Macdonald's Farm Touring and Camping

Likte I found Macdonalds through a Google search and I'm so glad I did. It's such a fantastic campsite! We liked the great location of Macdonalds as its only a short walk from Porthcothan beach, which is a really gorgeous beach. The restaurant and bar area were the best we've ever had at a campsite. Great food, live music was incredible and the staff were always friendly. The toilet block area was always clean but then we have a small complaint to follow. The view over the fields was stunning and we could also see the lights from Boardmasters, where our eldest was staying. The free WiFi on site was very easy to log in to and we had signal on our pitch towards the back of the site. We've never had that facility on a campsite before and it was a lovely perk to have with a teenage son. The vibe there was really relaxed and we had the best 5 nights away with friends who also loved the site!

Likte ikke We have 2 complaints about our stay. Although the toilet block was clean and modern, only having 2 showers for women, 2 for men and another 2 for families is not enough at all for 66 pitches (when full as it was when we were staying). I also only had hot water for about 1 minute of my shower and then it was cold on 2 separate days. There is no temperature dial, just a push button. The other complaint was our pitch location. We were on 64 which was on a corner section. Although nice and big for our tent and car, it tended to be a cut through for people and just didn't feel very private. It didn't offer any privacy either as we had others behind and to the side with a road in front. We would definitely book again though and want to come next year, just we'll ask for 1 of the more secluded pitches.

Likte Good facilities, nice play area, good choice of food and drinks. Site is well maintained.

Bus picks up from the front of the site so can travel round the various bays.

Likte ikke Bid scarer/gas cannon going off in field behind the campsite so our dog spent the week really distressed as goes over multiple times an hour during daylight hours.

Couldn't really walk anywhere with the children from the site even the beach as the roads are narrow and felt unsafe with no footpath.

The site gets really busy with people parking to use the restaurant on friday/Saturday night. Had to queue on one occasion to drive onto the site.

Likte Absolutely gorgeous site, facilities are amazing. Lovely vibe. Would 100% return.
Pitches are very generous. Felt really safe and secure. Good food on site, real bonus there is a freezer although someone did take out ice one day but the venue replaced it which was super lovely!
People were respectful of quiet time in the evening. Kids were up quite early and were a bit noisy but that’s what you get for a family site and to be expected, just missed my lay in a bit!
The local beach is simply stunning we went down each night for sunset and it was yeah just beautiful.

Likte ikke There was a slightly jarring I think bird scarer? in the adjacent field to the pitch we were in which was extremely loud and unpredictable and it went off a lot. I’d say it may spook a few dogs. This went off quite early in the morning and throughout the day, did make me jump quite a few times!
The WiFi didn’t work for me at all and I had virtually no signal, not exactly a problem and meant I spent less time on my phone but it would have been good to have more consistent connection so we could stream our nightly fix of love island!

Likte We absolutely loved our stay! There really wasn’t anything to dislike about this site, the facilities were spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained, and very well looked after.

The location was perfect for the base we needed, and we couldn’t have asked for more. We’d happily stay here again and would definitely recommend it! 😊✨

Likte ikke We didn’t stay long enough to take advantage of the evening entertainment
