Love this place, great for the kids. Play park, right near the beach for paddle boards, swimming and crab catching. Park has a pool and club house although I love more bring back to nature and outdoors with the walks and the putting green and the driving range. Great arrangement of pitches and facilities are good and the shop reasonably priced. Near kirkcudbright too

Could do with more cleaners during the week in the summer school holidays - one cleaner can’t get round 2 blocks before the 8am morning check so sometimes out of stuff. Called it in but no one let the cleaner know so people not able to wash hands wasn’t great till 11am in the morning one day. Was just worried about germs getting spread. Shop wasn’t that greatly stocked. In my 7 night stay I never managed to get a loaf of bread - but small things in the grand scheme of things

Brilliant site for kids to play out all day and make friends and also for them to explore the beaches and woodland and to swim in the sea and the pool. Close to the amenities toilets, showers, wash block and club house which were well maintained. Near enough to Kirkcudbright for a visit, but far enough not to be a distraction. Brilliant dark skies and mostly sheltered from a stiff breeze.

There's always a few that spoil it for others, but a very few in our experience. That's no reflection on the campsite though.

Awesome site! friendly staff

Toilets need cleaning more regularly

It was a mostly quiet area at night. Nice a dark which was nice. And ok play park for the children to play on and the toilets and showers were super clean.

It was rubbish that the leisure club never opened untill 12 especially as its summer holidays. Not much to do around the park while waiting for that to open, they could do with having a separate arcade area thats open in the morning as well. The food is quite over priced for the portions and quality you get and only ate there as we forgot our camping stove definitely wont next time. They need more inside places for dogs as well especially as the Scottish weather is so unpredictable with rain. The shop could do with being better stocked with a wider range of stuff and maybe offer hot rolls in the morning since the leisure club isnt open.

Fantastic site. My kids love it. Have offered them somewhere different each year we’ve been. They want to go back. Have already booked for year 5.
A safe and very clean environment and very helpful staff. Cannot fault it in any way.

The weather on day 1 this year 😂

Level
Tv socket.
Nice walks for dog around camp. Cliff top and woodland/beach walks.

Toilets where nice but not kept clean,
Waited 1.5 hrs on my takeaway pizza from leisure centre.

Easy check in, explained how to get to pitch and given 2 maps. Well spaced out pitches. Toilet block just a short walk away.

The bar stopped serving food at 6pm on the Saturday night and didn’t know when /if it would start to serve and if it there were loads of folks in front of us so we might not get served, the nearest place is Kirkcubright for food so we had to go and get an alternative.

Lots of wasps flying about the outside tables, nothing seemed to be cleared away and the bin was overflowing.

You are told there is no free WiFi on site but in this day and age it really should be provided, the pitch is expensive without having to pay to get wifi

Road into the site is tight, glad we didn’t meet anything large while towing the caravan

Big playpark, good paths for scooters and bikes, lots of space.

- Cleanliness
- Maintenance
- Lack of staff presence

Cleanliness wasn’t up to scratch. The floors in the toilet block next to the park looked like they’d never had a good clean since being built. Stained with urine and big clumps of hair stuck to the ground. I saw a cleaner spot cleaning with an antibacterial spray on the floor which is not good enough considering the amount of people using this toilet. The same bits of litter (a piece of half eaten cucumber in the men’s and a bit of used toilet roll on a radiator in the women’s ) lay on the floor for the 3 days that we were there.

Bins outside the toilets are overflowing all over the road and absolutely stinking.

Bin lorry’s and staff cars speed at around 30mph past tents with toddlers playing outside (on route to the leisure centre). Many other guests commented on this.

The swimming pool was basic and the kids enjoyed a swim but the cleanliness was again severely lacking. Plasters and hair all over the floor which had brown stains everywhere due to lack of cleaning. Pool was closed after we left because someone did a poo in it (at least they closed it).

We were told the restaurant was first come, first served and food started at 5pm. We went up at 5pm with our 2 young children and got a table easily because it wasn’t too busy. We were given a menu to look at but when we went to order we were told that they had stopped orders for at least 40 minutes due to a backlog of food orders. We chose to leave and go to Meleks in Kirkcudbright which was absolutely excellent.

Finally, for a campsite to be that jam packed full, it was very surprising to me that there appeared to be no security whatsoever. No barrier at the entrance and we didn’t see a warden enforcing any rules during the evening. Speeding cars, little children walking large bull breed dogs in the playpark without any adult about and bonfires being lit too close to our tent where we slept. With the recent sexual assault in a campsite up in Loch Ness, you would think that they would have at least one night porter doing walk arounds. The only security that I saw was a cctv camera situated inside the unisex toilet/ shower block. No signs to highlight this so very invasive and has potential for some serious violations of privacy.

The coastal walks are so overgrown and unmaintained that you can’t get to the shore on most of them. Only 2 paths are walkable. 3 are completely covered. The coast is stunning when you get there.

We have used hundreds of campsites dacross Scotland, the UK and Europe. This one has such great potential but isn’t being managed properly and is quite disappointing.

I was very excited to try this campsite as it looks to have everything you need. Unfortunately, the cleanliness and lack of maintenance really let it down.
