From arrival the site was amazing, it was in a beautiful area amongst the hills and you hear nothing but nature. The facilities were great and had a magical feel about the whole place and the family who run the site were so lovely. I couldn't recommend this place more!

Beautiful and relaxed site

We loved our stay at Balloch O Dee! They took us in last minute and were super friendly and easy to get hold of upon arrival. The facilities were great and the whole site had a relaxed and inclusive vibe. There was lovely scenery surrounding the site and loads of recommended excursions advertised for the local area. A great spot for a romantic getaway in our case, but also very family friendly. We will be back!

Beautiful location, peaceful and well managed site

It's a beautiful location, and the site is peaceful and well managed. The facilities are good, with the really spacious toilets being a unexpected bonus. The is no onsite shop, so campers needs to be self sufficient, but there are supermarkets in Newton Stewart and a small one in Wigtown. We will definitely go again.

Wonderful place

Beautiful place, really can see the ethos behind the campsite and I loved it. A peaceful campsite where you can relax and unwind with great touches, particularly in the toilets, patches of wildflowers, fire pits and free roaming chickens, made it feel like the owners know what camping should feel like. Wonderful.

Excellent

Had a lovely time at Balloch O Dee. Remote location but close enough to local amenities by car. Surrounded by beautiful scenery and plenty to see. Would highly recommend trying this site. The communal cooking area is a lovely touch! James, the site owner, is a lovely bloke, very helpful, and I will definitely return if we venture back to Dumfries & Galloway area.

First time and will use again

Great wee campsite, owners were welcoming on arrival. The site was fairly quiet during our stay so almost felt like wild camping but with the luxury of facilities! Loved having the dug out fire pit. They have bags of logs for £6 but I'd recommend bringing your own as they were very small (atleast half a bag of mostly kindling) but apart from that, all good. 😊

Fantastic stay, will be back
