Our first time here,ideally situated for the village and only a short walk away.
The Falls of Dochart are spectacular.
The bridge in Killin is not for two way traffic so make sure the road is clear before you try to cross it unlike myself,not seeing a car halfway across and I had to reverse a few feet with caravan on tow.
Good friendly staff too.
Relaxing site
Meeting the usual high caravan club site with excellent and cheery staff. It's a pleasant walk into Killin either along the old railway line or along the top of the loch. The wildlife is delightful particularly the bird spotting which can be done from the pitches but is also enjoyable along all the local paths (a pair of binoculars is helpful). There is a variety of cafes and restaurants in Killin which can be reached on foot plus local shops for food and supplies. We couldn't get a tv or radio signal but this doesn't detract from our experience and we shall be looking to return to one of my favourite sites.

Great site
Beautifully kept site, very helpful and friendly wardens. Highlights: Kingfisher on the river bank and deer coming to drink from the river, fabulous walk along the head of Loch Tay. 22c also helped.

Lovely site
Lovely site with beautiful views. Well kept and clean wardens friendly. The Coach House across the road lovely place, nice meal and people friendly but we thought a little over priced for what it was.

A Poem...Contentment
Hills and a river, surrounded by trees the Maragowan site has access with ease
Quite and peaceful with time to unwind, just some passing traffic disturbing the sound
Buffered by trees, it's a rumble or so, just folk passing by on there journey they go
Destination unknown!...Another campsite...could be
But they've missed out on Killin and it's tranquility.

First visit here
This was our first visit to Maragowan but it won't be our last.The location is terrific for dog walks and amenities.Pitches are nicely situated and the site is very well maintained. Leaving time was four o clock on the day which suited us fine for walking the dog before we went. It helped that the weather was great for us too !!
Great Site
We were there last weekend, our 3rd visit to the site and once again had a terrific stay. The team there have it nailed.
Very clean and tidy facilities and tv hook up on some of the pitches is brill. You just need a long cable/ariel.
Great for walks and bikes and dogs. What more could you ask for. Oh yes a pub within walking distance that has good food and live music!!
Wonderful Site
Returned home on Saturday after 8 nights at this super site. We have stayed here many times over the last few years and we are never disappointed. The wardens are really friendly and helpful and the scenery and walks are amazing.
Lots of choice of places to eat and most are also dog friendly. The center of Killin is only a very short walk away and you have everything you need there with a supermarket, chemist, outdoor shop with canoe and bike hire, plus hotels, restaurants and cafes.
Looking forward to our next stay!
Fab Easter Break
Just returned from a great break at Maragowan.
Very pleasant check-in from the ladies on reception who explained the site, facilities etc. Well maintained shower/wc block and lovely steaming hot showers and decent sized cubicles. Site doesn't have shop, but did have a few essentials/odds-n-sods in the reception area. Very good information room with loads of leaders for local attractions, restaurants etc. Also noticed a leaflet for Tesco drop-off for shopping at nearby hotel - there's a Co-Op in town where you can get some shopping also. TV reception was good once aerial picked up site signal. Mobile reception was poor (O2) for those who can't do without it. Small play park for kids on site and short walk into town where there is a larger park. Killin itself is a nice small town with a few small shops, hotels, bank etc and is only a 5 min walk away.
Terrific base for exploring the area and towns of Aberfeldy and Pitlochry within easy reach as well as various others. Local scenery is wonderful.
All in all a very enjoyable weekend. We stay about 1 1/2 hours away, and we will definitely be returning to this site.
