    Would highly recommend, peaceful and nice trails through the glen. Park up next to the stream for a magical sounding evening.

  • 5/5

    Parking avec point d'eau à l'entrée et toilettes propres gratuites.

  • 5/5

    The Woodlans Trust has a larger carpark, behind the visitir centre, best suited for vans. Piblic toilet open April to October, only during day. Fresh water tap available. As a Charity, they seek donations (I would say £5 minimum per parkup), to help maintain the woods etc. A very good almost level surface. Plenty walks for all levels of ability.

    Nuit parfaitement calme. Peu de véhicules. Nombreux départs de rando dont un parcours très interressant pour les enfants (jeux, questions…). Point d’eau potable accessible devant le visitor center, robinet equipé d’un adaptateur.

  • 4/5

    Un grand parking légèrement en retrait de la route. Nuit calme, peu de voiture la nuit. Bruit apaisant de la rivière. Toilettes ouvertes pendant les heures d’ouverture du centre.

  • 5/5

    Superbe endroit pour dormir et se promener. Départ de balade très sympa. Nuit très calme. Robinet d'eau accessible en permanence à l'entrée du parking. Un seul toilette dans le visitor center.

  • 5/5

    superbe endroit pour passer la nuit, soleil couchant ,calme. le bruit de la route n'est vraiment pas gênant et celui du ruisseau est agréable.

  • 4/5

    Beautiful spot, the sound of the stream was enchanting. Toilet closed at 4pm when the information centre closed. There is a way they could lock the centre up securely but leave the toilet unlocked but I guess they chose not to do this because they’ve had trouble around the lakes with people using public toilets for illicit activities.

    Wir haben hier eine ruhige Nacht verbracht, nur das Rauschen des Flusses war zu hören. Wenn das Besucherzentrum geöffnet hat, kann man dort die Toilette nutzen. Ausgang für Wandertouren. Wir sind mit dem Hund eine kleine Runde gelaufen.

    Spent a quiet night here, some lovely walks

  • 4/5

    Great little spot lovely and peaceful the dogs love the walks woods, waterfalls et cetera my only complaint was there was no rubbish bins for dog waste. All ordinary waste so take a bin bag

  • 5/5

    Parked during the day (and would make a lovely spot for overnight also). Lots of hiking routes accessible. Visitor centre only open March-September. Pub/tea room nearby.

  • 5/5

    Beautiful peaceful place. Stayed here for the night. Lots of dog walkers. Not a sound during the night. A small piece of heaven.

  • 5/5

    Muy buen lugar para pasar la noche. Si llevas una autocaravana grande, es mejor aparcarla en el lado izquierdo de la entrada, el terreno es mucho más adecuado y recto. Los baños están abiertos de 10-17h (aunque hoy a las 8:00h ya estaban abiertos) A tan solo 15 minutos andando encontraréis el Byre Inn, un gran descubrimiento para tomarte algo al lado del fuego y comer con buena música

  • 5/5

    Spot calme et spacieux. Les toilettes sont très propres. Des départs de balades autour du site. Le terrain est plat ce qui est super! Le bruit de la route est assourdi par la hauteur.

  • 5/5

    Heerlijk rustige plek achter bezoekerscentrum. Toilet tot 21.00 open, buiten watertappunt. Veel fraaie wandelingen in de buurt. Kabbelend beekje achter ons.

  • 5/5

    tip top calme propre et gratuit

  • 5/5

    parked in small area up the track to the left of the information centre, with 2 other vans . quiet as away from the road. toilet not open at night. lots of insects so take precautions as necessary.

  • 5/5

    nous n'y avons pas dormi mais nous nous sommes arrêtés pour prendre de l'eau. robinet à bon débit. impecable

  • 5/5

    Great location, just off the road but it was very quiet. It was well maintained, no litter. Full of birdlife, woke up to the sounds of a woodpecker and lots of different birds. All in all an great site for our first parkup.

