CHRISTMAS AT FIRBANK – JUST PERFECT

We spent Christmas at this fantastic new CL set in a beautiful setting within Royal Deeside. It’s the perfect place for a quiet, relaxing peaceful getaway. The site is stunning in an amazing location with no road noise. As other reviewers have said the pitches are huge, mostly level with a convenient fresh water tap at each pitch. There is a service point for motorhomes to drive over, chemical waste disposal and the bonus of a heated toilet on site. Good access to fabulous walks, many direct from the site. The river is literally across the road and has benches dotted along the river bank. There is an abundance of nature and wildlife to be seen without even leaving the site. We went up the hill behind the site one night in the hope of seeing the Aurora Borealis as we had received an alert. It was literally pitch black but the track had good well maintained paths. We didn’t see the Northern Lights but a perfect place to photograph them should you be lucky enough to see them. The owners Archie & Justine are friendly and approachable. They made us feel very welcome and went out of their way to make our stay that extra bit special and memorable. They visited all the guests on Christmas day and gave them a selection of homemade cakes baked by Archie’s mum which were still warm and absolutely delicious. Such a thoughtful touch and thanks to Archie’s mum! A delightful stay, we loved everything about it and looking forward to returning. Highly recommended.

The owners sent out an email requesting I leave a review.  I don't often leave reviews and had difficulty, this was because I wasn't logged into CAMC. To leave a review follow the link in the email which takes you to Firbank's page on CAMC website, log in, scroll down to the various tabs, click the Reviews tab and underneath is a red text line which says Review and rate this site. Clicking the other green box in the email "Submit Review" doesn't upload to CAMC. Hope this helps when leaving a review.
