We stayed here one night in December. It was a really lovley place to stay, with beautiful views across the river. Very peaceful. There are 5 campervan bays, which were all filled by around 6pm, but it didnt feel crowded. The toilets in the carpark are out of order. But during the day I assume the cafe in the carpark must toilets inside for customers.

Would 100% recommend, the toilets were clean and the spot was calm. We arrived late at night and parked on a car parking space as the van spots were taken.

Absolutely rammed with campers. Only 6 or so official spaces but there were loads more campers parked illegally in the car only spaces. A lot of dogs barking and people stood outside their campers talking loudly. The locals must be so fed up with it. I didn't see any one else put money in the donation box either. Far too busy to be a pleasant stay.

What an fantastic place to park up, stunning views and very peaceful. Beaware there are no shops for bits and bobs so make sure you stock up on snacks / soft drinks.

Einer der schönsten Plätze die wir besuchen durften - Leider keine Ver- und Entsorgung doch entschädigt die Ruhe und Lage für vieles

Beautiful spot! Just made it in time before the spots filled up, honest box is great for leaving a donation to the local community and helps you feel totally welcome! Toilets locked at 8pm but the hotel is across the road.

This is a really nice place to stay. Be prepared for you´re not the only on. There were 11 campers that night. Toilets and bin on the spot. Had a good night here. Don´t forget a donation....

Great view, toilet closed for night. Honesty box for donations. Quite a lot of campers, but no problem at all.

Amazing view, we arrived late and it was fairly busy, 5 spaces for vans all day and night, rest of car park can be used for vans until 9am. Toilet block was closed overnight. Gorgeous location, with an honesty box, great for dogs. Will be returning!

Wir kamen bei schlechtestem Wetter und auch erst früh am morgen, gut besetzt, es waren noch einige plätze frei, man musste um 9 uhr den platz verlassen haben, dies wurde auch kontrolliert. empfehlenswert, lediglich die zeitliche Beschränkung ist negativ aufgefallen.

Lovely stop over and lovely food across the road at the Nith. car park is 9pm till 9am unless your lucky and can get one if the gravel spaces where you can stay all day.

5 motorhome parking for full day and plenty of car park lots available from 9pm to 9am. Quiet and nice spot for overnight but nothing much to do here. Max stay 2 nights. Free parking but donation is recommended at £10 per night.

Amazing sunset views across the water with pub opposite and shop/cafe open for brunch/lunch. Toilets open 9am to 4pm. Great place to stay overnight.

We stayed here last night, arrived late at 11pm on a Friday night & still plenty of space. Ideally they want you to park at the end (out of the marked car parking spaces) however you can park in these 9pm -9am. Toilets are on site but locked overnight - unsure what time they close but they were open at 7am this morning. Free to stay but there is an Honesty box & online donation. View is stunning.

Great place for an overnight stop. Plenty of space for campervans. Gorgeous views over the estuary and amazing to watch the bird migration in the morning. We made a donation for our stay. Toilets open 9-4. They were cleaned thoroughly before opening. A great facility.

Lovely spot on river bank. We were lucky to get one of the last two places. Was talking to a local who told me that the money from the honesty box goes into the community so far they have bought 2 defibrillators and give OAPs a Christmas party. So please use the box!

Lovely spot! We arrived about 4pm and got the last spot. There’s room for around 6 campers just at the end of the car park. You can park in the car park spaces after 9pm to 9am if you arrive late. Lots of nice birds to watch over the estuary. Toilets are open 9am till 4pm. Also a little honesty box so make sure you leave a little something. There is a bar/restaurant opposite, we didn’t eat but prices were very reasonable and it was pretty busy so must be good & all following the COVID guidelines.

A great place to stay. We stayed a night in August on our journey south. It was very busy so be prepared to not get a space. Beautiful views along the river.

Beautiful spot with views of the estuary. Clean toilets open 8am-4pm. Friendly local warned us of potential high tides when we arrived so we parked in a lay by he mentioned no more than 200m further downstream. Would recommend!

Lovely place for an overnighter. Was busy when we went, but another camper allowed us to park in front of theirs as they weren't leaving early the next day
