 Fine for an overnight stay as we were travelling in stages. Not a site where I'd stay for longer than a night.
We were shoe horned into the top corner of the site right by someone's house (separated by a high fence but their dog could stick its nose under and yap at our dogs) fortunately we have a motor mover fitted or we'd never have got in.
Site and facilities were very clean site managers were friendly.

We stayed one night on our way up through Scotland, the site was very tidy and very clean.
Impressed with the fact there were dog waste bins everywhere.
The site was well presented with flower displays everywhere, and well trimmed grass.
We only used the motorhome service point, so cannot comment on the other facilities.
So impressed with the site we are booked in for a 3 night stay on our way back down Scotland on our way home.

Nice site with decent facilities.
Friendly owners.
Would use again as a stop over.
As for Gretna itself as a place…. Do not bother! Not great at all.

What an excellent few days staying at Braids, made all the better with superb weather. The site is easy to find and is well situated at the top end of town.
There are a few hotels and some local takeaway food shops. We opted for the Gretna Inn, nearby the outlet village (worth a visit for the bargain hunters). The Inn offered decent priced food and a fine range of beers.
Our caravan pitch was well situated to the showers and toilets - both very clean and well equipped.
Staff were very friendly and available to resolve any issues for those staying over.
Managed to spot a famous personality on site, .
Well worth a visit, we will come back again.

Stayed here before, and like the first time, we were not disappointed with the site.
Site was clean and Peaceful close to amenities.
Owners friendly and greet you on arrival to explain the Dos and don'ts, not many don'ts I might add.
If driving up to Scotland this is a good stop off point to chill and relax.

Friendly owner who took a last minute booking over the phone while I was returning home from S. England with a new to me caravan. I was heading to ferry in Scotland and realised I was not going to make it as weather was terrible.
Trying to catch a site still open was very difficult and when I phoned Braids it was the owner himself who answered and told me he would take me as a V late check in once I explained my situation.
I checked in late and was gone early, owner met me on arrival and showed me to a handy site as I did not want to disturb people with my odd hours.
Site had lots of long terms as far as I could see and even though out of season at least a few other guests.
Handy site to village, Good clean toilet and shower block with a great hot shower (cost extra but very little and lasted longer than I needed)
Most importantly it was open when I needed it (out of season) and was tidy with a good facility block that was heated and with a good shower.
Handy to main route for me BUT far enough off it to be quiet. Same for distance to shops in village.
I cant really comment to Child Friendliness so have gave N/A

Very handy for the motorway. Pub/restaurant within walking distance. Very clean facilities with also a wash-up area.
Very friendly reception offered to wait for us if we arrived late (we didn’t)
Very good size hardstanding pitch although those little bits of loose grit needed sweeping out of the motorhome before I walked about in my socks!
Value for money marked down because for a one night quick stopover we never make full use of facilities and still pay as much per night as those staying a week - same everywhere though.

Nice quiet stay and plenty in area to do and explore. Pitches were quite private and adequate sized.
Staff were very helpful and courteous. Good facilities and grounds were kept very tide.
I hope to revisit next year and spend a little longer there.
Very satisfied with choice of site and I had a really good holiday

This site was brilliant. We really enjoyed our stay. The site was clean and very friendly
We had a problem with our wardrobe door and Tim went out of his way to help us resolve it
The location was great plenty of tourist attractions nearby
Had a meal in the hotel next door on our last evening and that was fantastic
Would definitely visit the site again if in the area

This site was ideally located for a wedding we were attending at Gretna. We were easy within walking distance of the Anvil, a Coop and a chip shop
The site was very clean, well maintained and everything was accessible, you are provided with a key, so everything feels very secure and safe.
The wardens were helpful and friendly.
The only issue for us was the lack of a dog walking area, which wont be an issue to everyone who stays.
The Braids is in the middle of a residential area so the only walks were around streets or along the main road.
You need a 20p coin for the shower, which caught us out on the first night.

Just back from a two night break at this lovely site.
Toilets block were very clean and showers were very good, well worth the 20p.
Staff were very helpful and friendly.
Easy walk to the Outlet village and the local bars.

A very clean and tidy site. All the facilities were spotless clean. Shower is 20p with loads of hot water.
The pitch we were allocated was hard standing but not level. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A book and dvd exchange in a well equipped information hut.
The only downside for us was the location. It is situated in a housing estate with no real country side around.
There was not any nice walking area nearby. We had a large motorhome so did not wish to drive around. Anyone with a caravan can visit some of the tourists places nearby.
There is a bar next door and take aways are not too far away.
There is quite a bit of consistent road noise.
