    No complaints, was very happy with everything. Really enjoyed the water sports.

    Really enjoyed the location, lovely caravan site,all the people were very friendly. It's the perfect place to unwind and relax, after a busy working week. No

    the location of the caravan park was a bit out of the way and limited walks around, most attractions were accessible within 30min-1h drive, yet caravan park was quite large. it is not located directly at the lake but on the hill where a bit of loch can be seen.

    the owners of the caravan couldn't be more helpful, they kept in touch with us before, during and after our stay. the caravan was great. It was warm and comfortable. Despite electricity outage due to the storm in the area as the caravan had gas heating and gas cooker we were able to manage ok. WiFi worked reasonably well.

    The sofa was not the most comfortable but i didnt spend a lot of time sitting in the caravan and the lock was a bit stiff but nothing that would stop me from returning as the facilities were exceptional

    was home from home and then some, had everything that you could image the welcome pack was a bonus

    nothing it was a perfect week of relaxation and we didnt want for anything.

    beautiful position in the holiday park the night time sunset view from the main window was phenomenal. the stars at night were amazing from that position too. the facilities were impeccable and the host was amazingly responsive during our stay. the facilities and equipment were fantastic the area is a conservation site for rabbits and birds which was a beautiful thing to wake up to every morning.

    That we can't book it for next summer as its already fully booked 😭

    Lovely caravan, a lot bigger than we were expecting, lovely site with plenty to do, was one of the best family holidays we've had, and the little welcome gifts were a lovely touch.

    Nothing to not like, except a bit far up the park for us especially if mobility is an issue.

    Lovely and homely, spotlessly clean.

    Not what we expected.

    We didn't receive the email telling us the code for the key safe until after we arrived and then we received it again the day we left. The caravan was dated and very personal. There wasn't enough cutlery in the kitchen and the toilet leaked.

    We liked the fact we could meet other family members who had booked a different caravan on the site.

    The beds were super uncomfortable. The utensils were really dirty. Do not park on the grass even when it is dry. We got a bollocking from neighbouring caravans for driving on the grass to park. So no good for people with mobility problems.

    The location was excellent.

    Was sent the wrong key code through Booking.com but a quick phone call to the caravan owner soon resolved the issue without any problem.

    The site is in such a rural and beautiful area and the scenery is stunning with lochs and forests in very close proximity.The park itself was clean and tidy with plenty of amenities and lots of things to keep you occupied, like archery, pitch and putt golf, shooting range, horse riding to name a few. The static caravan we stayed in was immaculate and very well stocked with anything you needed for your stay. Would highly recommend this caravan site.
