Jon C.

Power optional cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked A lovely site with very good facilities, including bar / restaurant (limited opening times outside main season).

Disliked The system of paying separately for the electricity used can be awkward when using the card at the hookup post and downloading unused units onto the card for refund.

Lynda C.

Power optional cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked The staff were very pleasant

Disliked Did not like the showers were so far away epically when I had young kids with me
Also didn’t like that you had to pay for electric as what happens if it cut out during the night ? Also to empty toilet it’s a long way to walk ..

Local attractions

If you need a little tipple to sip while you survey your smart surrounds, take a jaunt to one of the local gin distilleries – the Distillery at Dalton is 10 minutes away by car and Annandale Distillery 15 minutes. (Best be saving their [excellent] wares for later if you’re intending to try your hand at horse carriage driving, 25 minutes away at the Chariots of Fire centre.) Countryside visit not complete until you’ve seen all the farm animals? Take your pick from outings to Dalscone Farm Fun (20 minutes away), Mabie Farm Park and Walby Farm Park (both half an hour): all are packed with furry friends that should have the small sorts (and most likely the grownups too) squealing with glee. If they’re more into beasts of the prehistoric variety, detour instead to Dino Park (10 minutes) for a roaring good time among the lifesized models. Fancy flexing the credit card? Get on over to Gretna Gateway Outlet Village to browse for bargains from a whole host of high street names.
