Thistle Holiday Home Parks in Scotland
There are more than 60 holiday parks on this website, all with top-class Thistle holiday home caravans, perfect for a short autumn break or a half-term holiday. "Thistles" are top-quality caravans on top-class caravan parks, many of which have facilities on-site. If you have dates in mind and want to check which parks can accommodate you, then you can check availability by e.mailing all parks - see below!
Several parks have a restaurant and bar and some have indoor leisure facilities. All have plenty of space for the kids to play. There are Thistle Parks in the countryside, by the seaside or close to a village. Thistle caravans are a home-from-home after a day out exploring the countryside or visiting attractions. And the good news is that "Thistles" are good value for money, especially in the shoulder months of September and October.
Thistle Holiday Home caravans are top-quality static caravans on 4- or 5-star caravan parks. The caravans have to be of a high standard to be awarded the coveted VisitScotland ‘Thistle’. You'll find details - and photographs - of "Thistles" on the Holiday Homes' page. They have two or three bedrooms and are fully equipped for self-catering.
Things to do: Near the park may be a sandy beach or signposted paths for walking and cycling – ideal for you and the family to enjoy. Wherever you are in Scotland there are places to visit, such as Historic Scotland's castles and abbeys, and the castles, historic houses and gardens in the care of the National Trust for Scotland. Read "Scotland's Castles" (see left-hand panel) for more ideas.
Some parks welcome pets; look for the dog symbol on entries on this website.
