    Great stop for services just leave a donation

  • 5/5

    Great facility, open despite January snow. £5 for water and grey and black waste. Need cash for honesty box for this (if staying online booking and payment possible via QR code). Upper hardstanding unserviced pitches next to stables backing onto railway line quite close together, but then we're not campsite people!

  • 3/5

    This is a stable with some spaces to park for night, There is a water however you need a tread reductor to connect to the tap.

  • 5/5

    Cost was £5 to dispose of toilet, grey water and refill with drinking water without staying the night which was awesome :)

  • 2/5

    Wir sind eigentlich nicht sehr wählerisch, aber der Platz gleicht eher einem Schrottplatz oder Ablageplatz für sonstiges. Kein schöner Platz zum Übernachten, wir sind weitergefahren (19.10.2023).

  • 5/5

    Parfait pour faire vider vos cassettes, eaux grises et faire le plein d’eau claire. Cependant, pensez à avoir l’appoint pour payer dans la « honestly box » car personne sur place quand je suis passé (pas de CB). Il vous faudra débourser 5£ pour tout faire.

  • 5/5

    tous les services fonctionnent vidanges grises et noires ok, eau propre. c'est rare dans le coin et ça mérite qu'on mette l argent dans la boîte. pour le stationnement c'est rustique, et le train passe derrière, mais sinon super!

  • 5/5

    Very basic Stop over/Aires. £10 to stay with use of the Motorhome service point. £5 just to use the MH Service point. Pay on line or using the honesty box. Ruthven Barracks about a mile up the road worth a trip. Would us again.

  • 5/5

    Stayed one night close to village for supplies (co-op) paid on line good nights sleep visited Ruthven barracks just up the road recommended..

  • 5/5

    Lovely place! Very peaceful and beautiful. Stayed in the field with the roof tent, trains stopped by 11 so quiet around apart from birds and horses. Lots of bugs at nights but didn’t have any issues. No showers as stated but there is a indoor toilet and 3 portaloos also in the honesty box you can buy toilet roll and disposable bbqs! Also a co op nearby. The train station close helped too!

  • 4/5

    Great to be able to use the drop and fill facilities with a £5 honest box

  • 4/5

    Basic facilities, had a look, didn't use. Good overnighter and for £10 wouldn't expect more. Number or hard standing parks near the train track or more space in the 'camping' field. Town is a few minutes walk away. However I would recommend being self contained. There is clean drinking water available also grey water and chemical toilet disposal available. Pay via honest box or website

  • 5/5

    Endroit (centre équestre) top pour les services (vider eaux grises et noires et remplir d'eau fraiche), en libre service contre 5£ à mettre dans une "honesty box". Par contre, nous ne serions pas restés la nuit, ça a l'air un peu rudimentaire.

  • 3/5

    Super für einen kurzen Stopover, wenn man autark ist, Entsorgung möglich. Sonst rudimentäre Versorgung, kein warmes Wasser, Dixi Toiletten. Aber völlig ok.

  • 5/5

    Nous avons pu nous arrêter pour vider nos eaux grises et nous approvisionner en eau propre. Malgré nos demandes pour payer, la dame n'a pas voulu que nous l'indemnisions. Si nous avions eu une boîte de gâteaux ou de chocolat nous lui aurions offerte pour la remercier

  • 4/5

    we did not use the porter toilet. luckily the toilet in the building were open so ok for emergency. most of the time we cycle to the community sport center! very handy as one of us needed to take the direct train to london the owner was away , which may explained why the porter toilet were not usable at all

  • 3/5

    it's a very strange place to stay... (we read reviews so we had an Idea) there is a field or bays to park in, bays are quite close quarters! no issues there, trains are not an issue really .... but the porter toilets really let this place down, I don't consider myself a snob by any means but just clean the toilets! they are that far gone, they need jet washing inside .

  • 5/5

    5£ pour vider les eaux grises et la cassettes. on peut également remplir en eau propre. Les personnes du centre équestre sont très sympathiques. Merci à elles de proposer ce service.

  • 5/5

    Great little overnight spot, very good value for money. It’s basic but it has everything you need; toilet, place to charge your phone, sink, waste water disposal and a Co-Op 0.3 miles away open till 10pm at night. No train noise at night, we had a smashing nights sleep.

