About Perth Racecourse Campervan and Caravan Site

Tucked into the scenic parklands of Scone Palace at Scotland's most northerly racecourse, this motorhome and caravan site offers 40 peaceful pitches with easy access to both Perth's cultural charms and Perthshire's open countryside. It's a short 10-minute drive into town for independent shops and cafes, yet you're surrounded by quiet strolls, riverside walks and cycle trails where dogs are welcome year-round.

The real draw is Scone Palace itself – a stunning Georgian Gothic pile where Scottish kings, including Macbeth and Robert the Bruce, were once crowned. Explore the antique-filled rooms, join a tour with the head gardener to see highlights like the Murray Star Maze and Laburnum Walkway, or simply wander the grounds. Facilities are fairly basic (there's no hot water), but the setting and location more than compensate for campers happy to keep things simple.

What visitors say

Jean Hamilton

A perfect wee camp site with great facilities and very well kept areas both inside and out. Staff very friendly and helpfull. However, this camp site is a little isolated and if not keen on walking you need to drive to get to shops ect. A nice restaurant next to the camp site that offers a range of breakfast, lunch (not bogbportions) and dinner eith a good range of drinks. If my next visit i was in 'transit' i would return. We did walk i into Perth and enjoyed a wee dram! 🥃🥃 👍🤞🤣

The site itself is well maintained, peaceful, and ideally located for our needs. However, having travelled a considerable distance from Northern Ireland, our experience was significantly affected by the attitude and approach of Graeme and Julie. Prior to our arrival, a friend attempted to check in on our behalf but was refused. We were subsequently advised by Graeme, "If you're not here by 8.30pm, don't bother turning up," despite the site's published Access Statement stating that arrivals between 8:00pm and 11:00pm would be provided with instructions at Reception. When I later raised this discrepancy, the Access Statement was initially dismissed as incorrect and only acknowledged after I produced a copy. Even then, no satisfactory explanation was given for the contradiction between the published guidance and the advice we had received. This inconsistency caused significant confusion and unnecessary stress that could have been avoided. As a result, my wife, who was 35 weeks pregnant, and I were left without accommodation and forced to find an alternative place to stay at short notice. When I raised these concerns the following day, I felt the focus was on justifying the decision rather than acknowledging its impact, with Graeme stating that he "could not understand our frustration." Despite the contradiction between the advice provided by staff and the site's own published Access Statement, our request for a refund was refused and met with laughter, which I found both disappointing and unprofessional given the circumstances. What should have been a straightforward and enjoyable stay became an unnecessarily stressful experience. Whilst the facilities and location were excellent, the customer service we received left a very disappointing first impression of the Camping and Caravanning Club.

Excellent site adjacent to Perth Racecourse and only a short drive from the delightful City of Perth. Also adjacent is Scone Palace with extensive grounds and gardens as well as the palace itself. The site was quite busy but well organised with lovely staff, the facilities are spotless and well maintained.

Super friendly host and a lovely site to stay on, they have the absolute best showers!! Dog friendly with access to walk around the neighbouring racecourse too. Restaurant/bar just outside the entrance. Very clean throughout and quiet overnight, some traffic noise but that's to be expected given it's convenient location just off the main road. Would absolutely stay again, all hard standing and no mud. Perfectly maintained.
