Brighouse Bay, Kirkcudbright camp site is in a good location for days out and exploring the Dumfries and Galloway coastline. It has everything you need for a couple of days without moving from the site (provided you shop well before arrival).

It is a very busy and noisy campsite, and some pitches 'crammed in' people, so they were traipsing across pitches. On every visit we have made to this site the electricity always trips out on the whole of the campsite. Toilet blocks are heavily used causing problems to the hot water supply at peak times, and some parents were allowing unsupervised access to toilet blocks, which also means being faced with dirty, unflushed facilities. Unsupervised dog walking has meant we have had to clean up after other peoples dogs being walked by their kids.

We had a really good holiday at Brighouse Bay campsite. My kids are 6 & 8 and they loved the freedom. They were fishing in the ponds every day with their nets. We camped on the quiet site and it was ideal for us the views were beautiful. We were lucky that the weather was excellent. The food up in the clubhouse was fine. We did not use the indoor pool because of the good weather. We visited the site at Seaward and used the outdoor pool it looked a lovely site also. The toilet facilities were great. We will definitely go back.

Our first maiden voyage in our new caravan was spent at Kirkcudbright - Brighouse Bay. Apart from the weather, this was a great site for families. The washing facilities were excellent and the site was very clean. Kids can go swimming, play in the games room (although money required). The younger kids enjoyed the play areas and touring vans are well pitched to keep an eye on the little ones. All in all an excellent start to our caravan holidays. This is a 1200 acre site and you don't feel hemmed into a small pitch. Close to the sea, fishing ponds, otters pool and 9 hole golf course. Oliver age 4 loved it.
