 Lovely welcome, nice clean facilities.
Dog friendly, dog walks on site plus nice beaches close by to give them a run.
Lots to do in the area.
Disappointed we could not see the castle without paying £13 each.
Would definitely go again.

From the moment we pulled up to the gate until we left the staff were just so helpful.
The site has something for everyone. Our spot had a grandstand view of the Isle of Arran.
The dog walking is awesome. The beach is fantastic.
The castle is well worth a visit. The whole site is clean & well maintained.
Overall a fantastic experience for our 1st visit to the west coast of Scotland.
Just a heads up. If you want to take your car to the islands you need to book well ahead.
We got to Arran as foot passengers but would’ve liked to take the car.
Other than that, even the ferry staff were really friendly and helpful.

On arrival met by a welcoming
And friendly couple Got shown to our pitch and explained where everything was on the site,
Fantastic site to stay in. Everything neat and tidy only used toilets once but very clean again and spotless.
Very quiet site to relax and unwind.
Short walk to castle and beach.
Would recommend this site to anyone.
Only draw back Gentleman supports QPR and I support Fulham. Friendly banter between us both.
This site is a credit to two lovely people and how its run.

Camped with electric. Our pitch was flat and in the middle, although quite a few pitches were sloping.
We had torrential rain and strong winds during the trip, as such the ground was waterlogged.
Views when the rain cleared on our last day were beautiful.
Childrens playground was well used even in the rain by our small child older children may not have made as much use out of it.
Facilities were spotless could not fault.
Walked from site via back of the site path to Culzean castle grounds. Fantastic playground and walks we spent a full day there.
Food we ate at the bbq place in Ayr very good. Also the fish and chip place ( indoor seating) in Girvan which was good.

Just returned from a 4 night safari tent readycamp stay. The tent was really good, comfy beds and fridge, microwave, kettle and cooking utensils all readily available.
Small heater which was great but didn’t heat the tent very much but we took extra fleece blankets to prepare for cooler nights.
The tents overlooked the view across to Isle of Arran with beautiful sunsets. Culzean castle can be reached on foot from the site. Toilets and showers were clean and tidy.
Lovely spot and views. The wardens on site were really friendly. We arrived on foot as we got the train to Ayr and the bus stopped outside camp which was handy.
Also had Tesco groceries drop some supplies off to us which was excellent with having no car until my husband joined us.

Great location right next to the entrance for Culzean castle and Country Park.
A very warm, efficient welcome by the site staff who tell you everything you need to know along with a site map and general info. They even walk up to your pitch so you know exactly where you're going. Fantastic service :)
We had a super spot at the edge of the site looking out over a barley field with the sea and The Isle of Arran for our view. It was fabulous and despite the rainy weather we had a great little holiday.
Superb walks from the site through the park, on to the castle, walled gardens etc. The beach is easy to access from there, another nice walk for the dog to enjoy too.
The site facilities were excellent, the toilets/shower block etc were immaculately clean, all in top working order, in a convenient location.
Everyone who was staying seemed very happy too, we will most definitely back to this fab site and recommend it to our friends.
Thank you Carole, Sean and Teddy.

Nice setting within the estate of the castle. The castle and beach are reached by a 25 minute walk or by using you vehicle.
Some pitches have a fabulous view of the sea and Isle of Arran but be warned you have the view but in the majority of cases you will not have the sun as the pitches are under a good thick canopy of trees.
The site staff are fantastic, friendly and informative.
As is usual for club sites, the facilities are kept immaculately.
The nearest shops, takeaways etc are in Maybole. Let's say it's seen better days but at least there is parking behind the Co-op!
The castle estate has some lovely walks and the villages of Dunure and Maidens nearby, are worth a visit.

I would like to give this site a 5 star rating. The facilities were excellent and the toilets/showers were spotless.
I wish I had asked the ladies (staff) name because I forgot it but she went out of her way to move us to a better pitch in the sun as my mum was cold.
Can't fault it, beautiful place with stunning views and sunsets.
Will definitely go back soon 😁

This was our 3rd visit since the covid virus.
The staff are super friendly and helpful.
We had booked a hard standing pitch for our caravan but unfortunately the night before our visit, a car rolled into our tow car whilst the caravan was attached, damaging both. Gill was very helpful and was able to rearrange our booking so that we could take our tent and pitch on the grass.
They have a limit on how many people could use the toilet and shower block because of the covid distancing rules, but there were rarely any queues.
As ever, it was kept very clean and tidy. We often visit this site.
We like it because of the spectacular views of the sea, so if you are lucky enough to get a sea view pitch you are in for a treat.

This was our 2nd visit since the virus. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The toilet block had some loos, sinks etc blocked off and there was a limit on how many people could use it at once. As ever, it was kept very clean and tidy. The laundry, reception shop and play area are closed.

Some of the pitches are very sloping so come prepared. Probably not that good for children as not much on site for them.
It is great to walk straight into the grounds of Culzean castle (via the ticket office!), and on down the coast to Maidens, but nowhere else is within walking distance. The NTS have reopened the grounds/loos/shop/cafe for takeaways.

I chose this site as our classic Royale caravan used to be owned by Lady Jane Kennedy who's family used to own Culzean castle.
Lovely site and the walk was lovely

Beautiful, peaceful site, plenty of walking round about, and friendly, helpful staff.
Immaculate shower block too.
Can't think of anything we didn't like.

We enjoyed an excellent welcome, clean and well organised covid-safe toilets and showers, as usual from a Camping & Caravanning Club site.
Our grass pitch with electric hook up was a wee bit further from the loos but suited us, better then being in the grass island overlooked by vans.
We walked to the country park but we covered about 6 miles in doing so.
Nice, well run, quiet site!

The National Trust is currently operating a booking system for entry into Culzean and the castle is not open yet, but do check the latest info as I gather that the booking will not be necessary shortly.