  • 5/5

    We only used the facilities — £5 for grey, black and fresh water. All good!

  • 5/5

    Great and easy aire facility - £5 self service to empty grey water, waste tank and refill water. You can stay overnight on gravel pitches for campers or grass for tents. It’s behind a horse riding center and backs onto the train station. We didn’t stay and just used the facilities.

  • 4/5

    Basic amenities but that’s all that is needed for an overnight stay if you are self sufficient. Lovely setting … camper spaces next to train line but didn’t hear any till early morning. Grass pitch past barn for tents. Slightly hard to find but turn up by Kingussie station. You really have to look for the certified motor home club sign as otherwise might be put off by no unauthorised entry.

  • 3/5

    Firstly don’t expect the ritz. It’s a grass roots stop over which does exactly what it states. Ok for a late night. But with so many nice places to stay on the area I won’t be returning. Safe and secure but some trains running through the night do wake you up.

  • 5/5

    Super pratique et le propriétaire est très accueillant et sympathique ! Nous avons juste fait le vide des eaux usées et le plein d'eau propre. Comme nous n'avions pas de petite monnaie en livres, le propriétaire nous a dit de mettre 5€ dans la boîte. Une bonne adresse !

  • 5/5

    Super fonctionnel. Nous nous sommes juste arrêtés pour faire les services. Le tout coûte 5 pounds à mettre dans la boîte. Ce n’est pas cher comparé au reste du pays. Et très pratique.

  • 4/5

    Zo’n plaatsen zouden er meer moeten zijn in Schotland. Na het ledigen van de wc en grijs water konden we verder reizen. Natuurlijk hebben we ook geld gestopt in de donatiebus.

  • 5/5

    Gerne wieder. Unkompliziert! Grauwasser, Toilette entsorgt und Frischwasser bekommen. Geld in eine Box auf Vertrauensbasis. Bis jetzt in Schottland sehr selten gefunden.

  • 5/5

    Great night's sleep very basic but it's all there definitely value for money no fuss and will be back again without any doubt

  • 5/5

    A great stop off for us when travelling south from Orkney. Everything you need and you get to natter to the horses too all at a great price.

  • 4/5

    A basic stop over spot & could be better sign-posted. Arriving after dark in December, we weren’t sure we were in the right place initially. It’s next to a train station, but quiet otherwise. It was disappointing that no electric hook-up was available, but the site, such as it is, was perfectly adequate despite that. We didn’t use the waste/water, so can’t comment on those.

  • 5/5

    Le genre de spot a ne pas négliger, tout est là!

  • 5/5

    Très contente de ce point de vidange les personnes sont très agréables possibilités de rester la nuit pour 10£ mais j’ai encore de la route à faire

  • 5/5

    £5 for black/grey/fresh water Please ensure you leave money in honesty box

  • 5/5

    Nice and quiet place

  • 5/5

    Parfait. On a fait tous nos services et on a donné ce que l on voulait.

  • 4/5

    Ligne de chemin de fer peu fréquentée à côté. Personnel peu présent mais très accueillant.

  • 5/5

    vraiment génial d avoir aménagé un tel espace pour les services ! belle initiative !

  • 5/5

    Simple, basic, functional and a very reasonable fee.

  • 2/5

    next to an electric substation and railway line.No scenic views and has been halfheartedly cobbled together with no care or attention.Ugly handmade signs,overgrown weeds and general lack of care.Scotland is crying out for these basic stopovers and its a real shame that this one falls short. Come on,do better and feel proud of our beautiful country instead of just ‘making do’ We wont be back.

  • 1/5

    You park rigtig next to the railroad. On the other side there is a power transformer station that humms all the time, and it smells of Horsens from stabels. You can not read the conditions and the prises on the signs. You can park here if you realy need to, but is far from a plesent experience.

  • 5/5

    Very friendly and helpful staff. We didn’t stay, just paid £5 to empty tanks and refill water

  • 5/5

    Nice quiet night at the highland horse stables. Lovely village and nice walks. Book online or just turn up and see if there's space.

