What customers say
Beautiful castle grounds, spacious pitches, nice walks, dog-friendly. Clean facilities, friendly staff, restaurant highly rated. Peaceful, though some found washrooms a bit dated and showers/disposal points far. Pay-as-you-go electricity. Many plan to return.

Nice relaxing quiet break, pity the weather wasn't kinder
Power optional cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Hoddom Castle is in a beautiful setting, very close to the A75, yet miles from anywhere. Very peaceful and quiet when I visited, perfect escape from all the firework nonsense back home. Many water points scattered around the site, so not too far to walk for water.
Disliked Nothing

Power optional cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Fantastic pitches, which are large. Grounds are outstanding with several trails and places of interest within a decent walk of the site. Site has a one way system in operation. The Coachhouse is the bar and restaurant on site and is good value for money, and has free wifi. Unfortunately, we struggled to get any better than 3g in our van. Staff all over the site were absolutely fantastic, taking time to make sure you received information you needed. The castle itself is quite impressive, even although most of it appears to be derelict. Plenty of toilet blocks, which are kept spotless. Also plenty of bins, waste water points and fresh water taps throughout the site. Electricity is on a pre paid card, with any credit left over is returnable, so you only pay for what you use. All in all, we were very impressed, and will return.
