What customers say
This campsite gets a thumbs-up for its prime spot, lekker views, and spick-and-span facilities. Staff are a gem, always keen to help. Grounds are well-kept, pitches are roomy, and it's dead quiet – perfect for walks with your dog and exploring the coast. WiFi's a bit dodgy for some, and a few loos could do with a scrub. But hey, most peeps reckon it’s top-notch and plan to come back for more.

Great campsite in a most beautiful part of the world. Great showers!
Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Loved the cleanliness and the size of the pitches. Clear instructions from the staff and the general feel. Loved that the ice cream van visited at 6pm!
Showers were great too and lovely walks from the campsite. A great place to stay if your mountain biking with a family in the 7 Stanes as there are trails into Dalbeattie Forest from Rockcliffe.
Disliked My only real gripe, and this is nit picking, so maybe could knock half a start off for each was that the electric hook up lantern near us was very bright (not all night though) and that there seemed that there was a food scraps bin intended in the scullery, though it wasn't there. Not great if you bike-packing or travelling light and have no waste bags. That's probably a reminder to me to pack some very thin light waste bags.

Electric grass campervan pitch
Liked Great location, wonderful views, good toilet/shower/washing facilities. The site is in a beautiful area with lovely coastal walks.
Disliked The upper fields mainly have slightly sloping ground so you will probably need chocs if you are in a van. The lower field looked very flat and level.

Beautiful camp site views, friendly staff and clean facilities.
Electric grass campervan pitch
Liked Castle Point was one of the most picturesque camps we've stayed at on our road trip. The view from the very top site was lovely. Very quiet camp at night. The facilities were good and clean.
The staff we're very friendly and had some knowledgable suggestions of the area to walk!
Disliked The washing up area had no hot water, but this wasn't a major issue.
