If Carlsberg Did CL's .......

I stayed here in August. A CL deserving the many accolades awarded over the years. Well laid out and a great central position in that part of Scotland. We chose the CL for it's proximity to 'The Wheel' and the Kelpies. I was given a pitch on the lower part of the CL, the 'commercial' part of the site, which turned out better for our family. Pitches there were more spacious, private, and easier to access on arrival, as the CL proper seemed to involve reversing your unit up a slope onto the pitch. Yards from the excellent information/washing machine shed. Oppsite the pitch was a fern-covered hill, and a play house, perfect for our little ones to explore. Craig seems to have thought of everything. We were three adults and two children and do not make use of loos and showers on sites, so I considered the £25 a night fee (including the wi-fi charge) excessive. Regarding the facilities, on having a 'nosey', as you do, they were spotless. The only downer on our pitch was the difficulty dragging the waste tank over the chippings, then up a steep grass bank to the disposal point, which, again, was spotless. Generally the whole site would be difficult for persons with impaired mobility. I'd use Carr's Hill again both as an overnight stop, being adjacent to several motorways, and a longer stay.

We'll be back

Knew we were onto a winner when we were driving down to our pitch and saw two roe deer grazing in the field next door. A lovely peaceful and well maintained site and the facilities are very clean The information hut was a great source of information about local sites and the welcome envelope you get on arrival is a brilliant idea. With the added bonus of a water supply to each pitch, this is one of our favourite sites and we will definitely be back as there is so much to see and do in the area. One thing we would do differently next time - book a massage in the treatment room! Never come across that before on a CL site :-) Although we didn't get to meet Grant and Gillian, they were very helpful with our booking, even though they were on holiday in Lanzarote at the time. Hope to meet you next time. Terry & Lucinda

VISITING THE KELPIES

We usually stay at mainstream Club sites but found Carr's Hill to be in a great location for our planned visit to The Kelpies (they are marvellous!) and the Falkirk Wheel. We realise now that there's lots more to see in that area - Stirling Castle, the Wallace Monument and more so definitely a good base. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful with the booking and we were very happy with the site for it's position, cleanliness and the treat of a tap on the pitch! Everything you need is provided in an envelope on arrival so a very easy start. It was also useful to have the WiFi on site - thank you! I would recommend without hesitation.

Nice

Nice larger than usual CL, Water on pitch which was a new and nice experience. Chemical disposal is right near the Toilet block which if your on the lower pitches is a long walk and climb especially if you have problems with dodgy joints. Owners do say if you need assistance then ask. Washing machine available in info hut, all facilities were clean. Ideal site for going to Falkirk wheel and kelpies.

Somewhere to stay

We were touring Scotland during August and we needed a stop off point between Berwick and Nairn. This seemed like an ideal spot and it was. Facilities are great and very clean. The information hut tells you everything you need to know and the welcome Pack fills in all the information about the site and where you are pitched if there is no one to greet you. For the 3 nights we were there we had terrific weather and has a base for this part of Scotland you cannot ask for better. We will now always consider this site when traveling north through Scotland.

Superb Value CL

We stayed here for two nights on our way up north. Aug 15th and 16th. As stated in other reviews, a great site. This CL has everything you get at Club site but much cheaper. Water tap on each level hard standing pitch. Toilets and Shower inc in fee and use of a washing machine for £3. All this for £16 a night in Aug 2017. Easy to get to from the motorway and easy to get to the Kelpies and Falkirk Wheel amongst many other attractions. Certainly an excellent CL. 5*.

An excellent site- one of the best.

We spent a great week here in July. The site was quiet and well maintained but near lots of places of interest that we were able to explore. Plenty of space for the children to run around as well.Toilet block was always clean and well maintained. The wifi was also very useful and the little extra we paid for it was worth it. We will definitely be returning. One word of advice- the ground was very hard for awning pegs, we had to buy extra strong ones to keep the awning up!

Perfect Site

Really enjoyed my stay at Carr's Hill. Perfect in every way. Friendly and pleasant people and everyone was very happy. Loads of little touches, like bird feeders and bird food, which made it a joy to be there. Fabulous views over stunning countryside. Have recommended to friends.

Setting the Standard...

The best CL we have ever stayed on!! More like a mini club site, with character, with individual hard standing, taps and electric points. Excellently spaced on a terraced site with an additional few pitches licence by the local authority also used. Again, large, well spaced and with taps & electrics. Fabulously clean toilets and shower - wife type does not use the showers on main club sites, but this one she did! Information room, washing machine, welcome pack, wifi if you want it - need I go on..... Excellently positioned to hit the central belt of Scotland with the two main cities within easy striking distance. But don't miss out with what is on the door step, Stirling, Banochburn, Falkirk Wheel & the Kelpies. We were also on Loch Lomand within the hour. Upon chatting to Grant he wanted to create the CL that they would want to use - up the standard and offer a viable and affordable alternative to the main Club Sites. Mission accomplished!!!
