The Bowling Club Camp Site

Set on the edge of Tomintoul and run by the local Bowling Club, this small community‑managed stopover offers a quiet, level, and well‑kept space for motorhomes and caravans. Guests consistently praise the spotless toilets, reliable electric hook‑ups, and easy access to fresh drinking water. The site has a simple, relaxed feel, with open views of surrounding countryside and a picnic area beside the green. Tomintoul village is only a short walk away, giving visitors immediate access to cafés, shops, restaurants, and the well‑known Whisky Castle and Glenavon pub. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, with many reviewers noting helpful locals and occasional opportunities to join in a game of bowls. The site is also located within the Tomintoul and Glenlivet International Dark Sky Park where spectacular stargazing is possible (on a clear night). Payment is via an honesty box and pre booking is not required. Facilities are intentionally basic: there are no showers and no chemical waste disposal, making it best suited to self‑contained motorhomes. The pitches are flat and spacious, ideal for a peaceful overnight stay or a base for exploring the Cairngorms.
