Love this campsite - luckily we had beautiful weather if a bit windy but I can imagine it to be a bit nasty in bad weather what with being on the coast.
Very clean site, toilets and showers have shampoo, conditioner and moisturiser. They cost £1 but they are definitely worth it.
£20 deposit for a key tag allowing only guests to use facilities.
Will certainly stay there again when next in the area

The touring aspect of Queensberry Bay forms a minor part of a much larger static caravan park, but the two are separated so this is not immediately obvious.
The owners and staff are all very friendly and accommodating and the site offers really good value for money.
The toilet block is rather posh by camping standards and always immaculate. It did however seem rather strange to discover the facilities closed for cleaning mid-morning, and having to share the access key fob was something of a pain.
The washing up area doubles up as a highly equipped campers' kitchen that has tables and chairs along with various electrical appliances available, including a microwave oven and a hot drinks machine.
The elsan disposal falls within a self contained room, replete with hand washing facilities, which was a really nice touch.
Outside, there was a dog bath, which would be ideal if you've walked your hound along the adjacent foreshore. We never spotted any the aforementioned dog fouling during our visit.
Reception contains a licensed shop, which sells all the essentials and is not expensive. Larger shops and takeaways are located not far away at nearby Annan.
WiFi is available, and has recently been upgraded in an effort to improve reception.
There is lots of bird life to watch on the foreshore, and we were particularly intrigued by a barn owl that hunted throughout the day.
Across the bay you can see north Cumbria and the Lake District along with the group of tall antennae at the Anthorn Radio Station.
We will be returning to Queensberry Bay again soon.

Great site! Great views of the sea and beach from your pitch. Very clean and tidy. There was even a dog wash! The staff were very welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Very reasonably priced for a pitch with a great view and electric.
There was a shop there for all your essentials and a spa, but we didn't have time to use it and it had a great array of animals. Our favourite was the pig who seemed to be quite a character! We also liked the tunnels that the guinea pigs had between their different runs and their smart house.
Well worth a visit whether you have kids or not. We will be definitely returning next year on our way up to the highlands.

Fantastic site, great value for money, definitely would recommend. Booked in one night and stayed for three and returned for another two at the end of our holiday. Site was very quiet, well laid out and exceptionally clean in all areas.
The campers kitchen is a big plus in inclement weather. Staff were very helpful especially when my husband locked the keys in the camper van, don't ask! We had a field site pitch with electric hook-up and it was lovely having the animals trotting by and also stopping for a carrot or two! We tried the Spa it was superb and very relaxing.
Well done to all staff for making this the best site we have stayed on, we'll be back (especially now as my husband realises how near it is to the golf course).

We visited this beautiful site in august and were lucky enough to get a pitch with sea views, which are amazing and tranquil, the nights stars are definitely something to spend time watching as you can see for miles on a clear night.
With regard to the site I have no complaints at all, the staff in the reception are very friendly and helpful, they told me everything I needed to know. The reception also has a small shop selling the essentials and the bacon rolls are really worth trying! The shower block is one of the best I have seen, clean, warm and wow the showers are good, very invigorating, I didn't mind paying the pound, (i actually spent two because they were so good hehe). They come with complimentary soap, shampoo etc from a dispenser which you don't often find. My partner was amazed at the ladies side which has a nice leather sofa and hairdressing area as well. There is a campers kitchen attached to the shower block with a microwave and sink, this was also kept very clean and had what we needed for a light supper.
The site itself is very quiet, it was quite busy when we were there and everyone was friendly and chatty, including the animals, of which you must remember to buy some ginger nuts in the shop for the donkeys as they become your new best friend! There are a few animals around, including horses, emus, alpacas, sheep rabbits, guinea pigs and goats who like to escape and watch you from the garden wall! I have seen on other reviews that there was dog mess, I didn't see any and we did walk round the site a few times, the overall cleanliness was good, no mess anywhere.
I would definitely return here for a break, the spa looks very tempting boasting a hot tub, sauna and pool, they do offer a pampering special of which my partner will be trying on our next visit!
Cant wait to come back!

We are members of The caravan club and camping and caravan club and if we find a few more private sites which can come close to the standard of this site and offer such value we will be leaving both clubs.
We found the site staff very cheery and helpful nothing was a problem. We agree with earlier comments re the combined shower and toilet, but they are nice and very clean.
Paying for the showers is a very good idea and considering the inexpensive site fees they are good value. We also noticed the dog fouling, which was quickly cleaned up, probably by the staff.
Cycling from the site is easy and enjoyable, during our visit we were able to easily cycle along the beach. Powfoot golf club is a short walk down the road and for visiting golfers they have some open events including a golf week. We will definitely be returning.
We didn't have children with us but considering the facilities available for children and the fact that the we had to rate for child friendliness we believe a rating of 8 may be appropriate.
