Liked: Lovely setting for a campsite and all the staff are friendly and helpful. A little walk to the toilets/showers but nothing worse than you'd have at some of the bigger campsites and a 10 minute walk from the local store. If a peaceful camping trip is what you want then this is the place.

Beautiful campsite with nice BBQs, but some ill-considered amenities

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Lovely location and some great amenities - the chairs and cooking tables, and the bbq kit were really appreciated
Disliked: We were there during a quiet time so were allowed to use the very nice showers and bathrooms in the bunkhouse - had we not been, it would have been quite irritating to have to walk back and forth to the public facilities up the road. We were also reasonably lucky with the weather, but if it had been wetter the instruction not to cook inside the campsite shelter would have been an issue - where would we have been able to shelter to cook?

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: The views from the camp spot were lovely and the was a hide which was available for shelter. There are also stone BBQs and the racks etc were available for use in the hide.
Disliked: Toilets and showers were quite a distance away from the camp. You can't use the bunkhouse facilities. There are quite a few boggy patches in the camp site. Quite expensive for a tent pitch.

Liked: The shelter hut was great for sorting gear after being out in the hills. And then as a place to retreat to when the rain and hail showers came down. Beautiful view from it too.
Disliked: A bit of a hike to the toilets and showers.

Liked: The facilities were excellent, particularly the cabin, where I could escape the rain or midges. The location is stunning and all the facilities were very clean and well cared for. The cooking tables, folding chairs and barbecues were a real bonus for campers because we cannot carry these. There were good guides for various walks and the binoculars in the cabin were a nice touch. It is clear the site manager has put a lot of thought into creating a perfect camp site.

Liked: Absolutely beautiful place to camp, amazing views,great wee hide to watch the wildlife. Although the ducks and geese happy to come and say hello.
Disliked: Need toilets closer to campsite. Being a mature lady. Far too far away. Maybe put one or two next to the hide. My only dislike.

Liked: Small campsite where you could choose where to pitch. The camping cabin was excellent and we were delighted there were chairs and camping tables available to borrow. The loos and showers were about 400 metres away. The showers were compact and were lovely and warm. The warden was very helpful and pleasant.
