Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: Wide open site with many facilities such as golf, restaurant etc. Quite easy access from the motorway if pulling a caravan. Annan town only 10 minutes away so, after unhitching the caravan, you can pop to Tesco to refill the car with cheapish fuel and buy reasonably priced good food (it is a superstore so big).
Disliked: The only chemical point I could find was next to the Motorhome point - a long walk from the caravan carrying the container. Grey waste and water much closer.

Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: Getting close to nature with pleasant walks (not too long as the dog is getting on now), wildlife that comes to visit (loads of birds and at dusk a hare racing around!) and a nice welcome with helpful staff. I spent a pleasant hour and a half on the golf course - its not St Andrews standard but still good fun. I hope the trout in the river are still enjoying the 2 balls I hit in there! All the facilities were functional and clean. Our pitch was level no need for ramps. Some pitches seemed to have small slope.
Disliked: A bit of a walk to the shower block. The toilet block was close by.

Liked: Although this site was medium/large. It was very peaceful and the backdrop of the castle setting was fabulous. The staff where all helpful polite and friendly. The site facilities where spotlessly clean. We only booked for one night, but wished we had booked for another. There was pods, caravans,tents and campervans, all catered for. The wee shop was well stocked for every day essentials. Great location, great facilities, friendlt staff and lovely setting

Liked: We were cloe to the toilet block and the pitches are good and the area is very nice with lots of trees and very picturesque. We will definitely be back, hopefully next week on our way home.
Disliked: I disliked the fact that we had to go to the castle to shower. It would be good if the toilet blocks had a few showers them. Also the showers in the main block worked for a couple of minutes and then there was no pressure at all and was only a dribble so we had to move showers which was annoying while naked.
