What customers say

Spacious, well-kept site, great for families. Clean loos & showers, brilliant play area, near a lovely bay. Pool & restaurant are popular. Mostly peaceful, though some noise noted. Phone signal & WiFi are weak.

Kate W.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Club house good, easily accessible, clean grounds. Had plenty space at non electric tent pitch
Good facilities, did prefer toilets and showers near reception. Had toilet and showers together.

Disliked was on way to tent from club house, around 10 pm . Pitch black, had to use phone to see where we were going. Previous visitor to place had advised very well lit up at night. Paid for use of WiFi but didn’t get good reception.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Staff were lovely and very helpful. It was very well set up for families.

Disliked Very noisy and had lots of people walking by our motorhome door late coming back from club as had walked through the undergrowth as a short cut including someone with a buggy and young kids. This included one drunk boy about 14 years old knocking our door for a laugh. Lots of rubbish lying round the bin area. Not a site for us.

Amy C.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked We had a great stay at this campsite! The toilets and shower facilities were kept very clean throughout our visit, which made things so much more comfortable. The playground is fantastic – it’s spacious with several different play areas and equipment to keep the kids entertained for hours. I especially liked that the play area is thoughtfully divided, with a section specifically designed for toddlers, making it safe and enjoyable for younger children too.

Disliked One small suggestion would be to add a sink at a lower height in the toilets for kids to use – it would make things even more family-friendly. Overall, a wonderful spot for families!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Good size pitches, grass kept short. Toilets, showers and wash up areas were clean. I loved the shower, toilet and sink combined cubicles. Staff friendly and helpful. Other campers respectful of rules and quiet by 10pm.

Disliked A few more signs around the park. I charged my car at the leisure club and driving back to my pitch in the almost dark was a little disorientating!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked I liked the shop and surrounding areas shop prices were fair, loved the beach nearby, kids loved the park

Disliked My pitch was rocky (63) WiFi I paid for wouldn't stay on any longer 3 seconds, there was a riot opposite us between a group of ppl at around 1 am shouting swearing too rowdy and too loud should possibly introduce regular patrols throughout a 24 hr period, showers weren't very clean, felt like sardines crammed into a tin, had a dreadful experience it's not the place it's the ppl going,, needs to be manned better

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.
