Geocache Description:

Tools Required:
  • Pen/Pencil

Haughton Park is situated on the outskirts of the village of Alford which lies twenty five miles west of the City of Aberdeen along the A944. Alford is accessible by public transport.

Formerly part of a private estate that had been in institutional ownership for a number of years, prior to being bought by the former Aberdeenshire County Council in 1970. The Mansion House now houses self-catering flats and the reception, shop and games room of the caravan park situated within the park.

The park covers almost forty hectares in area and this can be broken down into four general sections.

A third of the park is covered by naturally regenerated birch woodland with heather understorey through which runs a network of paths. A third of the park is on the riverside and half of this area was developed as a wildflower meadow approximately eight years ago. Of the remaining third half is occupied by the caravan park, and the other half is mown grass, suitable for events and a wide range of informal recreation, and ornamental planting.

Car Park Charges

Parking is available for approximately 300 cars and includes designated disabled spaces. Pay and Display car park charges apply daily during the period April to September inclusive.
