Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Camping with tent... The site is fantastic and plenty of players areas for kids, the cove is nice and secluded. The prices for food and drinks are reasonable so not like the well known holiday parks where they rip you off, the convenience store has everything you need and even those camping essentials you may have forgot like we did (windbreaker). The camping facilities were spotless i.e, toilets, showers and sink for cleaning dishes etc, all in all everything we needed for our camping trip.
Disliked: We found it a bit impersonal regarding everything was online from booking to check in and even getting your plot number without human interaction, even ordering food/drinks and even takeaway was done by touch screen (just a small peeve) The biggest issue was the noisy crows, there is a wooded area where the tent/tourers are and the crows have made a rookery so the constant noise was off putting when trying to sleep, only quiet from around midnight til 4am. This issue will put us off coming back camping.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: We really enjoyed our stay at auchenlairie. .the Toilet/ showers where nice and clean, the site has an arcade, swimming pool. A bar and a very short walk to the beach where we went fishing. our pitch was next to a lovely little stream
Disliked: The crows haha literally thousands of them and they are very noisy. Also our pitch wasn't level we never bothered to relocate, I'm sure the staff would have give us a different one if we asked

Liked: Excellent site. Very clean. Beautiful views, friendly staff and lots to do. Great if have dogs as dog friendly and although cannot use restaurant can take dogs in the Sports bar.
Disliked: Asked to leave the pool when time was up despite being pretty empty, but to be honest am sure they would have allowed us to stay longer if we had asked.

Liked: Spacious, lovely walk down to the beach plenty of room. Clean bathrooms if you use the brick building. Swimming pool is lovely and warm. Shame the booking system didn't work at all. 3 times we turned up to be told we weren't booked in. Luckily there was room but very annoying.
Disliked: The only place I dislike the birds waking me up in the morning. Crows do not make the best bird song to wake up to!! The Portaloo style showers didn't lock properly or you get locked in when the lock jams Something to be aware off. People kept letting young children down to the beach unattended. As much as its lovely it's definatly not a place for young children to be alone.
