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.

The place is immaculate, the ablutions have security coded doors so are only accessible to residents and the cleanliness is great. My niece and nephew visited one evening and had a great time in the play area and were super impressed the ice cream van even came round from the town and stopped right next to my pitch! Great campsite, definitely recommend a stay.

Lovely campsite with good facilities and in a great location, very peaceful and serene. Excellent walks and cycle tracks close by and Balmoral Castle only 8 miles away.

We had booked this site for 1 night as it was convenient for us to visit Balmoral. However the site and adjacent town were so lovely, and our pitch by the river was a delight, that we extended our stay to 4 nights and even then we were reluctant to leave. So many things to see and do in the area and great walks with the dog, and we thought Ballater itself was really nice. Definitely hope to return.

Having been devastated in the floods, the local community have done a brilliant job restoring this site. The pitches are first rate and the amenities block is amongst the best we have come across (yes, that includes Caravan and Motorhome Club sites). The staff are really helpful and lent us a step when part of our motorhome electrical wiring loom burnt out (don't ask). If you are wanting to visit this area don't even think about staying anywhere else.

Impressively clean and wonderful location . Not a moan just an observation, Pitch 17 had spasmodic tv reception if that is important to you . We loved it and will be back .
