Highland Gateway Glamping and Caravanning Reviews

Excellent site

The site was quite easy to find as used to live round the area Really pleased to have enclosed dog walk area Hot running water and warm toilets Really clean ns spaces were more than adequate made better by the fact that there was raised grass areas between pitches which provided safety as well as privacy will be definately be goin g back

Clean and quiet

The site was quiet & clean, with a gated area to let dogs off lead, which is lovely. We arrived at 6pm and it was very dark. Lighting on site is minimal, so take a torch. Anything more than lighting tripped the electric, which was a pain if you wanted to do something as simple as boil a kettle or prepare food. There seem to be lots of instructions about what you aren't allowed to do in both emails and signs across the site, and there seems to be an obsession with electricity consumption, which is great for the environment.

Perfect

Such a lovely place to stay, so peaceful and quiet. Beautiful views, as well as lovely walks and a very clean site. We have had a very relaxing weekend will definitely be booking again.

A lovely quiet site

A lovely location, with great views. The facilities were spotless, the owners were friendly and helpful.

Fabulous site

Small privately owned campsite. Lynn took time to come over and meet us, most friendly and helpful. Deliveries available from local takeaways. Great place to chill out away from the rat race, but does have free Wi-Fi. Will visit again if in the area.

Lovely

A lovely little site, perfectly situated for visiting The Kelpies, and The Falkirk Wheel. Lots of walks from the site for the dog, a little paddock where they can be off lead and play ball. We have a border collie, so this was somewhat essential 😂

Excellent

Had an excellent stay. Will definitely be back again and definitely recommend.

Hidden Gem

Wasn't sure about 10kw electricity allocation but we needn't have worried. It was explained clearly by the host and was more than enough for us. Great location, with great facilities and quiet. There were only 6 pitches and ample options for toilets, showers, waste. and a dog field too. Highly recommended.

A great site

A superb and well laid out campsite. Open aspect in the middle of the farming country with views of the hills and there were plenty of walks. The showers were spotless. The site is ideal for stopover or longer stays. Will definitely use again.

Fantastic site

What a lovely discovery! Fantastic small site, well located for Culross and many other interesting places. The 6 pitches are very generous, with fresh water, power and grey water disposal on every one. There is a great motorhome grey water dump and a clean chemical dump point. There are spotless toilets and showers and plenty of recycling bins. The owners are really friendly and their love of the site is reflected in the quality of the pitches and facilities. The site is dog friendly and there is a nice track at the entrance for dog walks. We will put this on our list for stop-offs and short breaks.

Great location near Edinburgh

The location in the middle of the field is just genius - nice views, clean air and lovely quiet countryside all around. In addition, the bathrooms were spatious and very clean and the site staff were very nice. If you are looking for a place to stat near Edinburgh/Stirling, look no further.

Excellent site

Excellent facilities, we enjoyed our stay, very peaceful. Would recommend it, enjoyed the walk to the village.

Relaxing overnight stay

We enjoyed our overnight stay prior to heading to the highland show. Clean facilities in a quiet rural setting and very welcoming. Would come back.

Pleasant and welcoming

The site is quite remote and SatNav wouldn't find it, but managed with Waze. Excellently laid out and toilets and showers were very clean. Plenty of space and separation. Remote location meant no risk of being disturbed.

First night

This was our first night away on our Scotland trip in a hired van. From start to finish was great - booking, arrival instructions, hook up and facilities. Liked that it was small and quiet. Great stop off from Kelpies on our way North.

Clean well looked after quiet with all necessary facilities provided

Lovely little campsite off the beaten track but with 5 star services. Next to a Right of Way allowing some beautiful country walks. Lynn, the owner, very helpful, knowledgeable & friendly. Just loved the tranquillity and the peace and quiet.

Very nice location

Very nice quiet location with all the facilities.

Isolated, cheap campsite

It was rather miserable to have to put our table & chairs on the gravel because the nice grass was kept for the end of the season. The power was cut off on our second day - we were only charging a fridge & devices. Additional power was available for purchase. There are a lot of signs but we didn't like the gravel. Lovely lady & cat.

Site's response

Thank you for your review, we try to minimise the use of signs but were forced to put some up due some guests not reading the terms & conditions or emails sent, you did say to me you didn't read emails. Our campsite is in central Scotland, 1 mile from the main trunk routes north & south, and near some world famous tourist sites such as the Falkirk Wheel & Kelpies which is 15 minutes away, so not sure why you describe it as isolated. Being from Australia you were maybe not familiar with the area? Our pitches are XL hardstanding & fully serviced, so loads of room on them, to be on the grass would infringe on the space of the next pitch down and reduce the space legally required for a fire break. There is a leisure area for guests with seats provided that is pure grass. The electric allocation should have been more than enough for what you have described so we are not too sure how you used so much?

Fabulously peaceful

A lovely, small and quiet site. Clean facilities. 2-3 miles from the motorway, so easily accessible. Lovely walks nearby.

Lovely site

Lovely site with great facilities and a lovely host. Will visit again.

Scotland trip

First time doing this little road trip around Scotland and this place was beautiful, clean and very welcoming. We will be back... Many thanks.

Fab!

Fab little site. Lovely owner. Very well organised and spotlessly clean. 5*.

Lovely campsite, would stay again

Lovely campsite, quiet and has everything you need.

Out of electric

We didn't realise the electric would go off as we hadn't read the email, so make sure you read all correspondence as this was our only source of heating. I would recommend a change and allow us to run over and then be charged by our original payment method. That would have stopped us from getting really cold during the storm. I was out at 4 o'clock as I thought I had van problems, but only to find it was cut off as we had used our allowed amount. Other than that, it was great.

Site's response

Ron, thank you for your review and glad you liked our campsite. It is not nice to be cold in the night, but the electric policy is stated clearly on our website and in 3 emails you receive before your arrival at the campsite. One email upon booking, another the day before your arrival and another the day of arrival. We are a small family-run campsite with only 6 pitches. The system you suggest would leave some guests open to leave in the morning without payment.

Great stopover

Stayed as an overnight stopover whilst travelling north in early winter. Location very convenient for major trunk roads. Small site with basic facilities (eg toilet block in portacabin), but everything immaculately clean and well presented. Communication from site owner was first class with a warm welcome. Some slight noise from the motorway, but not enough to affect a night's sleep. All-in-all, I would stay again, although not sure whether I would select it as a base for a main holiday.
