What customers say

Friendly staff & good entertainment, but cleanliness concerns & noisy railway line were common. Beach access tricky due to bridge closure. Some thought it pricey for what's on offer.

Liked The near to the toilettes. The clearness of the toilettes, the possibility to wash the clothes. And the small distance to the beach….(theoretical)…
We had only the Sound from the waves…

Disliked Because there is no way to go to the Beach!
The Bridge is defekt and unuseable!!!!
We had to go min. 30 min. To the sand.
There was no sand in sandyland!
The Train bitween the pitch and the Beach drives every hour, often at night also.
So it is Not really possibility to relax.
There is no Information about this all at the website.

Liked Nothing

Disliked The pitches for campervans was situated beside the rail way tracks which ran early hours, the site just lacks any kind of cleanliness! The shower facilities were dated and just felt unclean and smelly. The site was busy, the entertainment for the children were seriously questioning their life choices and lacked enthusiasm. The drinks in the resort bar were expensive. The drive into the park itself went through a estate which made you wonder if you were going the right way. We struggled to find access to the beach was part of it's appeal. I would not recommend this site!

Liked Restaurant, friendly staff and good food. Came very quick

Disliked Rubbish around pitch
Dirty place
Pool wasn’t very nice
Overall just felt grubby
Paid a premium price £50 a night, normal campsites are £30 roughly.
Not worth it at all.

Liked Ease of access. 24hr toilets and grey waste water disposal.

Disliked Although advertised as a short walk to the beach there did not seem to be any access due to a railway bridge having had its steps removed, would have had to walk into Saltcoats and then back down to Stevenston on the coastline from what I could see.

I stayed on the No 1 hardstanding pitch. The bollard advertising the pitch number had been knocked down and there seemed to be adhoc litter around the van ie plastic clips and assorted bungee cords. The area was functional, however, a bit tired.

The hardstanding pitches back right on to the railway.

Around 1:30am the occupants of the van next to me had a very noisy domestic which resulted in broken glass and ceramics on the No 2 Hardstanding. During the course of the fight an occupant set about their outdoor camping furniture breaking some of it. The occupant, who was very drunk then proceeded to drive off with the van leaving his wife and son behind on the grass.

No one came to check this distrubance out. In the morning when I was packing up around 6am it became apparent that there was glass broken around the No 2 pitch and on the grass. I walked down to the security gate which was unmanned. I had to all the mobile number provided outside the security gate to inform the park personnel to clear up the glass before a child or someone's pet managed to cut their feet and also to collect the damaged furniture. The security guard said he would let the office staff know when they arrived.

Liked The friendly staff.

Disliked The unsitely area behind the entertainment block and beside the toilets. The lack of access to the beach due to the closed off derelict footbridge. The false advertising showing the beach but having no access to it. The train line could be hidden a bit by shrubbery.
The food in the restaurant was completely overcooked and dried out in a microwave.

Local attractions

The landscapes in this part of Ayrshire are stunning, so it’s no surprise that some of the country’s most famed championship golf courses, including Prestwick, Royal Troon and Turnberry, can be found in the area. As the birthplace of Robert Burns, Ayrshire is also rich in cultural attractions and museums relating to Scotland’s national poet. It’s easy to hop aboard the nearby ferry at Ardrossan for a day trip across the Firth of Clyde to Arran – the journey usually takes less than an hour and passengers regularly see dolphins during the crossing. Arran has miles of beautiful forest and coastal walks, more great golf courses, and attractions such as Brodick Castle and the Arran Heritage Museum to explore. The railway line that passes Sandylands Holiday Park also runs a limited service to the likes of Glasgow and Ayr, should visitors fancy exploring the area by train.
