 We visited Ayr campsite, knowing that whilst it had gone through a refurb, the amenities block were still closed.

The site was only half open, and in the open half there were still quite a few pitches empty. We were greeted by a friendly warden who also helped me with an air pump to top up the pressure in the tyres.

On the edge of the River Ayr, the site has a peaceful setting, and has flat, large hardstanding and service pitches. Wifi signal was poor on our pitch although TV and 4G signal was ok.

The site is approx. A 15m walk to Ayr city centre and pubs/cafés along a nice riverside walk, and there are some lovely cycle paths along the esplanade to the Robbie Burns birthplace and also to Prestwick / Troon.

Also there are good links by train to Glasgow, with some great architecture.

Can see it will be a really popular site once fully opened.

 Wonderful helpful welcome to this tranquil inner town location.

Site was impeccably maintained and it’s location is a great base for all who like walking or cycling.

Great choice of restaurants within walking distance not to mention the Ayr harbour, beach and National cycle route.

A Gem of a location and well worth a visit.

 We had a pleasant weekend at this small and level site. It is quiet yet it is close to the town centre and the beach, both of which can be reached by a riverside walk.

Facilities block was kept spotless but it is a bit old and tired. It was difficult to mop the floors because of the tiling, so that end of the toilet block was often very damp.

The staff were friendly.

 We enjoyed our one night here using the CAMC "free night" offer. A very warm welcome from the Duty Manager. The site is surrounded by trees and has no views out, but the autumn colours are attractive; choose your pitch carefully if you want morning or evening sun.

Very quiet in the evening - just birdsong. This is the only CAMC site where we've got the Wi-Fi. Children were not using the play area but were having fun cycling round the site.

There are excellent walks along the River Ayr in the grounds of Craigie House and the College - we walked as far as Dalmilling Golf Course before turning back, the dog absolutely loved it.

We laughed at the review that said "The central block needs to be. Knocked down and rebuilt. The showers in the male section had the worst shower I have used in my entire life. " No need to worry!

The toilet block is spotlessly clean, the showers are not the dreaded push-button ones & the water is hot & powerful; and I can live with pink tiles. My criticism would be that there are only 4 women's showers for 99 pitches and even in autumn on a nearly empty site, they were all in use before the 10:30 cleaning closure - the site needs fewer modesty cubicles & more showers. (The lease came up for renewal not long ago, there'd be no investment while the site's future was in doubt. )

A huge Morrisons is in walking distance & has cheap fuel.

 The mixed reviews for this site made me think twice about booking it but as we are CAMC members and have used numerous club sites over many years felt reassured to book.

No need to worry. Well established site (with an impressive array of mature trees) in the town so easy walking distance to all Ayr has to offer.

Large, flat, well drained pitches (it’s been very wet over the last few days) and clean facility block (with private basins which we both really appreciate). What more can you ask for?

I grew up in this area but haven’t visited for about 30 years. The High Street no longer has the big stores I remember but the rest of the town is unchanged and the seafront and harbour improved.

If you have children the Heads of Ayr Farm Park (not walking distance but an easy cycle) looks like a great day out.

We had a good visit to nearby Dumfries House where the gardens were beautiful and the lunch in the cafe was very good.

 First time we’ve came to Ayr and honestly not too impressed by this site at all. Reasonably sized site around 90 pitches and grounds could do with a bit of a revamp.

Untidy and overgrown in areas. Service points are old and basic. Not really much in the way of views.

The main issue is the facilities. The central block needs to be refurbished or better still, knocked down and rebuilt. They are old, a bit dingy (modern lighting would help) and the lack of water pressure is a major issue.

The showers in the male section had the worst shower I have used in my entire life. This is not first of the CAMC sites I’ve been to in the last year that has disappointed. Standards of acceptance of CAMC sites has fallen so much I won’t be renewing my membership at the end of the year.

On a positive, if you want to access Ayr, the 15 minute walk into Ayr is pleasant, but that does not make up for the facilities.

I won’t be returning.

 Been a long time since we’ve been here. Lovely staff and good sized pitches. Plenty walks for dog.

Short walk into town. Facilities spotless.

Plenty places to eat in town. Nice and quiet