  • 5/5

    Centre is closed for the winter, but carpark is open. very quiet! Tap by entrance is on, so was able to top the water up!

  • 5/5

    Nice quiet spot, with lots of walks starting from the car park. Great to have facilities as well. Upper part of the car park is nice a flat and great for out campervan.

  • 5/5

    Very good and large parking area. quite over night stay. no signs and free to park day and night.

  • 5/5

    Food flat surface straight ahead from the entrance where there is also a water tap. Very quiet. Not a special view but very practical for the evening and quiet compared to the spots by the loch.

  • 4/5

    Beautiful and quiet spot, spoke to rangers at the loch and definitely okay to stay here and the lay-bys in a van :) lots of spaces further up the top (more level too) However, would advise avoiding June-august as the midges here are horrendous, shame the blighters ruined this stay for us as it is so lovely besides that!

  • 5/5

    Lovely spot. Clean toilet in info centre open 09.00 to 17.00. Fresh water tap at entrance/exit. Lovely welcoming lady from info centre was happy for us to stay for 2 nights. No mention of permits etc. Great walks, bike rides. Although very steep! Brilliant on electric mountain bike though. Happy days.

  • 5/5

    Excellent stop off spot. Nice and secluded behind the Info centre with waterfalls behind

  • 3/5

    Only 1 other camper so we managed to get onto the flat land in the first section of the car park, further in is not.lwvel at all. Facilities close after 5pm, and no bin (that we could find). A bit of road noise during the night but manageable.

  • 5/5

    Toilets close in October for the winter, however I met the managers wife and she very kindly said they don’t mind people staying and they shouldn’t be bothered. However if you stay for more than a few nights in the busy season they may ask you to move on.

  • 4/5

    Great location. Parked on new, very flat parking area behind the new visitor centre. Lovely, babbling brook in the trees but also lools like there is a water tap by entrance, which we didn't need to use. Very quiet.

  • 5/5

    Ce parking est à préférer à celui directement au bord du Loch. La partie supérieure est très calme la nuit et presque de niveau. Les toilettes du Visitor centre sont effectivement accessibles. Surtout un grand nombre de balades ont leur départ ici : arrivés le soir, nous étions à pied d’œuvre le lendemain pour faire un super entre Meadow et collines. Seul regret : impossible d’accéder à pied au rives du Loch sans marcher sur la route très étroite.

  • 4/5

    Muy buen sitio y tranquilo para pernocta. Peña que por culpa de los mosquitos tuvimos que marcharnos.

  • 5/5

    Parking de randonnées, avec des toilettes et un point d'eau. Simple mais efficace. Ne pas hésiter à se garer juste derrière le centre d'information, car il y a du passage en journée, mais les gens restent principalement sur le parking le long de la route.

  • 5/5

    Sehr ruhig. immer ein bisschen wind. toller zugang zu den Wanderwegen!

  • 5/5

    Haben hier ruhig übernachtet. Kostenfrei und ohne Permit. Wifi funktioniert im Informationscenter.

  • 5/5

    Idéal pour passer la nuit. Le lieu est très calme et nous étions seuls sur ce grand parking. Toilettes du centre d’information.

  • 4/5

    Un coin calme et sympathique. toilettes en journée, robinet d'eau à l'extérieur. Départ de nombreuses randonnées de différentes longueurs. Très bon spot pour une nuit ou plus.

  • 4/5

    Un coin qui parait calme.

  • 4/5

    Lots of space. Nice area beside stream. Busy in morning with a lot of walkers.

  • 5/5

    Nuit super tranquille. Il y a un robinet pour l'eau. Nombreuses randonnées.

  • 4/5

    Parking herbeux très calme au bord de la rivière à l'arrière du point d'information.

  • 4/5

    Lovely spot and great tourist info. But you now need a permit to stay overnight during summer season. Permits available on line but best by phone.
