What customers say
Great for families! Lots to do, clean facilities (new loos!), and friendly staff. Pool and arcades are a hit. Downsides: muddy pitches after rain and some noise. Renovations are happening, so expect good things.

Knock the showers down and start from scratch
Powered grass site
Liked The location of the whole site
Disliked The toilets there was no where to get properly undressed otherwise your clothes will get wet while the shower was running bad planning tbh knock the showers down and start from scratch you pay premium rates to stay and the facilities should reflect that

As it was after summer holidays…
Powered grass site
Liked As it was after summer holidays it was nice and quiet especially in camping / touring.
- Clean Facilities
- Borders restaurant great, really good breakfast
- Nice staff, entertainment team lovely!
- Can tell it’s maintained well, often see the groundskeepers mowing lawns/tidying
- Motorbike museum was mint & nearby
- Quiet little holiday place and small town, Mario’s pizza nearby was also lush
Disliked Was supposed to be no bbqs or fire pits but saw quite a few, would have been ideal but we didn’t bring ours as we were told they were not allowed
- Pool was very small, looked a lot bigger in photos which was a disappointment
- Didn’t see any security patrolling at all - even when it was quite loud after 11pm with a couple parties
- Quite a few pitches were just muddy ditches, big puddles - can’t really be helped though haha

Brilliant site can’t wait to go again
Powered grass site
Liked Brilliant place we loved it. All the staff were really friendly and helpful. The site was very clean and all amenities were modern and well tended to. We were camping and it was lovely and quite nice showers and toilets with free drinking water tap. Indoor swimming pool which was lovely and free passes were issued for the stay couldn’t ask for more really and will go again for longer with my grandchildren as lots of great activities for youngsters I could not fault Solway it had everything.
Disliked Nothing

Fantastic overall site, excellent and clean facilities, friendly staff
Powered grass site
Liked Absolutely loved our camping weekend at solway holiday park, There was 11 of us all together and they were very accomending. Manged to pitch our tents together, sat us all down in the pub at last minute. Staff couldn't be more helpful they always spoke to the children as well. Evening entertainment was brilliant. Lots to do on the site. Indoor pool was lovely and warm. Will definitely be back for a longer stay next time so we can get more exploring done.

Well maintained site and plenty for the kids to do.
Powered grass site
Liked Staff - friendly and helpful
Dog friendly
Cleanliness - Showers and toilets on Touring site modern and cleaned regularly
Activities - Axe Throwing and Body Zorbing were great fun.
Near the coast - not much of a beach but could walk a long way along the promenade & can fish off the promenade too.
Disliked Very busy so was quite noisy all day and night (School hols so to be expected).
Lazy / inconsiderate campers - blasting music during the day and leaving all sorts lying around on the grass on leaving, toys, grills etc

Reasonably good site facilities mainly ok, staff friendly
Powered grass site
Liked Location was good, you could walk on the prom which was nice and flat and over looked the beach. The park was nice had entertainment for families on evening ect, small supermarket, restaurant and fish shop, pizza takeaway, indoor pool
Disliked Touring part good few mins walk from complex ect so not so good for those with mobility issues, also the children's play park a good walk from touring area. There was only 2 sinks at washup area,

Nice grounds and local town was…
Powered grass site
Liked Nice grounds and local town was nice to visit.
Staff did respond to noise complaints.
Staff tried their best to keep the toilets clean (despite how poorly some guest left the facilities).
Swimming pool dated (modern changing rooms though) but fine, pool water is warm, lifeguards are very proactive.
Disliked Pitches are smaller than expected and not well spaced out. Despite website saying no pup tents and not gazebos, there were loads on site and no one told to removed them. Loud music played late at night past 11pm! Only two washing up sinks, for a large site.
Food on site was awful, worst battered sausage I have ever eaten.
Food is very over priced and shop onsite is very expensive.
Location is far from any of the main places to visit. Most places are at least an hours drive away.
