Blair Castle Caravan Park is situated between the rolling hills of Cairngorms National Park. Here you camp in the southernmost tip of the national park, which forms part of the Scottish Highlands. This makes the camping site an ideal base for exploring this unique region.

Camping amidst green

This camping site is popular with families, older couples and keen walkers. Dogs are also welcome at this idyllic spot! Two dogs are allowed per camping pitch, provided they are kept on a leash.

Camping is very comfortable on the green country estate of Blair Castle. This is because the camping site is very spacious, as are the camping pitches. All pitches for motorhomes and caravans are partly paved and partly covered with grass. Extra large camping pitches are also available (eighteen metres long). You can pitch your tent on the large lawn in the centre of the camping site.

Accommodation

Hikers without camping gear can spend the night in a Camping Pod on the camping site. Would you like to rent accommodation for a bit longer in this location? If so, enjoy your stay in a luxury Woodland Lodge with all the trimmings.

Exercise and relaxation

Children can play outside and thoroughly enjoy themselves on this camping site. There is also a playground. In high season it is also possible to feed the deer or go on a pony ride. Children can head for the 'game room' to play pool, ping pong, or table football. In high season, lots of fun activities are organised for young and old. There are, for instance, guided tours of the estate on tractor or segway. The camping site has its own beauty centre. You can go there for a massage, haircut or beauty treatment.

Sehr schöner und Sauberer Campingplatz, mit überwiegend geschotterten Stellplätzen. Sehr nettes und freundliches Personal. Wasser, Strom und Abwasser hatten wir direkt am Platz. Sanitäranlagen waren immer sauber. Hunde sind gern geshen.

Travelling party: Young couple

Sehr saubere und gepflegte Sanitäranlagen. Sehr umsichtige Camper und somit extrem leise.
Auch ohne Reservierung bietet der Platz einen 24-Stunden Check-In.

Inspected annually

"Thanks to its location on the A9, this is a suitable transit campsite. But it's also great for a longer stay. Near the castle."
