You don't say what part of Scotland you are interested in but check out Brighouse Bay near Kircudbright. This is the exception to my rule as I usually don't like bigger sites but we go here often - especially out of season. Lovely family site, small indoor pool and bar with regular low-key entertainment (peak season), pond for fishing (more for children I would say), play park, smashing woodland area alongside (great for dogs) and a lovely wee beach with a smashing coastal walk. About 5 miles to the nearest town (Kircudbright). Quite a lot to do within a short drive. I would post a link but dont know how to.

Hi Gail
A couple to look at are Drumroamin Farm, Kirkinner, Newton Stewart, we have been here several times, and really enjoy the peace, there`s loads to do round and about.
Sands of Luce, near Stranraer, haven`t been, but drove past last summer, had a look on their website, it looks great, and right next to the beach.

I can recommend Blair Castle Camp site
http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/results3.asp?search=blair+castle&by=sitename
Its our favourite site :)
It has statics for rent too so we go with my mum and dad who hire a static whilst we stay in the tt.
Its got a lovely play area, huge grassed area to play ball games, a shop for essentials with a small games room. On one side there is a beautiful river that has a small sandy area for the kids to play and throw rocks into the river. The dogs can swim in it and the kids are fascinated by it :) You can walk the dogs for miles along it or there is a forest the top of the campsite which is a great walk. Scenery is of course fantastic and its quite central for daytrips out. Though the site is so perfect that leaving is quite hard to go out on daytrips cos the kids are having such a wonderful time and we are relaxing watching them at play that we are all loath to go to all the bother of going out sightseeing lol.
There are pubs in the village which are only a few minutes walk with shops and another recreation ground. We have some wonderful times there :)
