4/5
great park. caravan was spotless. Service at restaurant was excellent however main bar was a little understaffed to deal with demand. Staff coped very well.Location is great if you intend to drive everywhere. If you wish to walk to Elie, bring a torch and walk over field path. Alternative is to try and order taxi or walk 3 miles on a main road.Great kids pirate ship play area, and you are right next to the beach. What more could you need.

We normally visit with our tourer but on this occasion I brought my mum along and booked one of the static caravans. |Stayed in one of the Castaways in Nairn's way for 4 nights and brought the dog.|Lovely caravan. …

We stayed on the touring pitches, and it was great. Wash rooms and toilets have been renovated to a high standard and are very clean. There's some great dog walking fields, beaches, woods, and trails.Facilities are very good too small shop with all the essentials and cafe, restaurant and bar which is a bit on the dear side. Enjoyed my stay here and will return.

Stayed here for 2 nights in our roof top tent, hard standing with electric.Fab facilities and exceptionally clean. Lots of options from arcade, club house, 2 restaurants, and a play area.Stones throw from the beach and access to the Fife coastal path, and in the other direction access to neighbouring beach and a woodland area. Plenty of exploring to be done so will definitely be back.Dogs are welcome everywhere which was nice for us when eating out, and the staff where all welcoming and polite.

We stayed here for 2 weeks and loved it, it's an absolutely stunning location, with unbelievable views, that's the good points that got 4 stars, the bad points, really tight pitches, almost fell like your on to of your neighbours, people walking straight though pitches for quick access to the beach and clubhouse, and as for the cleanliness of the ablutions, well that was pretty non-existent which was a shame because they were lovely ablutions. Probably wouldn't go again, which is a shame because we did all love it. Ps the fishing is fantastic

Touring Pitches here are very disappointing, far too tightly packed in, too many un-level pitches, no real clear markings between pitches and the touring field just felt a bit hectic and not that well maintained. …
