Our second visit to this wonderful site and another fantastic week enjoyed by all. The locate is second to none and managed to pitch on the front row so only a stride away from the beach for the children.

Wardens are busy, but also friendly and cannot do enough to help should you need it.

No pubs near by and the one that was open in port Logan is now closed, nearest are now dummore. Very friendly locals when we called for a beer.

We also visited the harbour town of Port Patrick and ate in the Crown, excellent food and great hosts, well worth a drive to if you love sea food.

All in all a brilliant site and loads for the kids to do while the adults relax and enjoyed the sunshine.

Having read very good reviews of this site, we were a little disappointed upon arrival to find half the site closed but this was due to localised flooding on parts of the site after heavy rain. One of the two toilet blocks was also closed but apparently, that was because the site was quiet. This meant a long walk to the other block depending on your pitch. We were given a choice of pitches and chose one facing the sea, a mere 50 or 60 metres away. Unfortunately, after a day, the area around our unit became flooded and we were seriously concerned about trench foot! However, the toilet and shower block had the benefit of underfloor heating and were cleaned every day, the dogs were welcomed-but beware, lots of rabbits on site!-and the staff helpful.

The shop had minimal provisions; not just because of the time of year but no room for much more even when busy and no shops within walking distance. Stranraer is about 20 miles away, a good sized town with a good variety of shops.

There are some good walks from the site and the wardens were helpful in information about these. It is in a really lovely position and so nice to go to sleep listening to the sea. There is a good games room and outdoor play area for children. It was obvious that the site is very popular as many of the people there were returning visitors. Galloway Forest is a lovely place to visit; we had problems with our unit whilst there, so investigating the surrounding area was difficult but we shall certainly return-in drier conditions!

In a word - fantastic.

What has been said before can only confirm is so true. Site is right by the beach, facilities are immaculate, wardens are top notch.

The area is well worth exploring. Port Logan is a few miles away, pub closed for renovation when we went. Port Patrick much livelier with several hotels, bars, cafes. Really lovely little harbour too.

Stranraer has couple of supermarkets and a nice town of shops. Not good for parking though as all carparks have height barriers.

This is a top site - will definitely go back and can't recommend highly enough.

Pitched up for a week for a relaxing break. Plenty of pitches to choose although mostly grass with just a few hardstanding nearer the toilets.

We chose a sea facing view on the second level which was just lovely and my only down point is I don't really like pitching on grass, (the grass goes everywhere and our car is not great if the grass is wet which it was) never mind was worth it for the view.

Very well kept site, however not too manicured and all quite natural, toilets and showers kept to good caravan club standard although it does get a little muddy due to the wet grass.

This site is great for kids with bikes and also has a playpark and a teenagers pool room. There are also rabbits everywhere, great to watch. Very friendly wardens, chip and fish van on a Tuesday which proved popular and was very good.

A good day out is to the Mull of Galloway with a lighthouse and a lovely tearoom and gift shop with wonderful views.

You really have to take all your provisions with you as there is only a wee shop in Sandhead so better to stock up first.

This is our second time at this site and we would most certainly go back, very unspoiled and relaxing.

We stayed on this site for 2 nights and really enjoyed our stay. The site is right on the coast with the sea being only a few yards walk away.

You can walk uninterrupted for miles, very well suited for dog owners.

The pitches are well spaced and divided by gorse bushes.

The Elsan Toilet and washroom facilities are very clean and tidy.

The site is very well kept. There is a small shop but it is very limited in stock.

The site wardens are very friendly and informative.

It was very quite on our stay with only a few caravans and motorhomes on site, just as we like it.

We do believe it gets a lot busier in the school holiday period. We will def visit this site again.

Lovely site right on the beach, ideal for a relaxing away from it all break. Nothing much around so take plenty of food etc shop has fresh rolls, milk etc fish van visits midweek but we were only there for long weekend.

Wardens very helpful and polite even although had problems with electrics when we were there but did not spoil our weekend. Toilets nice and clean. Would recommend a visit to Port Patrick lovely wee town with plenty of eating places and dog friendly, would be lovely in summer.
