 Visited Braids as a stop-off on our way to and from Oban.
It's well located near to the M74 and easy to find. Well appointed and clean loo, wash up and chemical disposal facilities and friendly and attentive site wardens.
It is also only just down the road from the excellent "Devil's Porridge" Museum (well worth a visit).
We will definitely be stopping off here again possibly for a longer stay in the area next time.

Very well kept site, with a friendly atmosphere and helpful / useful wardens / managers.
We were on a stopover with a large motorhome and teenage children and it was just the ticket.
Just off the motorway, with easy access for the large motorhome and an easy walk to the local Co-op (open till 10pm), eateries, etc.
There are warnings about the ampage, but we cooked in our van and watched a movie on the laptop with no problems.
The toilet/shower & wash-up areas were all immiculate. Only small issue was the timer for the lights. Eldest was a wee bit spooked when he took too long for a late night toilet visit :)
Our pitch was £34 for the night and worth it. Highly recommended!

Good Location with easy access to plenty places to eat.
Overall cleanliness was very good and plenty of space on each site. Welcoming helpful hosts.
The facilities were large, clean and secure but you have to remember to take change for showers.
The motorhome servicing space is large with plenty room to service vehicle.

Small secure site, helpful staff.
Clean toilets and shower block. Not noisy when we stayed.
Easy walk to shops and places to eat, there is even a local Chinese that will deliver to site.
Tidy site

Lovely location for visiting Gretna and Gretna Green and shopping centre all in walking distance.
Lovely walk to the estuary and across fields to Gretna Green.
Clean facilities.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Good security. Shame there was no dog walk.

The lady on the camp site was very welcoming. Give us a map for the rest of Scotland which came in useful. Showed us to are pitch in the dark.
Just there the one night. Chemical waste, fresh water and grey all close so made easy.
We have no children so only one rating.

It was good. However, it would have been better if there was water at each electric point.
Little children may be out and under the barriers.
Also the bushes with berries in between each parking bay could be a concern for younger children.
A different choice if bush could have been better.

Great site. Not too far to walk in and grab yourself something to eat or drink.
The wardens are both lovely really helpful giving you maps and general information on your arrival,
The toilets are a bit old and tired showers cost 20p my husband said they were nice and warm though.
Great location lovely people wonderful spot I would highly recommend

Very good site well situated not far from M6 M74
Very clean & tidy bathrooms, with hot water need 20p for showers.
Pitches on chippings spaced apart plenty of room.
Gretna has interesting sites and is a good cycling area
Very much enjoyed our time here
Will be back.

We stayed for just one night as a stop off on our way further up Scotland.
We had a really friendly welcome and were directed to a good pitch.
It's not a rural site and we could see houses and a development site around, but for a stop off, very conveniently a short way from the Motorway, it was just what we wanted.
The loo and shower block is worth a mention - clean, spacious and freshly painted.

Very handy 1 night stop over on our way north. The site manager stayed late to let us in after our long drive into Scotland and the site is very close to Gretna.
A Co-Op and a chip shop are handy and just a 5 minute walk away.
The site itself is well laid out and the facilities are perfectly adequate, with plenty of hot water for our showers.
Would happily return again for a stop over.

Nice clean site. A mix of residential caravans and tourers. Facilities are clean and perfectly adequate, 20p per shower.
A ten minute walk to pubs and restaurants. Large retail outlet within a mile. Friendly owners are very helpful.

Another visit for us and little has changed in the last 12 months.
Still a warm and friendly welcome, quick book in and on the pitch. Showers and loos still kept pristine - we did find the ladies not so in the morning but that was due to other campers and the mess they left so not due to the site. Later in the morning once cleaned they were back to their usual high standards of cleanliness.
There is a brand new Coop supermarket less than 5 minutes walk along the road, still several other small supermarkets and general shops within the area.
We find this a perfect stop off travelling North or South, its just a few minutes off the motorway, straight through the town with good access to the site.
We paid £21 for 2 adults with ehu and incl wifi - showers are etc. Would not hesitate to use again.
