Liked: The place was very clean and well looked after. The owners were very welcoming,friendly and helpful. The site was in an excellent location and felt very safe and secure there.

Liked: I cannot recommend this site enough. It is so peaceful with beautiful scenery and sky line at night. Although it is a small site it has everything that you need. The toilets and shower were immaculate and felt like a home from home as did the games area. Our 2 daughters loved running around the grass area and looking at the animals in the fields. The site is only 2 miles from Dumfries town centre and easy access to all major roads. The site is very secure at night with a locked gate. The best thing about the site for our 2 daughters was the free wife after us visiting 3 others sites before this one I can honestly say this was the best site in our D&G tour. Thank you so much for an amazing and super easy stay.

Liked: The shower block, washing machine were a nice touch. Clean and easy to use. Close proximity to the town and various out of town shopping centres.
Disliked: This appears to be a fairly new site but “country park” really doesn’t match reality. Fairly close to the main road so there is road noise. No reception on arrival. No info on facilities and essential info like waste disposal and a pile of gravel in the corner. Was told off by what I assume was a warden for not having the dog on a lead despite us being the only ones there. A bit petty we thought. Ok for a stop off en-route to somewhere else but we won’t be back.

From the manager: Your review is appreciated. Since your stay we have addressed a lot of your issues and put procedures into place to give more information on arrival. We have a policy of dogs being kept on leads at all times on the site, which also includes the holiday home owners too. This is also the same policy at the majority of other campsites. But we have a dedicated large dog walking field along side the campsite with a beautiful river for everyone to enjoy. We hope you will stay with us again and see the improvements we have made.

Liked: Lovely clean site really well set out. Facilities very good and the laundry room a big bonus 😎
Disliked: No a dislike but could do with another water tap on the tourer field. You would struggle to find a dislike.

Liked: Clean, well laid out and very new facilities and friendly staff.
Disliked: The ladies show room was flooded after a shower and very hard to mop up afterwards as water didn’t drain away.
