Parking on site

  • Motorhome pitches at an Angus farm five minutes' drive from Kirriemuir
  • A five-minute drive to Glamis Castle; half an hour to Dundee
  • Dogs and kids welcome; chemical disposal point on site
For a small town, Kirriemuir has an awful lot going for it… This Angus location is often known as the ‘Gateway to the Glens’ – and it’s also a ‘fairytale town’, as it’s the birthplace of Peter Pan creator JM Barrie (now commemorated in several ways around the town, including a museum and a park). On top of all that it’s the home of a traditional music festival, and also has interest for metal fans, who head here to see the life-sized bronze statue of AC/DC frontman Bon Scott. With horse riding, golf and birdwatching on the menu too (along with plenty of places to shop and eat), it makes an excellent base for a break full of variety. About five minutes’ drive from the centre of town is Knocknahushoch Farm, a quiet rural spot that’s got just a handful of motorhome pitches where guests can park up and relax in peaceful surroundings. It’s a simple setup here in terms of facilities – there’s a chemical disposal point but please note you’ll need to be self sufficient for toilet and shower facilities. Dogs and kids are welcome on site, and there should be plenty of space for everyone to stretch their legs on the grass area by the hardstanding pitches. Once you've explored Kirriemuir, there's plenty more to do nearby – perhaps walks in the Angus Glens, an outing to Glamis Castle or a day trip to the various museums and galleries of Dundee (half an hour's drive away).

What customers say

This campsite is a tranquil, rural escape with lovely country views and ample space. Reviewers rave about the welcoming owners, quiet ambiance, and great value. Essential water/waste facilities are handy. Best for self-contained RVs/vans, it’s a serene spot away from town. Many found it perfect and plan to return.

Windsock primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Being able to check availability online.
Very easy online booking process.
Interesting to see light aircraft landing and taking off.

Disliked None EHU pitches are a long way from the water etc. we were a little unsure where exactly to park up so that we weren’t in the way of aeroplane parking spots. Very difficult to get level.

Liked This campsite was exactly what we needed. Quiet, green, open and not crowded. We'd driven for 5-6 hours and it was such a relief to be somewhere that was instantly relaxing was so simple to get to the pitches, no stress.
