The southern border of Ballater is formed by the River Dee, one of Scotland’s finest salmon rivers, and adjacent to the river lies Ballater Caravan Park. The touring park caters not only for caravans and motorhomes but also offers great facilities for camping. The park is located half of a mile from the centre of Ballater with its variety of shops and restaurants and just one quarter of a mile from the golf and bowling clubs. This quiet and beautiful location combined with so many facilities within easy walking distance makes the park very popular with its visitors, especially those using motorhomes.
The Caravan Park has 40 numbered hard standing touring pitches with electric hook up and 35 un-numbered grass pitches without electricity, for tents, campervans. They also have 7 grass pitches with electric hook-up available suitable for tents.

Very impressed from the outset - arrived late, but information was waiting for us to be picked up outside reception. I have camped all over the country and abroad and can honestly say I have never come across a tidier campsite - washroom facilities outstanding. Also... Very impressed from the outset - arrived late, but information was waiting for us to be picked up outside reception. I have camped all over the country and abroad and can honestly say I have never come across a tidier campsite - washroom facilities outstanding. Also very impressed that the management team do not cram in too many tents, leaving a feeling of space and plenty of room for children to play safely and to park cars.

The sound of the river is very relaxing, handy for the town shops, well run by friendly staff.

Been going there for years - favourite site . Only very slight niggle is the sleeping policemen, too many and too high ( my campervan hates them ) But hey , that won't keep me away !

A lovely site with clean facilities. It was packed when we went due to school hols, but everyone was considerate and there was no crazy noise after 10. Ideal for the town which had decent pubs and restaurants. Handy for walks, its just a shame the bridges are still... A lovely site with clean facilities. It was packed when we went due to school hols, but everyone was considerate and there was no crazy noise after 10. Ideal for the town which had decent pubs and restaurants. Handy for walks, its just a shame the bridges are still down after the 2015 floods as this makes the circular walks into out and back affairs. That said, the bridges can be crossed if you scramble round the fencing (as I saw some lads do). Good cycling on the backroads and beautiful quiet scenery.

I went on Victoria weekend and got a last minute booking, the receptionist then managed to find me a space for the Saturday as well! The warden was really friendly! My only gripe is that the shower isn’t very strong and stopped half way through washing my hair!
