 I was motorcycling a four legged route called the Crieff Cloverleaf, so this site was a prefect place to stay for those four rides. I booked in on a Monday and out on a Saturday* Take Note!
This is a growing site with a large number of activities available to guests and also has a cycle store on site, a pump track and an MTB adventure trail.
I wanted to book a woodland pitch but they are only available Mon to Fri or weekends, my overstay into the weekend meant I was given a pitch in Lower Meadow. That name overstates what is in fact an area no bigger than a horses paddock or a large back lawn.
It also has a path running down one edge which is frequently used by the bike riders. That said there was plenty of room for six or seven sensibly spaced tents and while I was there first a couple of guys stayed, each with their own tent and then on another night a young couple, so there is room but it ain't a meadow.
During the day there is a really well stocked shop open there is also a cafe open several times a week that serves really tasty food. Well I had to check it, didn't I?
After hours apart form the occasional MTB rider the site is very quiet with a lot of wildlife, running, hopping and flying about the place.
The washing up area is good, pretty standard outdoor slightly rustic but there is always hot water and also sponges and washing up liquid if you need them.
The toilet and shower facilities are excellent and seemed always to be clean. With the help of the site users adhering to the few polite signs there are around.
However. Two things to note. You must leave you car or motorcycle in the car park, which could mean a long walk back. You are allowed to unload close to camp but then the vehicle must be put in the car park. As I was in lower meadow I was less than a minutes walk from my bike but there was a daily rattle of cars running up and down to drop stuff off at their pitches.
The other thing and the reason I could not give a ten out of ten is because on the Friday afternoon when I was staying, the site suddenly filled up to overflowing with families.
Great, I would encourage as many people as possible to take their kids camping, but in my case it meant Lower Meadow suddenly had five or six tents with families and ten or eleven boisterous youngsters using the grass area that did not have tents on as a playground.
I had just finished a 250 mile motorbike ride around the Cairngorms (which are amazing) and was hopeful of a quiet night and early start, I foresaw no possibility of that happening with kids running about and parents breaking out the munchies and wine and so I packed up my kit and left at 6. 30pm Friday night for a very long ride home.
So, in conclusion. A really nice site, excellent facilities but one that gets extremely busy with families and children Friday to Sunday. I would go back again, but only if I was checking in Sunday / Monday night and leaving on Friday morning.

We loved the location - we were in the Mill Pond above the High Meadow. (We booked the High Meadow, but there were no pitches left by the time we got there).
We especially loved that we could have a fire. My little girl also really enjoyed it, especially the rope swing and the stream in the forest at the top of the hill.
I would say that the toilets and washing up facilities could have been a bit better, especially when paying £15 per night per adult. And it was much busier than I expected!
I didn't realise the Croft was a hub for mountain bikers! There was a lot of noise, hustle and bustle around the shop and restaurant area, with a lot of people camping really close to one another. I'm really glad we weren't there as it was noisy.
Also, there was a wedding on Monday night, so or evening wasn't as quiet and relaxing as we'd hoped for! Thankfully the music went off just after 11pm.

Great site with all the amenities you could need.
Only negative point related to showers, very small cubicles (although hot and powerful enough). Shower booking system not really working and respected by all campers.

This has been my first visit to a camp site for a number f years as I love to wild camp. Unfortunately, because of disability, my days if wild camping are over. Never mind. At Comrie Croft I have found a camp site that is really geared up for disabled campers. The staff all go above and beyond to make your visit a memorable one and I should know. I arrived on the Tuesday, got woken in the middle of the night by the mother and father of a thunder and lightning storm and by 1030 the following day the wind was gusting to 80mph. Once the wind got up the staff moved like lightning themselves and they collapsed my tent and lashed it down for me. The site administration then put me up overnight in the hostel at no extra charge. (The hostel is also well worth a visit BTW). I went to the tea shop for my breakfast and by the time I had finished the staff had re-erected my tent for me. The tea shop caters mostly for vegetarians although their mat pie is delicious and you can get a bacon butty etc. The cakes are superb and the chef makes the food on site and I am looking forward to seeing a copy of her cookbook when she has finished getting it together. The level of professionalism throughout and the friendliness of the staff simply cannot be overstated. The farm shop is limited but is still worth a go and I used it to top up my veggies and to buy fresh rolls. There is an 11pm curfew on noise and even when there is a wedding on they have a silent disco. It is a dog friendly site and if you want a fire or a bbq then there are fire bowls which are available to use. Because of my disabilities I camped in the Lower Meadow but there are further places higher up including a wooded area to camp in. I entertained my grandson over one weekend and I did not see him. He hired a bike from the on site bike shop and that was him. There are 3 bike trails depending on ability and there is even a bike for those less able to cycle up hills etc. So is ideal for someone such as myself. The site is so good that I have booked to go back their twice next year.

