Lovely site.

Pitrennie Mill
Found this place purely by chance as we needed access to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. Journey there was slightly longer than from our usual CL site but only by 10 mins. This site now gives me a chance to stopover when heading south. It is a lovely, quiet site and the owner is very helpful.

quiet site

Pitrennie Mill
We spent a week at this site which was flat and spacious. The electric mains point was restricted to one area of a large field but even then the caravans had plenty of space. The field was short grass which had been collected. The views over the fields was pleasant. The only fault we found was the very slow water tap, we put the aquaroll under the tap and left it for about 5min before it was full. For the price of £12 it was very good value. We found plenty to do in the area with National Trust properties and gardens and walks.and the coast. Would certainly stay again if in the area.

Pleasant Stay

Pitrennie Mill
This was a pleasant site for a short stay. There is a historic water maill no longer in use hence the name Pitrennie Mill.The dog walk did exist but was not ideal for our Springer Spaniel to stretch her legs as the walk was very limited. Apparently there is better dog walking in the forest about a mile away but we didn't go there. There were lovely views across open farmland to hills in the distance and we were fortunate enough to spot 2 Roe Deer leaping across the field in front of us as we were setting up. The camping area does have some hard standing near a building and the facilities but otherwise is all grass which was firm but would have benefitted from being mown.

Great site

Pitrennie Mill
This is a beautiful site set in wonderful scenery. The site is in an ideal place for visiting from Arbroath to Aberdeen, especially along the the east coast scenic route. Great views from the site across open fields in the east and hills in the west. The only reason it did not get a full 5 stars was the hookup points are not situated in the best place and the water pressure is very low (you could make a cup of tea while the aqua roll fills up). All this said I would be very happy to have a return visit.

Fabulous.

Pitrennie Mill
We were delighted with this CL. We stayed for 5 nights. When we arrived we had the pick of the field taken a central position in full sun. The straw harvest was in full flow with a combine harvester visible in the distance. Very quiet site with all the usual facilities plus information room with extension electric cable. The scenery around is stunning and we were happy to sit in the sun on site at times. The cycle on the back road into Stonehaven is pretty and the route is to be used by the Tour of Britain bike race in September. The race will come past the CL's driveway! Dunnottar castle is a must see as well, Golf courses at Montrose, Edzell and Stonehaven are easily reached. The viewpoint of Cairn O'Mount is close by. It was a real haven for us and we would highly recommend this CL.
