camp sites in south west Scotland.
« on: 19:34:21, 13/08/13 »
Anyone got any recommends please?  Preference would be a lesser commercialised site. No pitch No's etc , just find a quiet corner and pitch etc. But not essential. I will have 2 small dogs with me so that needs factoring in. Coastal paths or forest's to wander would be a bonus ;;)).

first week of September if that makes a difference.

thanks in advance.

regards

I thought Caldons was closed - it was deserted last time I passed through - about a year ago.  Soooo - I checked on Google and it is indeed permanently closed - but - you can camp there. This would be a wild camp since there's no facilities at all. There's a small campsite down the road at Bargrennan, though which is next to a pub and will take a few tents.  Midgies are a bit mad around there, though....
