Why stay here ...

Blair Drummond Caravan Park is a charming park set within and around the old walled garden of Blair Drummond House. The sheltered site is surrounded by fine mature trees and shrubs. Adjacent to the site old amenity woodland is under renovation and there are interesting paths with wonderful displays of rhododendrons and spring bulbs.

Blair Drummond Caravan Park is set within Blair Drummond Estate and there are many quiet private tracks and roads safe for walking and cycling with children. Quarry Loch, the adjacent River Teith and woodlands provide ample opportunity for bird watching.

Adjacent to the site Blair Drummond Safari Park houses Scotland's only elephants and is a brilliant day out. Caravan Park visitors can buy tickets allowing multiple visits for the cost of a standard ticket.

Another lovely week at Blair Drummond for the October week.

Just had another lovely week away at the Blair Drummond Caravan site. Weather was pretty good considering the time of year. The Halloweeen attraction at the Safari park was enjoyable - but a little scary for some of the younger kids ! Arrived a little earlier than normal so was able to get a great pitch within the walls, used the site provided TV box, and it worked a treat - regular signal within the walls wasnt great for our van for some reason ( no charge to use the equipment - just a returnable deposit ) Allan, one of the wardens there was helpful as always and good for a chat on whats happening locally. On our last day, the water mains near the site ruptured unfortunately which made things tricky for toilets/water etc - but totally outwith the sites control. Most people were just getting on with it....hopefully it got fixed quickly. Be warned - no mobile chip shop now, as its the end of the season! Looking forward to our next trip to Blair Drummond next year !

Great site and friendly staff

Just had a lovely week here, site was well laid out with nice walks in the woodland and to the “Smiddy” for lunch. Allan from the site was awesome..very helpful and made us feel very welcome. Blair Drummond safari tix are excellent value... my wife and child visited most days (sometimes twice per day). Fish and chip van visits on Friday and sat... get your orders in early as it can take a while to be delivered...but it’s well worth the wait. Will be booking again soon.

A lovely site that needs a little more attention

We stayed here three nights whilst touring in the area. The site is within a walled area and has a good feel to it. There are some trees within the site and it was pleasant to sit out. The play area is in a second section to the site, which is nice if one wants to avoid the (pleasant) noise of children enjoying themselves. However, we felt that the standard of cleaning was not up to the mark. By the evening, the facilities were starting to smell a little and look in need of a second cleaning. It wasn't up to the standard that we are used to in Club facilities. We also found that we had to use a long extension lead because the hook-up point next to our pitch was full. I am not sure why, but it would be a good idea to label the hookups with pitch numbers. Otherwise, this site is in an ideal location for exploring the area.

Great location, promising site - shame about the details

This is a Club affiliated site and if you come here fresh from using Club sites, the difference in standards and expectation is sadly noticeable. The location, close to Stirling and the Trossachs area could hardly be better, and access from the A84 is very easy, making it convenient to visit these places. The site lies in the beautiful Blair Drummond grounds, and is largely set in a most attractive walled area, which at first glance is very impressive. The welcome and information at Reception was fine, but selecting a pitch was not straightforward. Pitch demarcation was not consistent, and pitch sizes also varied quite a bit. The general condition of many pitches left a bit to be desired, being weedy with unkempt grass edges. The hard standing pitch we used was just that - very hard indeed, destroying a rock peg, and eventually a mallet, as we set up our awning. Some others appeared to have the same experience, whilst others had no problem. Some pitch refurbishment is need to provide users with a consistently good experience. unfortunately, the story continued in the shower/toilet block which at first glance appears modern, but on closer inspection is tired in many respects, and worse, appears poorly cleaned and maintained, with mould on shower cubicle skirting boards. Drainage in the showers was poor, leading to users standing in water running from the next door cubicle, and overall these facilities were inadequate both in number and quality, falling quite a bit short of general Club standards. TV reception is clearly indicated as poor, but the site does try to help by offering the free loan of Freeview boxes and connections, which is to be applauded. However, a number of the connection points on pitches were broken, and it is simply not good enough to tape on an additional connection to your neighbour's and try out a selection of cables till one is found which reaches. If you are going to persevere with this system, please repair/replace broken connections where necessary - that's what a proper business would do. Overall our stay here would have to judged as mixed. Great location, lovely surroundings, but let down by too many aspects of the facilities provided. If this site is to live up to its location, and justify its links with the Club, and as such, its prices, a good deal of improvement will have to be made. Sadly we do not plan to return until that has taken place.

An excellent site

We did an overnight stop here whilst travelling home - what a fabulous location! the peaceful walled garden location is lovely, and the facilities are the best. There are woodland walks in the estate, straight from the site, good helpful warden and everything immaculate and clean. just a short walk away is the Smiddy, a good farm-shop and restaurant - highly recommended!
