A great site for adventurous kids young and old

Second stay that was just as good as our first. Cleverly laid out site with a pitch type to suit everyone. A stroll from a beach and a bay perfect for water based adventures - grandkids and grandparents in their element. Loads of interesting things to do in the surrounding area, we didn't travel further than Stranraer, 20 minutes away, and even then that was just for food and diesel. You need to be prepared to experience the outdoors because that's what this place is about, there isn't much else if you're taking children that are used to entertainment being provided for them. Friendly, welcoming staff and the usual clean facilities.

Peaceful site.

Our first visit to this site but will not be our last. If you want peace and tranquility then this is the site for you. Friendly and helpful staff and clean facilities although we were surprised that the facilities appeared to be small for the number of people on site but, having said that, we did not experience any problems. We are motorhomers and prefer to use public transport when on site and we are trying to encourage the Club to provide more information about public transport near to sites. In the case of this site the information is incorrect, there is not a bus stop near to the site and, according to the wardens, the bus service is unreliable so we were unable to use public transport. If you are interested in nature or just like looking at nice scenery then a visit to the Mull of Galloway peninsula is a must, there is an excellent cafe and it is very easier to spend a whole day there exploring the area.

Excellent site

Marvelous site, clean tidy and well maintained. Wardens exceptional and very helpful. Asked (in the morning) if it was possible to have a hook in the washing up area to hang a coat on whilst washing up, by mid afternoon two hooks were installed! Thank you for a lovely week.

Beautiful site

large open site all grass pitches. it slopes slightly towards the sea but it is also terraced so no problem with levelling. we pitched on the front right up the end, we were protected from the beach by sand dunes but the beach was about 100 yards through the dunes to a beautiful sandy beach perfect for walking the dogs. lots of circular walks off the site all available from the tourist information hut on the site. fish and chips available Friday and Wednesday evenings are were delicious. pretty decent shop in the office too serving local ice cream - lovely. we had a really enjoyable few days here on our way to Ireland, the tidal sea pond is interesting and worth a visit as is the lighthouse. we would go again our dogs loved the beach

Fantastic as always

Just returned from another lovely stay. As always, all the wardens were hard working, friendly and helpful. The shop is well stocked compared to previous years, and the site is perfectly kept. The only downside for us this time was some inconsiderate visitors on site who let their kids play and ride their bikes around our van, which kept us on edge somewhat! Also some visitors were driving onto the beach over any point they chose and not the vehicular access part. Not a massive issue but it seems a shame to damage the beautiful scenery through idleness or ignorance. Will definitely return, as this is our favourite ever site. Thank you to all the lovely wardens who as usual were brilliant.

A wonderful quiet site.

My wife & i just had out first 4 night stay here & were heartbroken to leave, the views are stunning the weather was typically Scottish (wait 5 mins for it to change) The beach is less than 100yrds from the edge of the site & fishing anywhere along the coast is permitted, this has to be what a perfect site looks like, but there is one thing, the facility's, while these is nothing wrong with them & there are two blocks on site they just seem rather small for the amount of people that can be on site, on one occasion i had to wait around for a toilet to become free, ok i didn't wait too long but not everyone can hold on, otherwise we will be back we hope our net stay is just as good as this one, Finally i love my Motorhome and when driving it, us Motorhomers wave to each other like old friends, yet when on site people rarely even say hello? Come one people be sociable.

Room with a view

This was a pretty large campsite but had the advantage of offering pitches with views, pitches with privacy or pitches with a bit of both. The pitches on the front, whilst enjoying uninterrupted views were more open to the elements and any movement on site. We chose a pitch at the back of the site where they are quieter and largely screened by gorse bushes. To the front of our pitch was an open area of wildflowers leading up to the hillside. It was idyllic.

Perfect for nature

Four nights at probably the best club site we've visited. Been a member for seven years and loved the site. Perfect for nature lovers and dog walkers. Well worth a visit.

Great beach site

Stayed for 3 nights at the end of April. Great site, spread right along a sandy beach. There are also more secluded areas set back from the beach among the broom. We chose one of those, and had a magnificent view of a bluebell covered embankment at the back of the site. Loos were clean (as ever with CAMC), although the ladies on the closest block seemed to have some flooding problem which was being worked on. There was another block further along, so just a minor inconvenience. There are rabbits running everywhere here, which is fun, but if you have any great hang-ups about rabbit poo, this might be a problem... Just leave your shoes outside!
