A little slice of tranquility
We are touring the South West Coast 300 route and booked a stopover at Newark Farm for one night on the day of arrival. We were so thrilled with what we found that we immediately booked a second night. There are nice walks directly from the site and... Show more

Train and bus service to Glasgow and Dumfries. River walk accessed through fields from the dog walk. Nice circular... Show more

Peaceful relaxing site
The site is level and pitches aren’t assigned but plenty of room for 5 units so you can select your view. The waste facilities are good and well screened. Views are beautiful and with virtually no noise from road or commuter rail line. Easy walk along road or via the river... Show more

Site is very easy to find, access directly off the main road. Glorious views of the countryside. Given you are on a hill, the Site is almost level and billiard table mown grass. Ideal for motor homes but a little hard to get pegs in for awning. Frances was very... Show more

The site was easy to find. We had booked by e mail, and others on the site told us it was fine just to pitch up. We didnt see the owner at all, which was OK except that we had to find out from other campers where to leave our... Show more

Wonderful site
We had a 2022 winter stay here and, in spite of some challengingly cold weather, it felt most comfortable, safe and secure. The site is sheltered and so felt great in the winter weather. The views are stunning and the immediate surroundings pretty. The site is well set out, clean... Show more

Great Views
Nice find. We were only here for one night after visiting friends locally but it's definitely worth a second visit. Beautiful view from the site and a great dog walk straight out of the gate. Frances is a lovely lady and was very helpful with local knowledge and passionate about the area. Flat... Show more

Beautiful and peaceful site
We spent nearly two and a half weeks in this lovely site which is a real haven of peace and natural beauty. Even though the A76 is just outside the farm the site is placed such that there is almost no awareness of the road at all. The site owner,... Show more