We have stayed here 3 times now and love it. We twice hired a Kata and the third time took our own tent which we pitched in the low meadow. I loved the chilled out feel of this site. Well behaved dogs came visiting the tents not tied up on short leads like most sites prefer. Most use the supplied Firepit to sit by with family and friends having a leisurely drink. There didn't appear to be 'curfews' to follow here, just common sense and decency. The facilities are perfect just as required. From the katas the toilet block is only a 2 min walk through the woods in cut out tracks.
The katas are extremely comfortable and spacious with a large lounging area to chill as a family and play board games when the weather was inclement.

We stayed for a weekend in the lower meadow. A really lovely site, fire pits available to use and you can buy wood to burn from the shop at a very reasonable price. A really nice flat field. Not a particularly noisy site but it's not as restrictive as some I've visited. The shop is basic but adequate and there's a rather nice café on site too. Nice central location to explore the area. There's lots of good walking in the area too.

Great site for families, several different areas to pitch, we were in Low Meadow which has 11 pitches (allegedly) but on enquiring if I could take 2 small tents rather than my large tent I was told no it only had 11 pitches on low meadow and they were full. So was surprised to find 15 tents pitches on the 11 pitches.
Other members of forum were pitched in woodlands which has 12 individual pitches nestled between the trees, access is up a very steep hill and although cars allowed to drop off equipment etc it can still be a trek to pitches.
There are 3 showers and 4 toilets(maybe another 2 toilets in reception) a bit tired looking but clean. A lovely tearoom on site worth a visit too.
It is a stunning location and is a haven for cyclists as it has mountain bike trails and kids bike area too, (you can also hire bikes). It was fantastic to see so many kids running about the woods and fields using their imaginations, as it seems a safe family site.
They also have Katha's (swedish teepee type structures) for hire, which looked really good and maybe worth a winter visit as they have lovely wee stoves inside them.
Hopefully I will get to return to this lovely site.

This is really a follow up from my previous visit to this site. I am pleased to say it is every bit as good as I remember it!
The only hiccup we had (as a group) because we did not book as a group we were spread out over the pitches. To make things worse, some new staff were on and one or two of our group were put on pitches we hadnt booked on. A minor distraction for us but a situation which should improve as the new staff 'bed in'.
The cafe on site still serves great home baking!
I have only knocked off a couple of points because of the problems with the pitch allocations.
I was on pitch one which was probably the poorest in terms of location, slope and size. It didn't bother me as my cook tent was further up at Krazy's pitch. Being down on the low meadow first time, it was a bit odd climbing up and down hills a few times to get gear to the pitch and if we were going back as a group I think the top pitches would be a better option.
All in all a great site in a great location with caring staff. What more can you ask for really.
Ps there is a new composting toilet being built in the top meadow which should relieve congestion a bit!

We are just back from this amazing site. We opted for a woodland pitch and were not disappointed. We were nestled in the woods but still close to the facilities and most importantly the bike park. My 11 yr old had an absolute ball and disappeared at every opportunity to practice his skills. The only slight issue was the number of unsupervised wee ones playing in there - I'm all for them having fun but it was dangerous at times with kids going the wrong way up a run and cutting across tracks.
We were only there a couple of days but exhausted by the end between the bike park, blue mountain bike trail and walks in the woods. The highlight for my son was the campfires. Each woodland pitch has a fire pit and we cooked on the campfire morning and night. If you are coming as a group the high or low meadows seem to be the place to be.
The staff were friendly and went out of their way to help. We had an introduction to campfires by one guy! They were happy to answer any queries. The cafe on site has a basic selection of soups, sandwiches and cakes - I'd recommend the Victoria sponge!
The only thing to be aware of is the lack of toilet/shower facilities. A total of 4 toilets and 3 showers which led to queues at busy times. They weren't the cleanest either. To be honest it didn't really bother us and it didn't detract from the overall experience.
