Accommodation

There is an extensive range of campsites and caravan parks to choose from, in just about every corner of the country and which are open all year round. For maximum flexibility, you can bring your tent, touring caravan or motor home but if you want take it easy and explore just one particular area, why not rent a modern caravan holiday home or a lodge in one of Scotland's many caravan parks.

It's not just kids who love the sense of adventure of staying on a caravan park. Caravan holidays are a good option for couples too, regardless of the weather. Many parks have activities and indoor leisure facilities on-site or nearby so there is always plenty to do. If you're in need of a reviving break then why not try a coastal caravan holiday park? Many parks provide a wide range of facilities whilst others focus on providing peace and quiet amid stunning away-from-it-all countryside.

For 2012, VisitScotland is introducing our new Holiday Parks Quality Assurance scheme, recognising the things you told us were important. You told us you wanted our star awards to better reflect the Scottish holiday you know and love so we listened and we changed them. This has resulted in some of our star awards for individual parks changing but your holiday experience won’t - you’ll still get the level of customer service you’ve come  to expect and all the facilities you’ve become accustomed to from your favourite Scottish holiday park.

So whether you are looking for a budget family break or just a way to stop and smell the roses, Scotland offers a range of caravan and camping parks to suit all tastes.
