Great site for that 'end-of-the-world' feeling....

This is a really nice site with big pitches and big views; the beach and sea in front, Dumfries and Galloway to the left, and the Isle of Man on the horizon. Our evening walks on the beach to the sound of curlews were unforgettable. There is good walking on the peninsular (which feels like an island), with some walks straight from the site. The cycling is exceptional on quiet lanes, again straight from the site, with Drummore within easy reach (pubs, cafes, and shop), the lighthouse, cafe and RSPB cottage at the SW tip of the Mull of Galloway is a more demanding bike ride but well worth the effort if you are fit, and the small roads across to Portpatrick (25m return, up-and-down-and-up again) also well worth a visit, as is Port Logan (though the pub here has closed). Logan Gardens are also a must and a pleasant walk (excellent bistro), as are the gardens of Logan House if you like that kind of thing. There's a lot to do here if you like the quiet life on holiday, and the wardens are extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

Paradise

We have been going to this site for more than 23 years. We have watched it develop during this time, but it has always remained our favourite site. Our children have grown up with it, and last year our grandaughter came to visit, adding yet another generation. The wardens are fabulous, and so nice. The whole site is spotless, and well kept. We stayed 3 weeks, and have the bank holiday booked there, plus another 2 weeks in September. Long may it carry on, it really is paradise xxx

Great place

What a beautiful site. Friendly wardens, and very helpful. Beautiful facilities, super large pitches, and a games room with a pool table. The site is well kept, and even the abundance of  rabbits are a pleasure to watch. Went out to the Lighthouse, at the Mull of Galloway, tricky drive in a Motorhome, but well worth it for the view. Was quite windy when we were visited the site, but the beach would be beautiful in the sun.

Peaceful sea view

My 1st visit to a CC site and a brilliant choice. A friendly warden to welcome me, a pick of available pitches with no one watching my every move, A peaceful place to relax with superb facilities on site and plenty of local places to visit. Will definitely camp here again if in the area just to watch the rabbits

Lovely position overlooking the bay and well located for visiting the Mull of Galloway or any of the great gardens nearby. Friendly staff and good facilities. Would have liked to stay longer.

Stunning Location

This site is a bit of a trek to reach, but well worth the effort. Right on the beach, most of the pitches have some sort of sea view. Ground a bit uneven but well drained. Beach is a bit rocky/pebbly but once the tide has gone out, there is a vast expanse of hard, smooth, clean sand. Great for the kids. For dog owners, there is a walk along the top of the beach area/dunes or wait until the tide goes out. Also just off site in the picnic area. Minor problem for dog owners is the number of rabbits - there's hundreds of them. Our dog (and cat) went mental trying to get out at them. Lots of interesting little places to go and visit around here although the closest shop for papers or anything you've forgotten is 4 miles away in Drummore. The views from the most Southerly point in Scotland, at the Mull of Galloway, are astonishing and well worth the drive. Toilets on site, as always, were spotless and the wardens a treat to chat to. The fish and chip van calls on Tuesdays and Fridays and I can honestly say that they are the best, for taste and value, that I have ever tasted in almost 40 years. Fantastic! One of the most relaxing sites I have visited and I'll definitely be back.
