Brora
First site since joining club. We had an illness in the family which affected our booking but the staff were vey flexible and helpful with amending dates. Covid procedures were simple and effective and made us feel secure.Had anyone not been following them (as mentioned in another review ) i would have no problem reporting them. Lovely site, good location and great for walks along the beach, or in the local countryside. Good value for money. There was no option for not applicable on the review section “good for families” as it didnt apply to us but i put 5* so as not to reduce the overall rating
We must all follow the Rules
I like the Brora and being from the north stay there frequently. My wife and I were there this past week and enjoyed our stay. But it was disturbing to find on at least two occasions more than two people were in the toilet block on at least two occasions. Before I left this morning from my shower I heard two adults talking. When I challenged them I found one other person had a wrist band and two others did not. There was actually four of us in the block! My wife came across a similar situation on leaving a toilet cubicle she found two German females at the hand wash bowl who would not move but told her to wash her hands in one of the privacy cubicles. It is unfair to hardworking staff and other campers that such people break the rules and put the health of us northern residents at risk.

First time with the Club, first time Brora
As new members to the Club, this was also our first Club stay. All I can say is that we were very impressed with the site, its facilities, and the genuine hospitality of the staff. It was a great location for touring on our bikes, with a fantastic ride up Glen Loth across to fell running in the hills behind Brora. The beach, well, it is stunning, and we were also able to safely outdoor swim with wet suits, but to be honest did not need them. It is also a great location for getting to John O' Groats.

Visit to the Highlands October 2019
Great site with fantastic walking. We stayed in October with some lovely weather and the beach is glorious to walk along into Town whatever the weather. If I had had a wetsuit would have joined some others in swimming! The wardens are really helpful and the site easy to find.
Superb Brora
Other reviewers have accurately described the first class features of this site: great location, accessible beach, well managed pitches, clean facilities and superb wardens. Here are a few extra tips. 1. Clynelish Distillery: walk through the village, cross the A9 and straight ahead to the distillery for a tour, tasting, or a special purchase. Beyond are delightful road walks - left to Brora village or ahead to the Brora lakes. 2. Sam’s Spice in Brora - it’s rated no 2 for curry in Scotland and we agree. 3. Don’t just book for a single night at this site: it is worth more than a passing visit.
To the top
What a fantastic little site stayed only 1 night on the way to the top of Scotland . So quiet and great walk over the golf course to the beach . Village has all provisions so you can fill up fridge. The wardens are so friendly and helpful
NC500 via Brora
We stayed 2 nights at this lovely site. It is a small, peaceful site, kept spotless by the wardens and very pretty with the hanging baskets and other flower creations (loved the flowers on the tree stumps). We got up early both mornings to watch the sun rise from the beach. We walked into Brora once via the beach and the other via the road which was about a mile and half. We caught the bus from Brora into Golspie and this cost £10.20 for two of us return journey. The timetables at the bus stop are incorrect so look online for the timetable (Stagecoach service). They run approximately every hour. We did the Big Burn waterfall which was a lovely walk through the woods, sturdy footwear needed as quite muddy in places. We caught the bus back from Golspie and asked the bus driver if he could drop us off at the distillery junction, which he did, otherwise you have to get off in Brora and walk back to site. All in all a really nice stay on our continuing NC500 route.
Good stop off along the NC500
Stayed here for 3 nights in August 2019 on our way home from John O'Groats.
A well laid out site at the edge of the golf course. Most of the pitches around the site perimeter are hardstanding while those in the centre are grass. Most of the pitches are level and are of a good size.
Facilities are to the usual club standard. Only downside was the water pressure in the showers was a bit on the low side compared to others we have stayed on but that is out of the site's control.
A short walk across the golf course takes you onto the amazing beach and you are able to walk into Brora along it. There is a well stocked coop in the centre of the village as well as a number of other craft type shops and an ice cream parlour selling the locally made ice cream.
Golspie is about 8 miles down the road which seems to have a few more shops and an excellent fish and chip restaurant From here we did the Big Burn walk and also a walk around Loch Fleet.
Although not a large site, it is quite busy with people coming and going all of the time.
One thing to beware is the access to the site is over a narrow railway bridge and I'm not sure if some of the newer wider caravans would be able to access it.

Beautiful Brora
Stayed here in August for 6 nights. Lovely small site. Facilities are as you would expect from a Club site. Few minutes walk across the golf course and you are on a beautiful beach. It’s a nice walk into Brora along here. You can come back along the sand dunes by the golf course. Lots of campervans stay doing the North Coast 500. Very laid back. We climbed Ben Bhraggie, walked round the grounds of Dunrobin Castle at Golspie, Big Burn Walk and ate lots of Brora ice cream. It’s made in Brora, but there is a parlour in Golspie also. There is a coop in the village and also another on Golspie. There isn’t a play area for children but this wasn’t really an issue for ours. We had a great stay and it’s a good base to explore further North.
