Auchenlarie Holiday Park

Liked The pool, kids club , cafe and restaurant, the lovely beaches , the caravan was lovely an so was the staff , no WiFi but the price we paid for 3 days for all the caravan was reasonable

Disliked The arcade was a complete rip off ! One pound a go for most games and for a couple of tickets that you exchange for sweets or gifts but you need to spend over ten pounds to get a 20pence chew ! The odd ten pence machines but no two pence ones , my grandkids was not happy and neither was the parents handing over all that money for a couple of 20p chews , complete rip off compared to other campsite arcades

Liked Great site. Nice location. Pitch was lovely. Facilities clean. Pizza from take away delicious. Never seen so many rabbits in my life - was lovely to see
Would recommend anyone with dog or kids.
Because we had older teenager didn’t really use any of the entertainment options. But if had younger kids could see the appeal.
Lovely beach minutes from site , nice and clean and quiet

Disliked Not much in the form of walks /hikes on foot directly from site.

Liked Fantastic site! Great for the kids lots to do and staff are very helpful.

Disliked It's abit hilly for walking around with breathing issues but this wasn't an issue anyway as I was able to drive around the site and there was plenty of parking available down at the complex and up at the shop.

From the manager: We're glad you enjoyed your stay and agree good weather really makes it extra special. Hope to welcome you back again soon.

Liked The site is huge and seems to be well maintained in most areas. Beach area lovely and clean. Showers had good pressure and lovely and hot. Arcades good fun for the kids. Out door play area brilliant for the kids. Evening entertainment good variety.

Disliked Our first night camping we were woken up at various times with drunk adults walking past, singing and shouting.
Second night was even worse as one drunk man fell into our tent were our children were sleeping. He not only scared the hell out of us and the kids he also broke one of our tent poles.
When this was brought up to the lady on reception she did apologise but seemed more fussed about trying to get us to stay at their other site which apparently is a lot quieter but doesn't have the facilities this one does. Having 2 children was the reason we picked this site for the facilities. It doesn't seem there is any park security at night to ensure things like this dont happen. The guy was so drunk and had clearly been drinking on the site bar. He also smashed 2 bottles next to our tent so had obviously been given a carry out from the bar.
Overall really disappointed. We'd stayed in May and had a few issues with people playing music till the early hours but put it down to a one off and rebooked for summer. We really hoped this would be a site we would return to year after year and bring other family members with us but unfortunately after this experience, the kids being scared to death and the fact we will now have to try and buy new tent poles we will not rebook again. Was also told a member from the antisocial team would call and didn't hear from anyone.
