Fraserburgh - Esplanade Caravan Park

The Esplanade
Fraserburgh AB43 5EU

Location Map

Following the Council decision to transfer the operation of caravan parks, investigation into the possibilities of community group involvement for the management and operation of this park is still ongoing. However, at this stage it is unlikely that a conclusion in terms of Community Asset Transfer will be achieved in time for the new tourist season. We have therefore adevertised this park for lease on the open market and expressions of interest have now been received, information packs will be issued to the interested parties along with the necessary documentation. In the interim period arrangements are being made to open the park for business at the start of the 2012 season.

The caravan park is closes for the Winter Season.

General Information

Fraserburgh is the second largest town in Aberdeenshire, behind Peterhead. The town developed from its foundation in the 16th century to become the largest and one of the most fishing dependent settlements on Banff and Buchan’s northern coast. 44,000 tonnes of fish are now landed at Fraserburgh.

In 1787 the newly formed Lighthouse Board leased the tower on Kinnaird Head from the Fraser family and converted it into the Kinnaird Head light. This remained in use as a manned lighthouse until 1992, when it was passed by the Northern Lighthouse Board to Historic Scotland. It has since formed a part of the attractive Scottish lighthouse museum, housed in purpose-built premises at Kinnaird Head. It is well signposted from the centre of Fraserburgh, when you have visited the museum, the nearby Fraserburgh Heritage Centre, showcasing everything from the age of sail to the haute couture of designer Bill Gibb is also well worth a look.

Situated overlooking the esplanade and on the large beach (which is included in the marine conservation society's good beach guide) of golden sands that stretch round the bay to the Waters of Philorth and its Nature Reserve.

To the west side are industrial properties and fish processing factories.
