 This site is fantastic, so well run for a very large site. Spotless clean. Just one problem for us.

My husband went to the bar for a pint but they only take cards. He doesn't have a card, he only ever uses cash so it was a bit embarrassing for him to leave and come back to me for my card. He was disappointed that is card only site especially as a lot of older people only use cash.

 This is our second visit to Sands of Luce. The site is excellent and very good facilities.

However today was the first good weather day of our visit and it was spoilt by two 'expletive' motorbikes riding up and down the beach for over 4 hours making a racket and spoiling our enjoyment of the beach which is the main reason to visit this site.

While the site cannot control who uses the beach as there is public access it has spoiled our visit and while it happened on our last visit in May, which I ignored, it clearly is a frequent occurrence as it has happened again on this visit. Perhaps the site owners need to campaign to restrict access to the beach and ban motorcycles. A few well placed landmines should do the trick. 😁

It does make me think if we will return.

Apart from the antisocial motorbikes the site is the excellent and the food in the Lighthouse clubhouse also excellent and good value.

 Great site. This is a large static holiday site, but don't let that put you off. The caravan and motorhome touring area has level hard standing pitches which all have electric, water and grey waste. But best of all, most pitches have a fantastic view over Luce Bay.

There is easy access to a really great beach which is sand and about 4 miles long. The tide goes out quite far and the wide flat beach is great for dogs.

Also on site there is a nice bar and restaurant with both inside or outside seating. This is about 10 mins walk from the touring area.

There is also a clean and modern toilet block next to the touring area and a mh service point as well. We didn't use it but there is a laundry facility as well with decent looking machines.

All in all a cracking site. We were there out of school holiday season, and it was a restful break.

 Another visit. Something keeps drawing us back to this site when we want to get away.

Years of visiting this site, often a few times a year, knowing of the presence of Adders but never having sighted any, until this year.

We saw one on our last visit, in the middle of the road and again on this visit in the middle of the road into the touring area. You need to keep your wits about you.

 Yet another stay at this great site.

Those visiting this site need to be aware that there are adders in the dunes to the front of the touring area, so don’t allow your dogs to roam in here. We encountered a young adder on the road at the Sandhead side of the site.

It appeared not to be moving until we got closer, had the dogs been loose they may have been bitten

 Warm & informative welcome at Reception, never saw anyone checking on the touring area.

30-odd touring pitches in the middle of an enormous & expanding holiday park, close to a beautiful long, wide, clean, sandy & sunny beach which the dog loved (ideal for land sailing). £20-30pn for a fully serviced hardstand (depending on season and days of week).

Choose your own pitch - when we arrived the few pitches left were at the back: no sea views & shaded by evening. So next morning, when some Motorhomes had packed up & left, we moved to a sunny pitch with sea views before the afternoon arrivals.

All pitches very exposed to strong winds from all directions. Wi-Fi free only for first 24 hours, a faff to set up, so we used our mobile data.

Excellent recycling close by.

Facilities were odd - one cold tap sink and 3 hot tap sinks, so you must move sinks unless you like to wash your hands in cold water or brush your teeth in hot water, and I'd have preferred a modesty cubicle in place of one of the many WCs. Showers free; two of them overflowed hugely for whatever reason & the manky mop couldn't deal with the pool of standing water, so I had to stand in it to do my teeth. A squeegee is more effective. Motion activated lights on a timer, so night-time showers must quick before the lights go out. Free hairdryer.

We did not eat at the site restaurant or go to any of the evenings' shows, but the menu looked ok. Many static caravans lovingly tended by their owners, with plants a-plenty.

We'd come back again, but as part of a longer trip, not for a holiday based here. A car is easier than a Motorhome to explore the North and South Rhins of Galloway with the many narrow back roads, but we visited Logan Botanics, Port Logan, castle Kennedy, Portpatrick, and got fish & chips in Stranraer (with its daunting one-way system).

 Another week at this great site which continues to grow. More static caravans have been added and a change to the beach road path.

Lots of planting adding to the site ambience.

Weather was good for the week in contrast to what we had been getting.

Paid one visit with the dogs to the Tigh na Mara in Sandhead, unfortunately it is becoming increasingly expensive so might have been our last visit and will instead solely use the on site bar.

 As usual we had a great holiday on our annual go to site. Weather was kinder this year and we got to enjoy the local beach.

The site never stands still and have introduced even more statics and have additional touring pitches where once was a play area.

There is the addition of a gravel path, linking up with the beachside road into Sandhead village, avoiding the beach if you choose.

The bridge over the stream has been replaced, as this was damaged beyond use last season.

 Arrived at the site 12. 30, had a very warm welcome from reception and told about facilities. We drove round the touring area and were lucky to get a pitch on the front row.

The pitches are very level and extremely large which allows you to put up an awning still leaving room to sit outside and room for your car. The ground was hard but with a good hammer it was easy to peg the awning.

The staff on site were very pleasant and extremely helpful, the site was kept clean and tidy at all times it was a pleasure not to have the normal from the big two clubs of kubotos passing by at 08 in the morning cutting grass and emptying bins. All rubbish went to a recycling area which was a great idea.

The site is a 5 minute walk from a brilliant beach which is seen fully at low tide and it is massive, the dogs loved and so did we, the views across the bay are magnificent.

We went round to the bar one night and had a couple drinks well worth a visit, this site is good value for money.

 Back to our go to place for a quiet break with a fantastic beach and sea view.

This will probably be our last trip if the season with the van.

Our next trip is to a cottage which was rescheduled due to Covid.

Finally celebrating my birthday almost a year late.
