The sofa was quite stained and the carpet near it was lifting, but overall, the caravan was in decent condition, so not too bad!

We really enjoyed our stay! The site has loads of kids activities and the beach and caves are just a short drive away. Climbing Criffel was a great adventure too.
Emma
Date of stay: 28th August 2024
Overall, we had a decent stay. The caravan was clean, but there were a few little issues like the broken curtain pole in the living area and the tatty sweeping brush. The TVs are pretty basic, but having two toilets was a real plus for us. The three bedrooms suited our family perfectly, especially with two teenagers. Not perfect, but wed come back!

Although the caravan was clean they was some bits that needed sorting only minor things like the curtain pole in living room section was broken the whole thing could of done with changing.The TVs are basic.The sweeping brush to clean floor was tatty.We had 2 toilets which is always a bonus. 3 bedrooms which was perfect as we have 2 teenagers 1 boy 1 girl.

Date of stay: 1st November 2023
The lodge looked great and the area around it was really pretty. Beds were a bit too hard for us and the settees felt too low and sank when sat on. The en suite sink kept blocking and despite reporting it, nothing was done. The site was spotless, but the lodge itself needed better cleaning and some air duct maintenance. Still, we enjoyed our stay overall.

Nice place, would visit again

We had a lovely stay at this holiday park, perfect for our little ones. The location right by the beach is just stunning and the kids loved the activities and swimming pools. The staff were genuinely friendly, polite and always ready to help, which made a big difference. On the flip side, our new-style caravan didnt quite match the pictures - it looked a bit tired and wasnt thoroughly cleaned when we arrived, which was a bit of a let-down. The restaurant was quite slow and it was often a bit grubby when we went in, though the rest of the site was spotless. Wed definitely return and recommend it for families with primary school children!

Great experience, we loved it here!
Harriet
Date of stay: 31st October 2023
We recently checked out this spot right in the middle of the entertainment complex, next to the arcade and honestly, its a pretty good place to relax. Sure, its on the pricier side, but the lighting and decor are simple yet classy enough to make you feel comfortable without feeling stuffy. We had a really fun time there, especially since they seem to change their lunch menu quite often and its always worth trying. We went for dinner once and it was solid. Breakfast, though, was a bit disappointing - why dont they include two slices of bread with a traditional breakfast or just tell you upfront? Its a little puzzling. The Costa coffee was a mixed bag; one day my son got the best hot chocolate and loved it, but the next day it was watery and tasteless. The lattes were similar. Still, overall, a nice place if youre not keen on cooking in your caravan and want a break from it all.

We really enjoyed the caravan! Perfect for our kids and dog. Only downside was the bathroom door didnt lock, but overall, it was a lovely stay.
Harper
Date of stay: 7th June 2023
Really enjoyed our stay, the caravan was super cosy and roomy. Only tiny gripe was the curtains falling off.
Emma
Date of stay: 28th May 2023
We absolutely loved this lodge! The sea views were stunning and the open-plan living space made it feel so airy and welcoming. The large decking was perfect for outdoor meals and having two bathrooms was a real bonus. Beds were comfy with lovely covers and plenty of towels. Would stay again!
Emma
Date of stay: 19th May 2023
The staff casually eating ice cream while we checked in was a bit odd and it wouldve been helpful to have clearer instructions for the vans heating and TV. The entertainment programme promised bingo, but sadly, no bingo. Still, the pool was lovely and spotless!
Harper
Date of stay: 14th May 2023
Overall, we had a decent stay. The caravan was clean and well-kept when we arrived, which was great. A couple of curtains were hanging loose, but we sorted them easily. The oven only had one rack and no trays, but it wasnt a big deal. Would stay again!
Harper
Date of stay: 7th May 2023
We found the holiday home quite comfortable - it was warm, clean and well-equipped. The central heating was easy to control, which was a bonus. Everything in the kitchen worked fine, though we brought our own frying pan and knives since we like them a certain way. The TV was a bit hit-and-miss; some days the channels were perfect, other times not so much, maybe because of the wind. Still, wed stay again!

Cozy place, would return
Emma, Dumbarton
Date of stay: 27th July 2020
We stayed in a lovely, spacious caravan that felt really homely. It was well-stocked with all the crockery, cutlery and kitchen stuff you might need. The beds were spotless and fresh and the new carpet in the lounge made it super cosy. Only a couple of tiny issues- the toilet seat kept breaking and the TV remote was a bit temperamental, but nothing too bad!

Date of stay: 20th March 2020
We had such a lovely week here! The park is stunning and really made our stay special. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout, which we appreciated. The only funny moment was when I accidentally walked into a door that said pull - awkward! Definitely made the receptionist smile, I bet. Great experience overall.

We had a fantastic weekend at the Solway View 3 Lodge. Its really spacious and feels just like being at home. The views are stunning, perfect for relaxing. The fridge freezer wasnt great, but we reported it. Honestly, loved it so much we've already booked again!

This caravan was pretty lovely overall, though the furniture had some peeling.

Date of stay: 23rd September 2019
We recently stayed in the 3-bedroom Nith vans with our family of 3 adults and 5 kids. The vans were absolutely spot-on-clean, spacious and really comfortable. The whole site had a relaxed vibe and we loved trying out some of the activities available; the kids especially enjoyed themselves. The pool was a bit chilly, but still nice to dip into. A definite highlight was walking down to the lighthouse - not a sandy beach, but a lovely stroll and then we wandered back through the village. Since it was our first visit, we didn't explore much outside the site, but theres plenty to see nearby. Already booked again for next year, so we must have enjoyed it!
