Brilliant wee place, staff helpful and recognise returning customers

Aug 2026

Liked This is our second visit to the site and we just love it, we have a large tent so they were very accommodating to us by giving us a nice large pitch which comfortably held the tent and two cars, facilities are great and if you fancy a takeaway just eat deliver to it. Or the tearoom is there if you want to sit in for some food. Shower block and toilets are immaculate, they are always clean and there is always hand towel available for drying your hands.

Disliked The noise from the traffic is a bit annoying during the night but you get used to it.

From the manager: Thank you, Craig. It means a great deal that you chose to return to Balkenna and enjoyed it just as much the second time. We’re glad the large pitch worked well for your tent and cars, and the team will be delighted by your kind words about their help and the immaculate facilities. The A77 can be heard from parts of our compact coastal site, particularly by tent campers at night, so we appreciate the fair mention. We hope the views, tearoom and warm welcome bring you back for a third visit.

From the manager: Thank you so much, Craig. We’re delighted that you and your daughter enjoyed your very first camping trip with us — and especially pleased that you loved it enough to book another night. It was a pleasure having you both at Balkenna, and we’ll look forward to welcoming you back for another stay!
