About Greenhillock Glamping & Camping
Suitable For
Tents, families, couples, dogs and large groups by prior arrangement – yes. Caravans, campervans and motorhomes – no. The site is car free, with parking provided in an adjacent plot.
Nearby
The site sits between the spectacular mountains of the Cairngorms National Park (01479 873535) and the dynamic geography of the east coast. To the former it's around a half hour drive, to the later 20 minutes or so. Try heading straight for Arbroath – a medieval port town that's now a throbbing heart of the Scottish fishing industry. Sampling the fresh seafood is a must while your there. Visit grand Arbroath Abbey (01241 878756), founded in 1178 by King William the Lion, or pop in to see Kerr's Miniature Railway (01241 874074), the oldest miniature railway in Scotland, which has been operating since 1935. Today it is run by a hobby group of volunteers and remains popular with locals, tourists and railway enthusiasts. In the opposite direction, Glamis Castle (01307 840393) is 15 minutes by car, a 14th-century castle and the late Queen Mother's childhood home with guided tours of the lavish interiors available.
Food & Drink
Communal BBQs are provided. Monthly bar and BBQ events allow you a night off from cooking and let you savour local food and drink around the communal firepit. Away from the site, it’s short drive south to The Mill (01307 469486) for hearty breakfasts and lunches, while The Drovers Inn (01307 860322) is the top gastro pub in the area. For more of a restaurant vibe, try Forbes of Kingennie (01382 350777). For seafood near Arbroath, try But ‘n Ben (01241 877223).
Family Friendly
There’s a reason it’s not called Greyhillock. Wild grasses grow, dragonflies dance around the lily pond and birds flitter in the trees. It’s all about winding down with simple pleasures here, campfires, plenty of bug-hunting, pond-dipping and den-building activities make this a truly back to basics camping experience.
