Wonderful spot, reasonably level places to park, very peaceful and tranquil. Odd fisherman and dog walker go past but they didn’t disturb me. Bit confusing where the office was but a local pointed me in the right direction. Lots of wildlife around, saw a lovely red squirrel but missed the deer. Only downside for me was that the chemical disposal point and water are near the office but down a slight banking which was not so great for me to use as my mobility is not good. Some steps, even cut into the bank and perhaps a handrail would really help. Otherwise it is a place I would recommend and visit again if I’m ever back in that area.

Love this place

Brahan Estate
We've stayed here many, many times and it suits us down to the ground. Informal, quiet and peaceful. Excellent dog walks through the managed woods and easy access to the main routes north of Inverness. Lovely views across the field next to the site and we almost always see some deer wandering past at some point. Yes, there are some fishermen using the track and the CDP is some distance away but there is now a water tap next to the gate at the top of the site and as long as you remember to stop and empty the loo on the way in or out it's not a problem. This time we really mucked them about changing our booking several times due to family illness - not a problem at all and once we finally got there had a great stop-over. Looking forward to the next one.

Peaceful stopover in picturesque location

Brahan Estate
Lovely location for quiet stopover. Site facilities are very basic and spread out no EHU available. There is a water service point near the site by the large gate, but this is not immediately obvious. Black waste disposal and waste recycling is too far away to walk, so you do need to drive back to Estate Office. There are lovely walks available on site as this is a working Estate. Had nice curry from Chilli Masala in Dingwall only 5 minute drive away. We have used this site on two occasions in 2021 and would happily recommend and use again.

IT WAS FABULOUS

Brahan Estate
I was a little sceptical after reading some of the negative reviews on here. On arrival, a very friendly estate worker checked me in, I asked him about fresh water and waste and he told me exactly where it was and also pointed me in the direction of where the camping area was and told me to park where I wanted. We were only stopping for one night and there was only one other motorhome stopping who turned up much later. There was a long track with spaced out trees on one side and we were able to park in between these. The views across a field and mountains in the distance were stunning. I have no idea why the occasional walker or fishermen driving by would cause anyone a problem, it wasn’t a problem for us and we found it all very peaceful and relaxing. We had our bikes and went for a fabulous ride around the tracks and found a huge lake where there were a few fishermen in waders. It was a beautiful stopover and to experience staying there for £10 for one night was worth every penny to me and I would not hesitate to return or recommend it.
