Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Nicely kept lawns, friendly staff, lovely and clean shower/toilet/ washing up block, lovely location.
Disliked Would recommend moving the barbecue area away from the swings as it could be a hazard, and maybe place directions to put fire out after use. WIFI could be free.
Peaceful. Amazing views. Lovely well maintained site and very helpful and friendly…

Great area to explore - perfect campsite. Quiet & friendly.
Powered grass campervan campsite
Liked Wonderful campsite. It exceeded expectations. We were on the ‘upper field’ in a campervan. Views over the Solway Firth and stunning countryside all around. Staff were super helpful - shower and toilet facilities immaculate. Lovely walks on the doorstep to Rockliffe and Kippford, along beaches made entirely of seashells. No kidding! Great food at the Anchor at Kippford. We will be back!
Disliked Maybe the shop could have sold a few more items - but not a big deal
