What customers say

Big, scenic spot with great family facilities (playground, pool, beach nearby). Friendly staff. Spacious, tidy sites. Some mention Wi-Fi woes, noise, and need for upgrades. Rural setting = poor phone signal but peaceful vibes.

Alan W.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Openess of site, we were very well spaced apart from other campers making it feel more natural. Toilets were clean tidy and comfortable, showers were good warm and strong. The local scenery is outstanding with way too many small beaches o the road to site and at it. Pool, cafe and bar all good, providing value for money meals

Disliked not the sites fault, but on the last night it rained, apocalyptically!! our PUP tent got flooded as in Noahs ark sailing away with a pair of bright pink crocs visibly floating LOL. perhaps the site could look into its drainange system to allow for the more often torrential downpours Scotland gets.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site (TV aerial)

Liked Pitch was great. Shower block was clean but can see why, in high season, there may be issues servicing the demand (previous reviews).
Staff friendly.
Did not do bar or leisure centre as not open all the time (went late September).
Lovely beach and walk over headland wonderful.
Some brilliant castles/abbeys to see in area.

Disliked Castle Douglas.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site (TV aerial)

Liked Welcoming male staff on arrival. Very clean site. Toilets and showers and dish wash area very clean. Leisure Club onsite.

Disliked Bit too rural for us. Put on pitch right next to another family when there was lots of empty pitches but staff agreed to.move us when requested ( just a Privacy thing, nothing wrong with pitch).

Lindsay G.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked Lovely grounds, clean facilities. First time camping with my partner since I was a child and it was a lovely place to visit. We didn’t have time to use the pool but it looked nice.
Showers and toilets very clean. We didn’t use the clubhouse for dinner as seemed pricey but we had a coffee and enjoyed it.

Disliked Nothing we disliked but no signal was an issue for us as we had kids at home so we needed to leave the site to get signal and check in.

Local attractions

Dumfries and Galloway is packed with pursuits for all ages and interests – and it must be pointed out here that the ice cream and nature trails of the Cream O’Galloway ice cream factory are a mere 15 minutes' drive away… Also nearby is The Cocoabean Company (15 minutes' drive) at Kirkcudbright, which has interactive children’s workshops and a chocolate shop (hurrah) alongside well-equipped and roomy indoor and outdoor play areas. While in town, kick around in the grounds of 16th-century MacLellan's Castle (15 minutes) in the centre of Kirkcudbright, and have a look at Broughton House & Garden (15 minutes), former home of one of the Glasgow Boys EA Hormel and housing a huge collection of works by Robert Burns (painter, not poet Rabbie). At Gatehouse of Fleet (20 minutes), about nine miles to the north-west from Kirkcudbright, the Mill on the Fleet art gallery holds regular exhibitions and events like literary launches and talks. Follow up a morning here with an afternoon at 15th-century Cardoness Castle (20 minutes) or around the thousands of species blooming around at Cally Gardens (20 minutes). And a few more gems that must be seen on a Dumfries and Galloway holiday: a boat trip to the Gem Rock Museum (35 minutes) at Creetown, filled with fossils, rocks, minerals and gemstones, and a stargazing trip to Galloway Forest Park (40 minutes), the first designated Dark Sky Park in the UK.
