I have posted a review on New England Bay CC site on the Mull of Galloway.  But for those of you who have not considered that part of Scotland I feel compelled to tell you that you are missing out on a piece of heaven.  If you love spacious pitches, beautiful countryside, wild flowers , the smell of the sea, peace and tranquility but with places to vist and things to do nearby.  If you love walking, cycling, horse riding or fishing, if you have children, pets or are a couple.  If you like visitng a nice pub with good food just a short walk or bike ride away.  If you enjoy discovering a big city with lots of history , shopping and  culture (Belfast short crossing away and easy day trip from this site).  Then this is the site for you.   However if you would be kind enough to aviod May half-term next year when we plan to visit again that would be appreciated.

The above post was given by the Scottish Tourist Board....



Sounds lovely though. Long way away for me though, but does sound good.

It does sound a bit like an advert doesn't it?  But it was that good!

Well there you go another attempt at describing this site but sadly still not enough superlatives to do it justice. Nice try though.  New Englnad bay is simply the best.

For a licence dated 1997 or later you must add together the plated max weight of the caravan and trailer, if the total is 3500 or less you can tow it. You may even tow a caravan with a MAM greater than the cars unladen mass the restriction was removed in 2013

It is certainly a lovely site, we were there for a week at Spring Bank and had a great time.

New England Bay is indeed lovely but my very, very favourite campsite in Dumfries and Galloway - and I only just discovered it after visiting the area for years - is Castle Point in Rockcliffe.  The views are glorious, especially from the tent area and if you want to recharge your batteries in beautiful suroundings with lovely coastal walks, then this site hits the spot.
