitive (but cute).

Facilities are good, very clean.

 Wow! What can I say this campsite is by far the best I have ever stayed at. 5 stars for sure. Really good value for money.

Excellent facilities. Especially the disabled shower/toilet units.

Staff very helpful. Wonderful views and added bonus of Highland cows and Alpacas. Not forgetting the goat who thought he was an Alpaca.

Close to Nairn so easy to get to the beach and shops. Wish we could have stayed longer and also if it was nearer to home in Wales we would be spending more time there.

 By far and away the best campsite we have ever stayed on.

So good that we extended our stay and are still on site at the date of this review.

Spotlessly clean

Well maintained

Excellent facilities

Friendly staff and proprietor.

Great location, 5 minutes from Nairn town centre.

Would we come back

Oh yes

Reviewer: Pumpkintent 1 review from this member

 This is a lovely quite new campsite in a quiet location but still within a quick drive to the town in Nairn.

We camped on the grass opposite the lake, the pitch was lovely and flat and the pegs went in relatively easy.

The toilets were kept clean throughout our stay, and the site was immaculate with the bins regularly emptied. Water was easily obtained with taps available at most pitches.

There is a play area for children, and highland cows and alpacas too. Dogs are able to run off lead in a large secure fenced area around the pond.

There is a lovely Bothy for campers to shelter in in bad weather and a covered cooking area.

The only downside was a lack of shelter in the wind which made cooking challenging, and no site shop to get milk in the morning.

I would definitely stay here again, and would not hesitate to recommend it.

Reviewer: Gkkad 19 reviews from this member

 Excellent campsite in which we would have no hesitation returning to. Toilet facilities and showers have been done very well in the modular blocks.

Pitches are large, great TV signal and good mobile data with 3(10mb/s), which was better than the campsite WiFi at around 3mb/s.

Only one area of complaint that does need addressing, but easily fixed. There is no hose at the Elsan, making for one of the most disgusting units I have come across, even though it is a new and modern unit. Please get a hose to allow this to be rinsed down after emptying.

Other than that all perfect.

Reviewer: Iainad 1 review from this member

 Layout of the site was excellent, was quite puzzled as to why the third shower cubicle was locked.

Pitches were well laid out but they need to sort out the tent pitches, we were in pitch 9 and there was at least 6 tents in pitches 10 to 13
