Absolutely fantastic experience. From the lovely baked oats and bread in the morning to the campfire cookout experience it really was a unique and special experience. We learned about foraging and what you can eat in the wild, how to build a campfire and how to whittle sticks to use for toasting fruit and marshmallows. The toilets and shower are spotless. There were only 2 other families there and that was at capacity so it was nice and quiet in the evenings. We really hope to come back and I can't recommend it enough. · via Google [Felix Hindahl (felix)](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/100275989975488371046/reviews) ★★★★★ A lovely place to stay! Very friendly owner and a nice and neat Bathroom with two toilets and a shower. You can choose between a tent spot on the grass or a more "wild camp spot" a bit further behind the house. I paid 15£ for one person, one tent and one bicycle. · via Google [Edward Scotcher](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/108489064513181638794/reviews) ★★★★★ A beautiful campsite, small and perfectly managed. The facilities are lovely, clean and modern. Libby is just the perfect host. Aside from one glamping pod it’s tents only which is a real treat - no ugly motorhomes and caravans here, thank goodness. · via Google [Paul Dawson](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/108264745599685040511/reviews) ★★★★★ Beautiful campsite very friendly and polite lady the camping area is very well kept and in a fantastic location really enjoying the peace and tranquility too :) · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x488474883f2c299b:0xcf32caa74ff56dc6!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** Near Gallowshill Community Sports Hub [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=57.4007750%2C-2.1575051) **Category** Beaches & Coastline **Guest rating** 4.6 / 5 (34 reviews) **Suitable for** All Ages **Setting** Outdoor **Good for children** Yes **Toilets on site** Yes **Destination** Ellon [More attractions in Ellon](https://staycation.co.uk/ellon/attractions) ★ 4.6 (34 reviews) [01358 761400](tel:01358761400) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Ellon **Plus Code** 9C9VCR2R+8X [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x488474883f2c299b:0xcf32caa74ff56dc6!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x488474883f2c299b:0xcf32caa74ff56dc6!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x488474883f2c299b:0xcf32caa74ff56dc6!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Ellon Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
