What customers say
This well-maintained campsite is praised for its cleanliness, spacious pitches, and friendly staff. Guests particularly highlight the excellent dog walking facilities and the peaceful atmosphere. While shower and toilet facilities are generally found to be immaculate and modern, some visitors noted the limited number close to the touring pitches, though others found the alternative facilities a short walk away adequate. The games room is a popular addition. Its convenient location for exploring Dumfries and surrounding areas is also frequently mentioned.

Nice place to stay
Electric gravel pitch
Liked Very clean and tidy site
Disliked Speed bumps x3 . They are far too high for a caravan to cross. You have to crawl over very slow or things in your caravan will bounce. Never seen them so high on any other site.
