Hi everyone

Only just noticed this forum,
Just wondering if anyone knows any nice campsites in scotland. Have 3 kids used to camping, just need basic really, somewhere to pitch tent somewhere to wash kids and pots, pref near a beach, nothing too flashy we make our own entertainment.........need an offie close by to buy beer thats about it, just cheap and cheerful...any ideas
Thanks

Checkout the camping and Caravan club sites as well you pay a bit more but your usually guaranteed a decent site. Also the above link is also a great site with a brilliant forum as well.

Biggar.. it's great. It's council run and only cost us £10 a night. Kids took their bikes and spent the whole week going round the boating lake...plenty of other kids to play with and a playpark on site. £5 bought a family tickets for all day use of the boats on the lake and the tennis courts. Smashing wee cafe for bacon rolls and the golf clubhouse for meals and drinks at night, if you want to eat out.....all on site!! Biggar itself is fab, plenty of places to get takeaway or eat in, and a big playpark. We had a great holiday and will be back this summer.

Scotland is beautiful...but please please research the midge "issue" before you decide when & where to go. They can wreck a camping trip if you're unprepared.
