 Many things to recommend this site.
Brilliantly situated, couple of minutes from the motorway.
Designer outlet within walking distance. Small supermarket minutes away.
We loved the huge number of Rabbits around the site!

We have just bought our caravan in the past year. We decided to tour around the Dumfries Galloway area. We checked the reviews on Braids caravan site near Gretna.
First class, can’t find any fault with this site. I will certainly visit Braids again. Everything you need for a nice quiet chilled out experience.
Facilities excellent, staff very polite and will go the extra mile to help out on any problems you may have.
There are quite a few permanent caravans on site, it is obvious this has become a popular location and it is through the hard work that has been put into keeping this site at a very high standard, clean tidy everything works and attention to detail is obvious.
We spent three nights at Braids and moved to another caravan site. This site was nowhere near Braids standard. If I had known and an expensive caravan site by the way, it certainly was not worth the money. I would have stayed at Braids.
I would like to thank them for a great relaxing 3 day stay. Good luck for the future.

Good location just on outskirts of Gretna.
Very friendly staff and site in reasonable condition.
Only downside point is that you need 20p to use shower as we did not have any on arrival

This Park is a little Gem. Nice and quite and very clean, toilets spotless Showers well worth the money again CLEAN and SPOTLESS, and nothing was too much trouble from the owners.
Even when for some reason our water level alarm went off in our Motorhome they were there to lend a hand. Turned out I've forgot to fill it up.
They even have Mr Whippy come around if you fancy an IceCream.
When we left after our stay they were there to see us off and wish a safe trip home.
We will definitely be back for another stay. £75. 00 for 3 nights and with EHU and Free WiFi
Well worth the money.

We recently stayed at Braids Caravan Park, we had a fantastic few days.
The site, showers and toilet facilities were absolutely spotless.
The site owners were very friendly, helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
We will definitely be going back in the future and would definitely recommend the site.

Just spent a sat night at the braids site. Great site clean showers and facilities, very helpful hosts will call again soon.
The site is easily reached from m6 a good stop off for exploring scotland or england.
I called on way back from england on my way to the ferry at cairnryan.
Will definitely use the braids for a few nights soon

Very easy to find, just off the motorway on the edges but still within Gretna itself and perfectly placed for exploring the Scottish Borders as we were doing and within walking distance of the outlet village and plenty of hotel restaurants, takeaways and shops.
Barriers into the site required a key fob and use of facilities required a key, both provided on check in. The new owners/ former wardens were lovely, friendly and helpful without being intrusive.
It is a beautifully tended and secluded site that gave plenty of protection from the Yellow Weather Warning conditions we unfortunately endured, thankfully meaning our caravan awning was in no danger from the storms. The roads all around the area flooded but our hard standing fully serviced pitch drained very quickly and in conditions only slightly less severe would have remained perfectly dry.
The toilets were not ultra modern but had good size cubicles each with their own basin, they were freshly painted and sealed, of good utilitarian quality and whenever we used them were always absolutely spotlessly clean and freshly scented. Showers were in a separate part of the block, cost 20p but gave plentiful hot water.
Dogs are welcome but unfortunately there is no room for a dog walk/ run area on site and a visiting funfair had taken over the area just down the road that was suggested to us, so it was 15 mins road walk to a suitable open space for exercising them which was our only negative point.
Over all a really good site, very quiet at this time of year. We would certainly use them again. I wish the new owners every success I their new venture.

We used this site as a stopover when heading over to the West Coast.
Nice warm welcome and our pitch was allocated to us. We think this site has quite a few one night stays so the pitches are slightly narrower, with no space for an awning.
There are awning spaces available if you require it. Some of the grass pitches have concrete pads to keep your unit level. Showers and toilets are very clean.
The showers are 20p and you get ample time for this money. Co-Op is a few hundred yards away and several hotels for eating out.
There appears to be plenty to do around this area, and we hope to return for a longer stay.
Whilst we were there the couple on the next pitch were getting married at the Old Blacksmith's Shop which was very exciting and made our day.

Site is ok, but was not keen on the pitch we were on, it was pretty cramped, and it felt really close to the vans on either side when compared to other sites.
Toilets were clean.
Staff are very friendly and site is close to shops and restaurants.

Very clean quiet and well run campsite with hard standing pitches separated by hedges.
Excellent facilities with very hot showers which were well worth the 20p cost and an immaculate area for washing up also with hot water.
A reasonable price for such a good site.
They even have a book exchange.

This was our 3rd stay / stopover at Braids in the last 12 months.
It is a very well kept site. With toilet blocks kept immaculately clean.
The local Co-Op is only a couple of hundred metres away, with the main shopping outlet just a bit of a further walk.

This site is kept immaculate, David & Paul are so helpful, they informed us of all the local amenities and places to visit.
The on site facilities are kept so clean and smell fresh every time we walked into them. There has been a fantastic face lift of the whole site since our visit last summer. Well done guys. I have to mention Tim, who works tirelessly to keep on top of the grounds. It is paying off.
A lovely visit & will be back soon.
