Liked: Loved the views, toilets facilities, showers good, easy scenic coast walk into town. Lots of walks, dog friendly & Portpatrick is just the best place to explore!
Disliked: Toilet block needs hooks for towels/bags in the main sink area. Site needs more lighting at night as it’s a very dark walk to the toilet block.. bring a decent torch. No wifi. Asked for electric pitch but told none left which wasn’t correct as there were a good few electric pitches available for our whole 2 night stay.

Liked: When I arrived I was greeted by Garry who explained everything and directed me to pitch. Unfortunately I couldn’t get my campervan roof up so went back and Garry helped and we managed to free it so a massive thank you to him otherwise I would have been going home!! The pitch view was stunning, the weather was superb, the walks were wonderful so overall an excellent site, excellent service and I will certainly be back.
