The site

A small, weather-exposed site with the best evening light of any pitch we have recorded in the south-west of Scotland. Bring a windbreak and check the forecast; the site closes at short notice in gales.

Facilities amount to a shower block, a washing-up sink and a recycling point. The owner is a former marine engineer and will help with almost anything electrical, which is not a facility you can book but is worth knowing.

Nearby

  • Tidal bay directly below the site, safe swimming at slack water
  • Gatehouse of Fleet for provisions, nine miles
  • Dark sky park within a forty-minute drive
