Idyllic
Booking this site was straightforward, phone call then booking form on website with deposit paid via BACS. I would have appreciated an email to confirm receipt of funds and remaining balance for my own records but that's the only negative. On arrival, we were warmly welcomed and shown our pitch and generally advised as to the layout. A little information sheet was also handed to us.
The site appeared to be well thought out with roomy pitches, 5 CL and 5 private. EHU and water was supplied to each pitch. Nice little information hut situated in the lower part of the site which contains leaflets, menu's for local eating establishments, book swap, washing machine and dishwasher paid for via honesty box. We didn't use them but great idea for anyone stopping longer. We visited the Kelpies and Falkirk Wheel, 15/20 mins drive from site. We walked from site down to Plean Country Park, lovely for picnics, dog walks and a bit of local history. The quiet, sedate ambience of the site was welcomed by us and we were surprised to hear no road noise really as it's close proximity to major road networks. We were blessed with the weather in the main and also kept entertained by watching the cattle frolic around the field next to our pitch interacting with the horses in the next field. I only heard the cows moo once or twice, they were obviously chilled out. The morning wake up call from a pheasant or grouse made us giggle as it was as regular as clockwork, about 7.30am. The bathroom facilities were clean and perfectly adequate located at the top of the site up some steps, the elsan point was in this vicinity also and whilst ok for the fit and able, not the easiest to access if you have mobility issues. The site owner is happy help with loo emptying if required as they're aware for some, the steps are difficult. We will recommend this site and hopefully visit again.
