If you want peace and tranquillity, this is the site to go to. Overlooking the sea with wonderful scenery and many walks to get to from the site. It is however approx. 30 - 45 minutes away from the Galloway forest with many fantastic walks which are well designed and easy to navigate. No need to carry cash for parking at the sites because they accept bank cards which is good if you haven’t the precise change. Parking fees for the whole day is £3.00 which I thought was reasonable (although you can find free car parks but you might have to driver further to get to them). One point of caution is for dog owners who plan on visiting the Glentool visitor centre. The 6 mile circular walk around Loch Tool is undeniably lovely, but there are some parts of the path that are really jagged rocks and even my super fit border collie struggled to walk on them. The guide says that the path is “mainly wide stony path” but that didn’t do it justice at all and had I known beforehand how rough the rocks were, I probably would have chosen to go elsewhere. Anyone staying at this site could also not ignore how fantastic the wardens were. Nothing was too much trouble for Ann and Martin and they were the best I have come across over the many sites I have visited. During my stay I had a problem with my TV and its ariel and was also poorly. Both were so helpful and their kindness, hard-work and easy-going nature was a credit to the caravan club. This is a site where because of them you can genuinely relax and not feel like you’re being constantly watched for some minor infringement of the rules (unlike so many others on the network).
