Wairds Park Campsite

Wairds Park Campsite sits on Beach Road in Johnshaven, a small fishing village on Scotland's northeast coast.

The park is community owned and managed, originally gifted to the Parish of Benholm and Johnshaven in 1923, and is run as a charity for the benefit of local residents and visitors alike.

It offers 15 pitches for tourers and caravans — all fully serviced with electric hook-up and fresh water — plus 16 tent pitches. On-site facilities include showers, toilets, a laundry room, food preparation area, and a disabled toilet.

Beyond the campsite itself, the park provides access to tennis, bowling, and an 18-hole putting green. Johnshaven village adds further appeal, with two pubs, a local shop, and a harbour where boats can be launched at high water with a permit.

The site is open from 1 April through 31 October.
