Why stay here ...
Greenpark CL is a quiet, rural site set in a peaceful location on Royal Deeside, a favourite haunt of Royalty. The pitches are all hard standing, of a generous size and each serviced with 16 amp electricity, mains water tap and waste water disposal. Heated toilet and shower facilities, upgraded in 2012, are also available. Greenpark is an eco-friendly site and members must only use green toilet fluid when emptying cassettes.
Adults/children/pets are all welcome. Across the road from the site we have provided a 2 mile circular walk around the adjoining farmland and woodlands to help you enjoy the wildlife.
The site is approximately 2 miles from the town of Banchory, the gateway to the Dee Valley. The surrounding area has many delights to offer. It provides an excellent base from which to explore castles, mountains and coastlines, all within an hour's drive. Should you wish to leave the car behind, the public bus service can be accessed hourly approximately 100 yards from the site entrance.
There are many activities within easy reach to provide both a relaxing or an active day out - fishing on the River Dee or at the Raemoir Trout Fishery, golfing, walking, mountain biking, a visit to Banchory Museum, Woodend Arts Centre, Balmoral Castle or Lochnagar Distillery are only some of the possibilities. Aberdeenshire is known for its splendid local produce, and Banchory and the surrounding area has a variety of award winning restaurants and many tea rooms. A wide range of supermarkets, garden centres, independent and specialist shops can be found in the Town Centre and at Milton of Crathes, specialising in crafts, galleries, clothing, homewares and gifts.

Lovely location
We booked this CL for 2 nights and liked it so much we stayed longer, nice rural area, pitches are large but ramps required for most of the pitches. Facilities are good and toilets and showers are clean. David the owner is very nice and helpful, we managed to stay longer due to someone cancelling, it is a very busy site so best to book ahead if possible. Our only complaint regarding our stay would be that some dogs were loose at times and came near our motorhome and annoyed our dogs and some noise coming from other buildings , wigwam style chalets/ huts, apart from that we will return.
ten day holiday
first class site very clean and peacefull, all super pitchs great for dog walks will be back

Not to be missed
I was approaching this site from the North West so was worried about the mention of a narrow bridge to the left just before the site when coming in from the South. Don't worry if you decide to come in from A980 near Torphins. The route and the bridge is used by a service bus so is plenty wide enough. The site is excellent including the serviced pitches for which there is no extra charge.
Fabulous CL Site
This is a gorgeous CL site with generous pitches in a quiet location about 2.5 miles from Banchory. The site is shared with some wigwams and lodges but everything is well-spaced and it all looks really nice. The loos and showers were clean and fresh, and everything about the site was pleasant and well-kept. This is one of the best CL sites we have stayed on (and we have been to some really good ones) and we will definitely be back.
The perfect CL?
I haven't reviewed this site before, simply because of my selfishness and my desire to always get on it when I wanted. However, having got all my bookings for next year(2018) confirned, I will review this site. lol
Obviously, you can't please everyone, but the toilets are spacious, clean, and heated in winter. I believe that David has now installed a camera looking down on the wigwams, so any misbehaviour can be dealt with.
How anyone can complain about the fact that the site is shared with wigwams and lodges, defeats me. The site is VERY spacious and the individual pitches are large; there is plenty of space for the caravan, car, and awning.
The walk across the road from the site is ideal, and is almost level all the way round, and there are additional walks which can be added on to it. The area surrounding the site is beautiful, often in the evenings there is not a sound to be heard, except from the nearby river. On your doorstep, is the whole of Royal Deeside, affording many walks and lovely drives.
Is this the perfect CL? It has to be the bargain of the year at just £12. (I should whisper that in case David and Sheena have any ideas!!) lol
