  • Family-run holiday park at St Cyrus, just off the A92 in Angus
  • St Cyrus Beach 15 minutes’ walk; Dunnottar Castle 20 minutes’ drive
  • Well-maintained site; playground, shop and pub within 10 minutes’ walk
Venturing north to drive the North Coast 500 or staying around to explore more of the Angus region? Either way, family-run (and friendly) Ecclesgreig Holiday Park makes a handy base for short stops or longer getaways. It’s set in the small coastal village of St Cyrus between Aberdeen and Dundee (both about 45 minutes’ drive), with easy access to the main north-south A92. If you’re staying around for a while, you’ll have time to find the sandy beaches just 15 minutes’ walk away, and follow the wildlife walks starting right from the pitches. You can also keep the kids occupied at the Lochside Playpark (10 minutes’ walk), where there’s a bowling green and astroturf pitch for ball games as well as climbing frames. There’s a small essentials shop in St Cyrus, which also has a popular pub (10 minutes), where you can grab a pint and a bite, or they’ll also deliver your favourite takeaway if you don’t want to stir from your pitch. For bigger shopping expeditions, seaside Montrose (15 minutes’ drive) has several large supermarkets as well as numerous cafés, pubs and restaurants. The amenities on site include toilets, a shower block, a launderette and drying room, as well as a handy covered terrace in case the weather isn’t playing ball.

Electric grass and gravel pitch

Liked Lovely, peaceful, well kept site.
New facilities block kept very clean.
Lovely beach is 25 mins away walkable down a steep managed path. Or take the car and all your accessories to the Nature reserve car park.
Ongoing additions , trees , bushes, wind shelters / mounds will all help with the wind protection.
Nearby Montrose only 15mins away on hourly Aberdeen to Dundee service.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Very nice and separated pitches, very clean and well looked after holiday park with clean amenities such as the showers and washing area.

Disliked The food truck that came one day took over the whole sitting and bbq are with all their stuff dumped on the tables plus they stayed all night after they finished serving food at the area which was a bit selfish.

Mark S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric grass and gravel pitch

Liked Beautiful site, very well maintained and lovely staff. We stayed in a pitch between the new luxury pods which was in front of a lovely playground, this pitch would be perfect for people with kids, there's also a lovely bbq hut just along from it for all to use. The new toilet/shower and laundry block is cracking and very clean, this also have a great communal sitting area and bbq for all to use. We would highly recommend this site and only a few miles outside Montrose, great for shopping with a Lidls, Aldi and a large Tesco.
The site also has static caravans and luxury glamping pods with hot tubs you can hire via Airb&b, as we were at the end of our trip, we decided to rent a luxpod and stay another two nights.

Disliked Nothing to dislike about this place.
No WiFi, but not an issue for us as there's a good phone signal.

Local attractions

St Cyrus National Nature Reserve (15 minutes’ walk) is a smashing spot for (hopefully) spotting skylarks and rare peregrine falcons, paddling in the North Sea and following trails through ever-shifting sand dunes. If you’re keen to see more birds, it’s a short hop to the Montrose Basin Visitor Centre (15 minutes’ drive) for the chance to spy pink-footed geese and kingfishers; there’s another sandy beach close by for summer swims. If the kids are not keen on getting in the sea, there’s an outdoor pool at Stonehaven (25 minutes), and if the weather turns bad, there’s a century’s worth of planes to be seen in hangars at Montrose Air Station Heritage Centre (10 minutes). Wait until the skies are clear before you visit legendary Dunnottar Castle (20 minutes), as its dramatic setting high on sea cliffs means it closes when it’s windy. An alternative is the 18th-century House of Dun (15 minutes), where you can learn about local life in the folk museum and tour ornate rooms and formal gardens. And Fettercairn Distillery (20 minutes) is open for tours and tasting, so you can pick up single malt as a Scottish souvenir.
