At Glendaruel get close to nature and enjoy the outdoors what ever the weather. The mature Park woodland is home to Red Squirrels and abundant Bird life. It is great base for road and mountain biking. In 2016 Danny MacAskill enjoyed some challenges at Portavadie on Argyll's Secret Coast and Mark Beaumont cycled the Cowal Way which can be accessed from the Park. The Magnificent Benmore Botanic Garden is only a 20 miles drive.
Historic Attractions, Interesting Art Galleries and Outdoor Adventure are all on offer in the Cowal Area. Ferries to Bute, Kintyre and Gourock can all be reached within 30 minutes. Food Lovers will not be disappointed in the quality of Food from Argyll. Great fresh local produce to simply prepare yourself or eat out at a choice of excellent Restaurants and Cafes within a 20 minute drive. The park also appeals to families with young children.

Spoke on the phone with Annie who was very helpful as we had a tent that was slightly bigger than what they normally allow. Arrived and met Annie, again very obliging and helpful and would see her walking around checking in with everyone to make sure all was ok. Lovely peaceful site, not what my 2 youngsters are used to but really enjoyed it. We used it as a base to visit my older daughter working in Portavadie. Would definitely use it again if around that area.Thanks Annie
Everything about this campsite was above expectation. The location, facilities, and customer service were spot on. Quiet, friendly, clean, value for money and above all the perfect place for 5 days of rest and recuperation. And then there was Annie, who was the most amazing host! Nothing was any trouble and she made the holiday for us. We will definitely be going back, but next time for a week in one of the static caravans 😊
We booked Glendaruel on the recommendation of a friend and it didn’t disappoint. The location is stunning with amazing views everywhere you look and the park is immaculate with excellent facilities. The owner Annie was very friendly and welcoming and toldus lots about the area. Unfortunately on day one the rain came and didn’t stop and the forecast for the rest of the week was very poor. We decided to move on and Annie was very understanding and did not expect payment for another night even though we left at 3pm. We’ll try again and will definitely be back to enjoy this beautiful area.
A fantastic site and Annie was amazing. Highly recommended.
Glendaruel campsite is excellent value with staff who are second to none, the campsite is very clean and well maintained to a hight standard, very peaceful and fantastic walks with my two dogs.
We walked the Cowal way and spend a night at GCP. Beautiful site and friendly staff who got us some beers :-).
The campsite was nice and peaceful - perfect for a weekend stay. It had great facilities - an indoor kitchen equipped with toaster, kettle, small fridge, pots, pans, plates, bowls, utensils etc. There is a sink for doing dishes and also a laundry area. The toilets and shower area were really clean and always stocked with toilet paper & soap. There are lovely walks nearby. We had a great stay & will definitely return in the future!
On the whole we were really pleased, the beautiful surroundings and staff were so helpful. I got something in my eye and Annie came straight away with some eyewash which fortunately "did the trick" and a visit to A&E was no longer necessary. The site is spacious and surrounded by trees, hills and countryside where there are some great walks. Facilities are good but could do with some updating in showers. My husband commented there was no emergency pull cord in the disabled showerBut the staff were so helpful and lovely and we are looking forward to our next stay. DUNOON is only a 25 min drive away .
