Holiday 2016

On arrival at the site we were greeted by the friendly and helpful warden and after a little drive round we found a nice pitch. The site itself is located in one of the most scenic places I have ever stayed with views over the sea to the hills of the mainland and further if the weather is good. The site is ideal for anyone interested in water sports and dog owners like us can take their dogs onto the beautiful beach for their exercise. The site itself is kept to the usual high standards of the club. There are quite a few rabbits on the site so you have to be careful that you don't encounter a hole and twist your ankle but its not all that much of a problem. We had a great time during our stay and I would definitely make a return visit.

Our chilling holiday

My husband and I with out 3 dogs stayed at New Endland Bay Caravan Park for 10 days in July. The staff that we checked in with was so nice and helpful making the start for our holiday easy. We were able to pick out pitch and set up where ever we liked. All pitches has got plenty of room. The whole place was so well maintained with the great staff all the rabbit holes were filled in all the time to safe any accidents with all those rabbits making in a full time job for them. Sight was busy but it always seemed so quiet making it so easy to chill and relax. The toilet facilitays were always clean the showers,curtains all matched and looked lovely. The little shop had all the essentials and with the chipper van coming round also the bread and fish vans which was a great touch. We will certainly be going back again.

The beach to yourself.

We stayed at the New England Bay site for 6 nights, we arrived to wet and windy weather and it took four of us to get the awning up, once it was up it was fine, a friendly gentleman from another pitch and my dad, who was also staying, helped. We then enjoyed 5 days of great weather. The site is large and spacious, as this was our first visit we went on the second row for a sea view but there are many secluded and private pitches towards the back of the site. Logan Bakehouse visit on Wednesday morning with freshly baked goods - bread, croissants, pan au chocolate, crumble tarts, the list is endless and of course fresh bread cakes (cobs, barms, cakes, rolls - whatever you happen to call them). There is also a fresh fish van on Thursdays and a fish and chip van on Tuesdays and Fridays. There isn't much of a phone or TV signal but the wifi works great. As our dog loves beaches we really could have stayed on site for the whole six days, exercise on the beach and a swim and relaxing at the caravan. There is the Mull of Galloway Lighthouse to visit with an RSPCA centre and cafe too, great toasted sandwiches and scones and cream. Dogs can only sit outside though, it was very windy so we ate our lunch in the car. Portpatrick has a fish and chip van and a few hotels/pubs to eat and drink at, though the Pottery had hardly any pottery for sale. Locals sell eggs and the biggest lettuces you have seen in a while for just 40p. Drunmore has a shop to stock up and Stranrear has petrol and large supermarkets. Port Logan is small and has a CL site, there was lots of jelly fish on this beach though so we didn't go back - but the beach on site was much better and bigger anyway. Each toilet block had Swallows nesting, one nest in the pot wash, rabbits everywhere, you could count around 20 or more out of each window. This has to be one of our favourite sites. Great for dogs who love the beach and humans who only need a few places to visit or could spend all their time on site. We will be returning soon.

We only stayed one night at this site but thoroughly enjoyed it. The wardens were very friendly, the facilities were excellent, the views across the bay were beautiful. We would certainly return and next time we would plan to sray longer.

Nice Site, lovely Wardens

My Wife and I have just spent 6 nights on this site and we found it ideal for walks and sight seeing in this area of Scotland. We also took advantage of the cheap ferry costs to visit Belfast. The sight is a bit like water ship down, rabbits galore but no problem at all. Wardens were very polite and helpful. Facilities were spotless. Small shop on site along with baker and Fish & Chip van visits.

Our stay at New England

We went to this site on 8th July for a few days and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff gave us a nice welcome and wished us a safe journey both ways. All the facilities were immaculate and easy accessible, the views are fantastic and the pitches are very spacious. We would give this site a Gold award. Location is super and easy to access, I found all the roads leading to the site and the roads on site easy to pass through, no issues at all and that was with a Jeep towing a 7 meter caravan... The site fees very reasonable. We fully recommend this site and take this opportunity to thank the Staff for a pleasant experience. Alan and Clare.

Quiet and relaxing.

Stayed here for four nights in july, while the weather could have been better the site is very clean and well laid out you are very close to the beach which is ideal for walks with the dog.The only negative i would have is the road coming to the site is fairly narrow and very bumpy,otherwise a very relaxing time.

Great Site

We only stayed for one night, but wish it was more. The site is well laid out with good facilities and is motorhome friendly. You must like rabbits however; the site is inundated with them, particularly during the evening. Our dog was most amused ;-)

Great site

Stayed a few nights before catching ferry to Ireland from Stranraer. Roads are expectedly fairly narrow for a motorhome but with care it is quite possible to tour the area and visit its many lovely villages and RSPB centre. A lovely quiet site.
