A lovely caravan on a quiet site. The site is just off a bus route which goes into the nearest town of Forfar. The number 20 Stage Coach stops on Dundee Road opposite the Mill. The Mill came recommended as somewhere to eat breakfast.

We had a lovely relaxing long weekend here, the Lodge was lovely and homely, with everything we needed, was a bit annoying as the sofa sagged in the middle so wasn't comfortable and had to sit at each side.There was nothing to do on the park itself or even a shop, Forfar was a good 25 min walk, there were a few nature walks to do. We took a trip into Arbroath 30 min drive that was lovely there.
