A Curate's egg
This site is a bit of a curate's egg. We really enjoyed our stay, partly because we placed ourselves in a little paddock area all by ourselves that wasn't that obvious on first arrival. Otherwise there seemed little space and all that was available looked like a cramped hard standing, so where you locate could have a big impact on your impressions of the site. There are far reaching countryside views and we enjoyed watching the swallows flying and the cows in the fields. The area used to be more industrial and there is a quarry and landscaped tips in the distance. There is a little road noise but not intrusive. The wi-fi was welcome as we've been away from home touring for a while. The site offers excellent value for money. On the down side, the farm buildings were very dilapidated, it would be good to have separate drinking water and grey water disposal points to avoid contamination and the shower could do with some TLC. Main negative was that on the last night there were eight units which made the rest of the site feel rather crowded and quite a lot for a single WC. Access to the site is very well signed and very easy.
We visited New Lanark world heritage site and would highly recommend it along with the walk from there along the Clyde to see the waterfalls. We also visited the fascinating Craignethan castle. We climbed Tinto hill/moutain (not sure which at 2,200ft) which had superb views from the top.
