Comrie Croft Campsite

Comrie Croft Campsite combines a woodland setting and a semi-wild camping feel with the practical comforts of toilets and showers. Around five miles from Crieff in Perthshire, this eco-campsite welcomes tents, campervans and dogs, with glamping pods available for those who prefer an alternative to pitching a tent. Campfires are allowed, and the campsite shop sells sausages and marshmallows for cooking over the flames. Open all year, with online booking available, it offers a countryside stay without dispensing with the basics.

Crieff has bars and restaurants for meals away from camp, while Glenturret Distillery is around four miles from the campsite. Its tours take visitors into the production areas to explore the stages of traditional whisky-making, making it a useful option for a day out with a different focus.

For walking, head into Crieff to explore Lady Mary’s Walk beside the River Earn, where the path passes beneath mature oak, beech, lime and sweet chestnut trees. Benches offer places to pause along the riverside, and a signposted extension climbs Laggan Hill for countryside views. MacRosty Park provides another option for a gentler outing, with paths and bridges around the Turret Burn, mature trees and a Victorian bandstand. These are walks to visit from the campsite rather than routes described as starting at your pitch.
