Reviews - Campers emails

We enjoy having you stay in our woodland and appreciate your kind comments :- 18.7.2015  Dear Chris andYvonne, Just wanted to say thank you for an amazing 2 days. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect and I know my family thought I was mad to go camping on my own when the weather wasn't great. I really felt looked after, the pitch was fantastic and the facilities are top not for such a rustic experience.  I can't thank you enough and I hope to be back before the end of the summer with my daughter and my mother. thank you again! Steph  Pitch: Coppice ...... 17.8.2014 Hello Chris & Yvonne - We didn't see you any more when we left today, but many thanks for a wonderful weekend. Emma and I have really enjoyed your campsite. All the best and see you next time. Best regards, Guido and Emma 15.9.13 Hi there Yvonne and Chris,  Thanks very much for having us at the campsite at the weekend.  We had a great time there and will definitely be back  Feel free to use any of the photos.  Regards Jim Hi Yvonne,  Just a quick note to say thanks for a brilliant week.   Your campsite is amazing and we had a great time.  My two new stools look brilliant in our back garden See also:- http://garden-furniture-fife.blogspot.co.uk/.     Thanks, Alison Pitch Rust Sent: 02 July 2013 15:06 Hi Yvonne Ha ha I don't know how many times it is now, I would guess 6 or 7! It's so nice and it's so easy for us to get to as well, such a short journey in order to 'get away from it all'! We used to like wild camping and tended to go to Loch Tummel or further afield but that's much harder to do with wee ones and as campsites go, yours is pretty wild but with the basic facilities (like running water/toilets) that makes it easier if you have kids. Best of both worlds and still close to home if the Scottish weather decides to do what we all know it can do.  18.6.2013 "Thanks again for a lovely stay (as always).   I feel much better now and ready to tackle the next onslaught in work! Hope to be back soon - I will be in touch." Pitch "Rising Sun" ........ 11.11.2012 "Mule" Hi Chris and Yvonne, Just a wee note to say Thank You again for another fantastic night! really enjoyed our time there (at " mule") , was great to see The Shack and also the caravan they both look great!!

Denise Caravan Pitch "Rosebank" and "Well" ............ "Hi Chris and Yvonne, Just a quick e-mail to say thank you once again for a lovely few days away, (as ever). Our guests that came yesterday thoroughly enjoyed themselves too. See you again soon - we may come when its colder and test out the shack as that looks good! :) Take care, Sarah, Sean and Finn" "Hawk" pitch (named after the plant "Orange Hawkbit seen on the edge of the pitch around July.) 11.8.2012 ...............

We enjoyed the stay in your "Sweet meadow Wing" very much,
it was purely wild experience which infact we both were looking for before planning.

Thank you once again & would probably look forward to see you some time later.

Just wanted to say thanks and to let you know we all loved Gimme Shelter. It made our first time camping very special and we survived that awful rain. Looking forward to coming back!


Many thanks.

We really enjoyed our stay at Gimme Shelter - thanks from all of our group. The site is a very clever set up and we loved the pitches up top with so much space to the next pitch.

"Nest" 13.7.2011

We returned to Newcastle last night after our great two day stay
at Gimme Shelter, pitch 'The Nest'!
Your site is beautiful; quiet and peaceful, with gorgeous scenery and a fantastic host!
We all loved the organic atmosphere with the chickens,
 handmade furniture etc
and the sawdusts toilets were much more luxurious than we had imagined.
The perfect location for trips up to Elie and Anstruther!

When we left, we talked about making our trip to Duloch an annual event!

I've attached a few of our photos which we would be more than happy for you to use on your website.

Regards and best wishes for a successful summer,

Rachel Scott

Hi Chris,
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say how much we enjoyed our camping with you
on the weekend.
The facilities were perfect and the shop was beautiful (the Rhubarb jam was especially nice!),

it's so refreshing to see some homemade produce and honesty box.

Anyway, I'm sure you'll see us again soon over the summer,











probably in a larger group now that we've seen how nice the place is.

Regards, Rob.
