North Rhinns Camping

Me gustó Great camping spot with large pitch site and good facilities.

Me gustó We liked the campsite a lot, it was so peaceful, clean, quiet, well maintained and you got a good view of the stars as there wasn’t light pollution.

No me gustó The manners of the owner Ray has unfortunately made us not want to come back or recommend this site to anyone.

We was late due to traffic, when we stopped for lunch I tried to contact via WhatsApp but because I had 3G it didn’t send, so I tried a text informing him that it looks to be more like 7pm we would arrive and that said it had failed to I tried again and it went through. A text response was ‘Better late than never I suppose’ .. I thought nothing of this and thought I have tried my best to get in contact with them incase they had plans or didn’t live close to the site etc.

Anyways.. We arrived at the campsite and the I saw a sign to ring the bell. Upon ringing the bell I didn’t hear it sound (I thought it might be on silent as it’s late) but I also noticed that it didn’t light up as it looked like it should have.. Thinking that it didn’t go through I thought I would call as we were blocking the entrance to the site as a car left just before we came in… Well that was a BIG MISTAKE! Don’t do that, otherwise you will unleash the beast!

Ray came out and noticed I had my phone in my hand and towered over me and said “ARE YOU CALLING ME AFTER YOU JUST RANG THE BELL??!!” … Without letting me explain about being unsure the bell was working and that I was blocking the entrance he continued to say “YOU ARE SO RUDE AND IMPATIENT, YOU ARRIVE LATE AND THEN YOU DO THAT AND YOU CANT WAIT! I LIVE RIGHT THERE (pointing behind at the house like we was meant to know), GIVE ME CHANCE, YOU ARE JUST SO RUDE! YOUR ON PLOT 3 GO.” And then he stormed back to his house I’m guessing.

The interaction felt very threatening, quite scary to be honest. We would have turned round, left and let him keep the money if it wasn’t so late and traveled for 7h instead of 4.5h.

After this another camper came to check if we were ok.

The next day he was interacting with new arrivals and was friendly, he was showing them around and giving them lots of information.

He continued to ignore us for the whole stay, I said good afternoon to the other owner and she ignored me.

Me gustó Everything.
Pitch had picnic table and fire pit and use of a BBQ and pizza oven. Very quiet location (no children helps with that!)
Spotlessly clean site and toilet block.
Not many sites provide washing up facilities that include washing up liquid and tea towels.
Brilliant week thanks.

No me gustó Nothing.

Me gustó This was an intimate little site with individual plots. I was on plot 10 which was surrounded on 3 sides by hedges with a view across the fields. Facilities were clean and looked after with 2 toilets, 1 shower and a kitchen area with sinks and a fridge.

No me gustó The wind - but I did go in a storm! 😆

Me gustó Toilet block with large shower. Although only one shower, it was always free when we wanted it & plenty of room to sort yourself out in there!
Communal area with kettle, sink & plug-sockets (invaluable for charging phones & for plugging in my Dyson hairdryer!)
Private & secluded pitches. Gazebo was a useful touch.

No me gustó Although pitch was large, it was difficult to find uneven ground for the tent.
Whilst facilities for log-burning is a nice touch, not so nice when you are down wind of the campers across from you, who are burning away into the wee hours…

Me gustó Ray was extremely helpful in organizing a pitch for our friends next to our campervan. The site is so quiet and nestled right into the woods - we had a really lovely time. Everything was organized and clean and we’ve already recommended the site to our friends!

Me gustó Lovely peaceful site. Good size pitches. Secluded. Small but clean shower. Loved the fire pit.

No me gustó NOT an adult only site as advertised. As owner said it was up to her at her discretion. Her whole attitudec hanged after I I questioned her about children in site.

Me gustó One of the best small campsites we've had the pleasure to visit. Lovely, quiet individual pitches with screening trees & bushes to give just enough privacy from your neighbours. Our tent pitch had a really useful wooden shelter with large picnic table & clothes line. We borrowed (and almost ruined) the pizza oven. Our hosts were friendly, chatty & couldn't have been more helpful if thy'd been called Mr & Mrs Helpful.

Me gustó I loved the quirkiness of this site, each pitch is different and has added extras included in your pitch such as wooden kitchen shed or gazebo. I would describe each pitch which has its own garden, making your pitch spacier. I think they’re are only 12 pitches, most of the camping pitches are ‘no’ car, so a wheel barrow is supplied … The loo shed facilities include loos, a shower, kettles, fridges and washing up facilities. There’s also a gazebo for bicyclists and motorcyclists to store their gear in.
The hosts were so friendly
The only thing it doesn’t have is wet waste disposal for campervans/homes.
Probably the best camping site in the world! This is how I would do camping!
The site is off a quiet road into a gate
Hint: when you book, there’s a number on the description, this is your pitch number.
Stranraer is 6 miles away, village of Leswalt is 2.5 miles away

No me gustó Absolutely nothing
