The check in was very friendly and helpful and the staff was brilliant. Lovely and large pitches, immaculate site and very peaceful! We were very lucky that it wasnt fully booked which made it even more relaxing for us but we will definitely be back!
Lovely site with friendly staff
Lovely site with friendly staff. Facilities are very clean and tidy. We used the local bus to visit Inverness which is a lovely city to explore. We would thoroughly recommend this site and look forward to staying there again in the future.

Fabulous site
Just stayed 4 nights here-the reception from Sarah and Joe was friendly and efficient..What a lovely couple. The site was well laid out, well maintained and tidy..
Even though it was Jublilee weekend we were able to travel by bus from just outside the site - No 2 - into the city. The people are so friendly and the bus driver even volunteered to drop us back to the site entrance on our return journey..Inverness is a pretty place with the lovely walks along the river, and a plethora of eating venues..the castle is shut at the moment -june2022-for renovation work.
Plenty of places to visit nearby.We went to Fort Augustus and found a fantastic restaurant The Boathouse..worth a visit..View overlooking Loch Ness from the dining area and the Salmon fillet was mouth watering....10/10.

Site could be better
Spent a few days at Culloden Moor in May whilst touring Scotland, entrance could be signed better, had to queue to get in, was aware sit wasn’t level but some effort had been made to level some pitches whereas others could have been made level easily but had been left with various degree and directions of slope. Grass area for tents was on a slope.
Facilities were ok and clean. Few nice walks around site and Culloden Moor battle field not far from site.
Great site & location
Great site overall, very peaceful and remote so perfect for the start and end of our NC500 trip.
Most hardstading pitches aren’t level and some really aren’t acceptable, especially down towards the tent pitch & childrens play area. We travel in a small VW campervan so don’t have the luxury of being able to carry levelling ramps. We saw motorhomes with ramps that still weren’t level, so be aware of this when booking.
I’m not sure why some of the roads on site are now permanently fenced off, forcing you to drive around the entire of the site when trying to access or leave your pitch. It seems really odd and just adds to unnecessary traffic around the site when the existing layout appeared to work well.
Similarly, to the new fences are in weird positions and unless you walk in the opposite direction to the toilets / showers and dishwashing areas, to then walk back on yourself through a gap, you need to cut across a grass area which makes no sense when the original path has been fenced off.
I’m sure there’s a reason for the added fences and layout but it made no sense to us and was quite frustrating when carrying the washing up!
Why no WiFi?
This is a very well run, peaceful site set in beautiful countryside only six miles from the capital of the Highlands, Inverness. The wardens are very friendly and maintain the site to a very high standard. Although many pitches are sloping caravaners and motorhomers all seemed to cope easily using ramps.
On arrival the warden was very welcoming and placed great emphasis on the 5mph speed limit around the site which we found very encouraging. Despite this we noted many instances of the limit being flagrantly ignored. What more can the Club do to stop these idiots?
The complete absence of WiFi is, I feel, a distinct disadvantage and needs to be rectified. Although my smartphone gave good 4G internet access it is disappointing that I was unable to utilise my annual subscription to the Club’s WiFi.
That said this is however an excellent site and we would be happy to return despite the absence of WiFi .
A really good experience
This is a very pleasant site with helpful staff and a very high standard of cleanliness. Some of the pitches are just a bit too sloping for motorhomes, but it’s a lovely spot and ideal for setting of to or returning from the NC500. Would highly recommend it and would have no hesitation in returning.
Excellent club site
Wardens were very professional, conscientious, courteous and went above and beyond especially when we had to return early home due to unforeseen hospitalisation of a family Member. The grounds and facilities were spotless and could not fault sight or the team.
very quiet and peaceful and dog walking facilities excellent.

What a difference!
If you haven't been to this lovely site for a couple of years or so then you should definitely make a return visit. Reviews from before lockdown were less than favourable and for good reason, the site was going downtown rapidly. But now, goodness what a difference! Neatly cut and manicured grass, plant tubs with actual plants and flowers in them, new painted fencing giving a neat and organised flow to the site, spotless facilities, a very well stocked information room with book exchange, a small shop in the neat reception offering basics you might have forgotten. The two tight corners on the site road have also been widened slightly to allow easier manoeuvring around the site for larger outfits. Joe, Sarah, Richard and Marcella, the site team, work tirelessly to keep the site running as smoothly as possible and always looking it's best. The new sign for the dog walk made by Joe always brings a smile when we drive past and it's these little touches that make this lovely site somewhere we return to year after year.
Will definitely be back!
Don’t know where the previous reviewer was staying but even though our stay must have overlapped with theirs we have certainly not found any reason to be unhappy.
Yes some of the pitches are a bit mossy but at the end of the day this is a caravan site and not a residential street in a perfectly manicured town. We would be disappointed if the Club insisted that all signs of nature were to be rubbed out.
Our stay has been lovely and we will definitely be returning to this great site.
