Barry Downs Park

Likte: We really like it here, buses right outside the site into Broughty Ferry and Dundee

Likte: Open all year

Likte ikke: Power supply, kept tripping out and almost convinced me there was an issue with the fridge and microwave

The extortionate rate charged for a dog, we have two and the bill for them equally a quarter of our last nights costs 25%. This wouldn't be so bad if there were provision for the dogs as is the case at Glen Nevis for example and they make no charge for pets.

Likte: Open all year

Likte ikke: Power supply kept tripping out.
We had to run our fridge and heating on gas.
Power supply so poor we that the microwave would not heat food in fact we initially thought the microwave was no longer working and were on the point of buying a replacement.
Cost charged for accompanying pets particularly when there is no provision made for them like an exercise area.

Likte: Nice flat pitches

Likte ikke: No one to speak to, called reception but the number didn’t work. Didn’t realise you just chose any pitch. It’s completely unregulated, technically anyone could just rock up and park without even paying. Washing up area taps at sink didn’t work, had to wash dishes in the bathroom. Didn’t feel safe. Convenient stop over but would definitely not recommend, no one is friendly, just a weird place.

Likte: Nice big, flat pitch.

Likte ikke: Stayed on 2 jan - we do appreciate not many places are open but don’t take the booking if you aren’t prepared to provide info/facilities. Arrived 3.30pm and reception was closed. Called the number on the door to be told to find a free pitch and ask someone for the code for the ladies shower block as he didn’t know! (mens was open). There was a row of outside ladies toilets behind the shower block, these were open but toilets only, no sinks.

The park was quiet, not many people around to ask. First couple didn’t know. Asked someone in the gym, she said she wasn’t allowed to give out the code. I emailed and luckily got a quick reply.

Perhaps an email with this info would be a good idea, I believe this park is new to Pitch-Up. Just to mention - there’s no drive over for disposing of grey water. I asked at reception the next morning and she suggested a bucket which we don’t have but as it was only one night not a huge problem for us. Also the (single) water tap has a short hose attached and nowhere to drive nearby so impossible for us to top up our fresh water tank. These 2 things would probably put us off going again.

There’s a restaurant/bar on site but we didn’t use it. Shower block is okay, the lock doesn’t work on one of the toilet doors, we didn’t use the showers so can’t comment on how they are. Don’t think there was any Wi-Fi, I couldn’t find any option to log in.

Likte: Nice and quiet

Likte ikke: Place wasn't manned at all. Called when arrived to see where to go. Was told he would send a code for ladies toilets/shower room. The code was wrong so couldnt get into the shower rooms. Toilets there was only 2 that had toilet paper in them.We were told to park anywhere and hook up.Electric hook up point didn't work it was burnt out. Messaged the guy a few times but replied once then no response from anyone at all. I know it was hogmamy/new years day however if site is open then they should reply to messages. Website states there is a gym which can be easily accessible we couldn't get it that either. When we were leaving we could access the road as there was a van/car blocking the exit from both directions