  • 5/5

    Parfait, nous avons fait vidange et remplissage de l'eau pour £5. Cela se fait en autonomie. Mettre l'argent dans la boîte devant les écuries. Merci pour ce service

  • 1/5

    DO NOT PLUG INTO THE ELECTRIC! A comment said we could plug into the extensions at each bay, nowhere said not to. Despite several apologies, owner was rude and kicked us off site, with no where to go. An unfair response to a simple misunderstanding. Site has fallen into disrepair over the winter it seems. I would avoid if possible, but ok as long as you don't do anything to upset the owner.

  • 1/5

    Muy desagradable. Acabamos de aparcar y tras leer los comentarios fuimos a conectar la electricidad ya que hay varios enchufes en las plazas de aparcamiento. No hay señales de prohibido y varios comentarios dicen que se enchufaron. Un hombre muy desagradable sin aceptar nuestras disculpas nos echó fuera de malos modos.

  • 5/5

    Just stopped here to fill water and empty waste £5 also sells essentials and bbq’s. guy is so nice had a lovely chat he is in middle of doing the camp site up! it’s on a farm with horses, you pay at honesty box!

  • 5/5

    Accidentally found this travelling through this small town! Great job!!!

  • 4/5

    Excellent European style aire that has everything you need for an overnight stop. Well done to those that set this up we definitely need more throughout the UK.

  • 5/5

    Excellent stop, just beside the railway station, all facilities, even got an unexpected hookup! Really close to town centre and lots of walks.

  • 5/5

    At the far end of a stable yard, so maybe a little aromatic in summer, but a good location, very quiet, good level hardstanding, plenty of water hoses plus grey and black water facilities. Just £5 in the Honesty Box if you just want to fill up and dump water, £10 for an overnight stay.

  • 5/5

    Excellent waste and fresh water facilities.

  • 5/5

    Great little spot, perfect for breaking up the journey on the A9 in a secluded peaceful location. Right next to a railway but this wasn’t an issue at all. Everything you could need for motorhome/camper servicing. Definitely one to remember.

  • 4/5

    a good little spot to break a long journey up. We were travelling from Orkney back south. Has a waterpoint and able to get rid of grey water. Next to the railway tracks. We arrived at 10.20 pm and didn't hear a train till 7.15, so a good night's kip. also walking distance to pub and shop 5 mins tops. it's very tucked away and very peaceful and quiet despite being heat to a railway track.

  • 4/5

    Very good stopover. close to rail line but very quiet. coop,chippy,Chinese and a pub 5min walk. they even have a pod for charging your phone. will use again. if you want better .CHECK INTO A CAMP SITE.

  • 4/5

    Not the prettiest of places and a bit random being right next to the railway line and behind various business units BUT it was a brilliant for us when we were running low on water and needed somewhere to stop. Refreshing that they offer essential services and trust you to use an honesty box to pay. Very handy for the little town of Kingussie. Chippy and Co - op open til late. Peaceful at night.

  • 5/5

    Fantastic service point. £5 in the honesty box- black water, grey water and fresh water services. Exactly what is needed. We only used the services but there is also an option to stay.

  • 3/5

    Follow the signs to the train station and then carry on past the station to the end of the road where looks like a stable at the end. 2 water taps and a place to empty waste water tank and chemical disposal point! Put £5 in the honesty box in the little shed area! You can also stay but seemed like a basic parking area with portaloos

  • 4/5

    Great value for money here, very friendly and helpful owner,it is basic and "rustic" but has everything you need for a stopover.Athough next to a train station there is no noise at all at night,great nights sleep here in a motorhome, very pleasant atmosphere.Right on the edge of nice village within easy walk of shops etc. Has CDP, 2 x freshwater taps, drive over greywater,BBQ and campfire area

  • 5/5

    Perfect quick stop for water and cdp. Well thought out and nice people about.

  • 1/5

    Very basic. no electric hook up. no showers. toilets were portaloos and were disgusting..so bad i was nearly sick after using them. couldnt get anything to eat in town apart from the chippy. would not stay again.

  • 5/5

    Brilliant service, everything what you needed. Easy access. Highly recommended. The parking is near railway station, but that wasn't a problem at all.

  • 5/5

    Brilliant! Perfect motorhome service point. Drive over grey waste, cdp, drinking water, all for a fiver. Boom! You can stay on their Aire or campsite. Top marks, thank you very much Highland horse fun!
