Banff
Welcome
to Myrus Caravan Site, Aberdeenshire - a quiet, privately owned park in
the North East of Scotland.
This is a great place to relax and is also a superb base for exploring the many attractions of the beautiful Moray Firth, Aberdeenshire and Banff and Buchan area and coastline.
There are luxury Thistle Award holiday homes for hire as well as many fully equipped touring and motor caravan pitches which include electric, water, sewage and TV hook-up facilities.
Our caravan site has been totally redeveloped and landscaped over the past 12 months to a very high standard and has been recognised with a 5 star award grading from Scotland's National Tourist Board.
The coast and beaches are easily accessible yet our sheltered location in a mature patch of woodland shelters the site from the cool sea breezes which can develop; indeed, the temperature difference is often a good 3 or 4 degrees warmer despite being only less than a mile inland.
We pride ourselves on our exceptionally clean facilities and well maintained
park and hope you enjoy exploring our site.
Myrus Caravan Park has recently been completely renovated
with newly laid out pitches to accommodate touring caravans, motorhomes
and tents.
Myrus Holiday Park Facilities
Further improvements have included the building of a brand new amenities chalet including reception, a small convenience shop, centrally heated luxury toilets, showers and private washing cubicles, a disabled suite, as well as comprehensive laundry facilities including modern automatic washing machines tumble driers and ironing equipment.
The caravan site is now fully family owned which means we can bring a personal touch and higher quality experience often lacking from larger caravan parks.
A substantial investment has been made in both infrastructure and landscaping over the past few years and will continue.
Future plans include the possible building of log cabins, further landscaping,
as well as a continued commitment to visitors requiring static caravans,
space for tourers, motor homes and campers.
The entire site has catered for disabled people with access to all facilities
including the shop, laundry and toilet facilities.
The Disabled Persons Suite has just been completely re-fitted to a very high standard.
The washing facilities are second to none. They are kept spotlessly clean
and provide unrivalled quality.
The Ladies and Gents washrooms are designed to give you
as much privacy as possible. This is achieved by installing private cubicles
with washhand basins and separate cubicles for showers.
There are hairdryers and shaver points provided. There is a small shop
on site that provides basic essentials,fresh bread, rolls etc and newspapers
are delivered daily.
A fully stocked convenience store less than a 10 minute walk away. Adjacent
to the caravan park with a walk through access is a golf driving range
and coffee shop which serves light meals.
In the centre of the site there is a communal barbecue area with picnic tables provided. Charcoal is also available in the on-site shop. Future plans include the possible building of log cabins, development of additional holiday home and touring pitches and further landscaping. We’ll always be available to help you plan your stay and your visits to places of interest.
