Why stay here ...
A warm welcome awaits you on our family run tranquil site set within a traditional, stone-built small holding on the edge of the market town of Maybole, Ayrshire.
The site is open all year. We offer a choice of hard standing or well-drained level grass pitches (grass pitches are for stays of no longer than 7 days), surrounded by a patchwork of rolling green countryside attracting wildlife such as deer, grey heron and barn owls. Many previous guests have remarked on the immaculate condition of the site. All pitches have electric hook-up (16 amp) with access to a new toilet block with shower, toilet and wash basin. Adults and children are welcome as are well behaved dogs.
The local shop is found less than a mile into Maybole. Other amenities include a supermarket, cafes, pubs and restaurants which are found within the High Street running from the imposing town hall, built in 1887, to the equally impressive Maybole Castle.
Sporting opportunities include a swimming pool, a 9-hole golf course with splendid views across the Carrick Hills and scenic golf courses in Turnberry (8 miles) and Royal Troon (17miles). Fishing enthusiasts can enjoy the well-stocked trout pool in Loch Mochrum (3 miles). Culzean castle and country park (5.5 miles) is a National Trust property set in acres of woodland, including five kilometres of coastline, caves, rock pools and sand and shingle beaches. The castle is a remarkable vision of turrets and battlements and well worth a visit.
The local train and bus station (1 mile) offer easy access to other places of interest. The closest town to Maybole is Ayr (9 miles) with sandy beaches, excellent shopping facilities, theatres and restaurants. The village of Alloway(8 miles), the birth place of Robert Burns is a must for fans of the Scottish Bard. Further afield sits the vibrant city of Glasgow (40 miles) with its many museums and interesting architecture. There are many picturesque villages to be found in the area such as Straiton (6 miles), the beautiful little village of stone cottages where you can enjoy many fine walks and the idyllic harbour village of Dunure (7.5miles) with stunning views across the ruins of Dunure castle and out to the Ailsa Craig in the Clyde.
For an introduction to the world of Scotch whiskey visit the whiskey experience in the village of Kirkoswald (5 miles). In the summer months a boat excursion aboard the Waverly Paddle Steamer, the last sea-going paddle steamer in the world, allows you to explore the Lochs and Islands of the West coast of Scotland including the Isle of Arran otherwise known as “Scotland in Miniature”. Or head south towards Stranraer to board the Stenaline ferry to enjoy a day trip to Northern Ireland.
Whatever you decide to do during your visit we look forward to welcoming you to this beautiful part of South West Scotland and wish you a pleasant and memorable stay.

Clean and tidy site
Auchenwynd
Stunning views. Peaceful well maintained site with one combined toilet and shower. We spent a couple of days exploring the local area. Although peaceful the site has easy access to local routes north and south. Owner very friendly. Access straightforward if you follow the instructions provided.

A perfect CL
Auchenwynd
We stayed on this site a couple of years ago when in transit to Arran, but we returned this year to explore a part of Scotland that we had not visited much. This CL was a perfect base for exploring the whole area from Glasgow down to the Mull of Galloway, the wonderful coast and inland hills.
The site is owned and run by a very friendly couple, who were very helpful.
For us, this CL is just perfect, large hardstanding pitches with power, giving us the ability to park across the pitch for the view from side windows. The rubbish bins are will marked for recycling, the water supply has a great pressure and is well located. Toilet disposal is good too. For us a big plus was the motorhome grey water disposal grid, which made dumping it very east indeed. The whole site is really well maintained. Although we use our own facilities, there is a newish cabin with shower and toilet, which appeared to be immaculately maintained.
In our opinion this is one of the best CLs we have ever visited and would recommend it for anyone both as a stopover and a base for an exploring holiday.
Thanks again to the wonderful hosts.
So Enjoyable
Auchenwynd
Stayed for one night on one of the few dry and sunny days of the year so far. What an excellent find.
The service facilities are immaculate (water, grey, black and rubbish disposal) and the toilet/ shower block clean.
Got a warm welcome on arrival and enjoyed a great peaceful stay in a lovely location.
If you're looking for a stopover in this area, make this your choice. Terrific.
Short stopover on route to Skye
Auchenwynd
Only stopped for one night on our way to Skye. Pleasantly surprised at the tidy ness, layout, peace and quiet of the site.
There is a toilet and shower if you don’t have your own facilities, they are clean and do a job.
The site is lovely, the pitches are large and well maintained, very quiet and within walking distance of the town of Maybole. We marked it 3 on access to places of interest as we weren’t there long enough to to find out.
Learnt that there are something called Indian Running ducks, who knew? They, along with the chickens, sheep and cows made this a really homely site.
Would definitely stay again if in the area.
