Where to go

Around Stonehaven

Staying in town puts you within easy reach of Stonehaven’s attractions, as well the surrounding area. From the town centre, you can walk along the coast to Dunnottar Castle and follow walking and biking paths into the countryside. By the seaside, next to the swimming pool, Stonehaven Club Site has pitches for caravans and motorhomes. 

Catterline

A 10-minute drive south of Stonehaven, Catterline is a picturesque historic fishing village that is close to the seabird colony at RSPB Fowlsheugh reserve, where you can see huge numbers of puffins, fulmars, razorbills and more. On the edge of the village, Cloak Caravan Park is a quiet site overlooking the coastline. The site has grass and hardstanding pitches for tents and campervans.

Royal Deeside

With its moody mountains, towering crags, rivers, moors and forests, the romantic landscapes of Royal Deeside captured the imagination of Queen Victoria and many visitors since. The area is an excellent setting for outdoor activities such as walking, biking, whisky tasting and wildlife watching. In the southern valley of the River Dee, Deeside Holiday Park offers a tranquil retreat, with pitches for tents and tourers, as well as a handful of camping pods and lodges with hot tubs.

When to go

For wildlife spotting (particularly seabirds in the cliffs); long daylight hours, sunshine and landscapes covered in colourful wildflowers, visiting in spring or summer is best. The winter, however, has its own appeal. There’s always a chance of seeing the northern lights and, on New Year’s Eve, the Stonehaven Fireball Ceremony has to be seen to be believed. The traditional event sees locals swinging blazing balls of fire above their heads in order to ward off evil spirits.

Know before you go

  • Wild camping is permitted throughout Scotland, as long as you follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
  • Stonehaven train station has direct links to Aberdeen, Edinburgh and even as far as England and Wales. Local buses can get you around most nearby places of interest.
  • Stonehaven has several small supermarkets. For major purchases, head for Aberdeen, a 30-minute drive north.
