  • Peaceful holiday park in the Angus Glens, 10 minutes' drive from Alyth
  • A 40-minute drive from the museums and attractions of Dundee
  • Pond, play area, 20 acres of woodland and excellently-kept amenities
You'll have an idea or three why this fab Scottish site is so popular even before you book. Your upcoming excellent location first: Perthshire's Nethercraig Holiday Park is in the stunning Angus Glens, within half an hour of Dundee and Blairgowie, and only a mile from spectacular strolls and first-rate birdwatching at Loch of Lintrathen. If you care to stretch your legs still futher, it's a 10-minute drive from the park to the small town of Alyth, which is on the 65-mile circular Cateran Trail through Perthshire and the Angus Glens; you might have an idea or three that the scenery around here is pretty stunning too... You don't have to leave the grounds for yet more handsome hikes, as Nethercraig includes 20 acres of woodland where the helpful site owners have marked out a trail for wandering and dog walking. And if you prefer sitting in dreamy contemplation rather than crashing about the countryside, take yourself off to the large pond for peaceful times by the water – the kids have a playground and a football field to keep them nicely occupied. Previous guests have given plaudits aplenty about Nethercraig's handy setting, friendly approach, spotless amenities and thoughtful layout, where the accommodation areas are among hedges and trees to maximise seclusion and a sense of space. The toilet block is centrally set and has toilets, hot showers, accessible facilities, baby changing, a washing-up area and a launderette. Nethercraig has a small shop and a smart barbecue hut to aid fuelling up; for more supplies, a butcher, pubs, cafés and takeaways are in Alyth. If you're here for golf (it's Scotland, after all), sort your swing right on site at the golf practice net, before a speedy drive to Strathmore Golf Centre six miles away to show off your new moves.

What customers say

Super clean, chilled, and tidy park with heaps of room on the sites and great amenities like playgrounds and bushwalks. Staff are always a winner – friendly and keen to help. Lots of folks plan to come back. A couple of little things: shower pressure and Wi-Fi could be a bit stronger.

Aga L.

Powered grass tent site

Liked We were guests at the park for three nights in a tent. The surrounding area is beautiful! There's a well-organized walking trail, and Peel Farm is nearby, where you can grab a coffee and visit a small animal farm.
Holiday park has a nice toilet with shower access and hot water.
Host were really friendly and helpful, we will definitely stay there again!
Aga &Tomas

Disliked I didn't like the opinions other guests left, comparing the stay at campsite to a 5* hotel and giving stupid and silly comments.
This Holiday park has all what you need to chill out and spend some quality time with nature.

Powered gravel caravan site

Liked Absolutely loved our stay here! Peaceful and relaxing! Really well laid out, there are water and grey waste disposal points well placed around the site so you don't need to drag your aquaroll the full length of the park and back, always a bonus. The pitches were really spacious, plenty of room for a caravan, awning and getting your car parked, and plenty of woodland walks as well as an enclosed dog run meant we never had to leave the site, just what we were wanting! This was our first stay here and we can't wait to be back!

Local attractions

Summer songbirds and winter wildfowl flock around the reservoir of Loch of Lintrathen a mile away, a pretty place for wanders as well as wildlife watching. The loch has two hides, one of which (on the east shore) is wheelchair accessible. History and heritage are also within sightseeing reach: famed Glamis Castle (yes, the Macbeth one) is 25 minutes' drive away , Scone Palace within 45 minutes, and Discovery Point, the maritime museum telling the tale of Scott's Antarctic research ship, within 40. There's also the 19th-century stately home at Camperdown Country Park (35 minutes), part of a 400-acre estate also home to a wildlife park and an 18-hole golf course. Kids should like a potter around the Beatrix Potter Exhibition and Garden at Birnam 45 minutes away, while pursuits certainly for the grownups include Edradour Distillery and the Famous Grouse Experience, 55 minutes and an hour and a quarter away.
