Welcome to Fernlea. We would love to have you visit us, either on our 5 pitch campsite for motorhomes and caravans, or in 2025 to our new luxury glamping pod.
Fernlea is our home in the heart of an agricultural plain called “The Carse of Gowrie,” which runs for 20 miles or so along the River Tay between Perth and Dundee. It’s a beautiful area that we hope you will love too.
We are a short walk from the village of Errol, with access to lovely walks along the Tay. We are adjacent to the local bus route (just stick your arm out!), the Sustrans cycle route 77, plus only a mile or so from the A90 Perth to Dundee / Aberdeen road. We are perfect for both a short stopover and a longer break with a fascinating local area to explore.
All pitches have hard standing, water on each pitch, grey waste disposal adjacent to the pitch, and a 10 or 16 amp electric supply with a chemical toilet waste tank with rinsing tap behind our garage.
We are also within easy access to Fife and the southern area of the Highlands. Walkers and bird watchers will find many footpaths by the River Tay and can climb the local hills to see buzzards, hawks, ducks, and migrating geese throughout the seasons.
Any visitors requiring repairs or accessories for their van will find the large Perthshire Caravan dealership nearby. Every Sunday, one of Scotland’s largest car boot sales and markets is held less than a mile away.
Facilities on the CL Site:
- Dog walk from the site
- Information room
- Recycling facilities
- Battery charging
- TV reception: good
- 16 amp electric on 4 pitches, 10 amp on 5th
- Water on all pitches

Absolutely stunning location - you worry when you arrive as it’s a really popular tourist attraction but the car park empties out and it’s very peaceful. Nice walk along the loch side or a boat ride on the loch plus good cafe

Loved the getaway in the campervan for couple days , back to nature with stunning views. Such a beautiful quiet place on a lovely farm surrounded by livestock. Great wee chippy in Dalton and co-op right next to it plus wee cafes aswell n butchers.
Only thing was having to take own loo roll into bathroom even after the cleaner had been n not restocked.
Would deffo come back and maybe stay in the pods for a change.

It was amazing! The view of the surrounding fells and farms was so tranquil and peaceful. Andrew was a friendly and helpful host. The property was beautiful and there was a good community of campers there that socialized over breakfast. There were also trails on the property that we didn't get to. I would definitely recommend this campsite to anyone that is going to Scotland

Group trip
The pitch is pretty much perfect if you want a basic camp. 4 of us with a camper had a great time from start to finish. Malcolm is very attentive as a host and kept us stocked with firewood and came to make sure we didn’t want for anything. Loch Ken is not too far away and has a good water sports centre with decent boat hire for fishing.

Caravan parks near Hamilton guide
Where to go
Strathclyde Country Park
Less than a 10-minute drive north of Hamilton, Strathclyde Country Park is home to the remains of a Roman fort and bath house, as well as the M&Ds theme park. The park’s Watersports Centre and Strathclyde Loch are popular spots with kayakers and windsurfers, while events such as rowing competitions and guided nature walks are held throughout the year. On the edge of Parkland around the park, an array of holiday parks have room for tents and tourers.
Stepps
On the northeastern outskirts of Glasgow, the town of Stepps is handy for accessing the excitement of Scotland’s biggest city, as well as the nearby Seven Lochs Wetland Park, which has quiet woodland trails with views of the Campsies and Loch Lomond. Here, holiday parks and campgrounds have hardstanding pitches for caravans, as well as grassy areas with spacious tent pitches and selection of self-catering accommodation, including chalets and onsite caravans.
Lanark
Twenty-four kilometres south of Hamilton, Lanark offers quick access to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of New Lanark and the Falls of Clyde Wildlife Reserve, which has a network of trails from which you can view waterfalls and wildlife like badgers, otters, and more than 100 bird species. Outside of town, campgrounds offer onsite caravans, plus spacious areas for touring motorhomes, vans, and tents.
When to go
The summer months are the best time to visit Scotland's Central Lowlands. While sunny days can't be guaranteed, daylight hours are long and, when the sun does shine, the wildflower-carpeted Clyde Valley glows with rich colours—especially in fall. Winters can be chilly but are typically fairly moderate and offer the chance to spot otters in the Falls of Clyde Wildlife Reserve. If planning to continue along the West Highland Way, which begins nearby, spring or fall is best for avoiding crowds.
Know before you go
- Some private campsites in the area are seasonal—check opening dates before travelling.
- The weather in Scotland is always changeable, even in summer. Come prepared with warm, waterproof clothing.
- Hamilton has three railway stations with connections to Motherwell, Glasgow, and Lanark. Hamilton bus station services the surrounding area, as well as Edinburgh and some parts of England.
- You’ll find a choice of supermarkets in the town center, as well as a camping store close to Hamilton Central railway station.
