Barnsoul Caravan & Camping

A lovely peaceful location with wonderful views, however the site is still under development and there was some noise from construction but it wasn't intrusive. Friendly and helpful staff. The Spacious clean and airy 4 berth cabin with decked area to the front and rear. Master bedroom is ensuite with shower and toilet and a small double bed. Kitchen fairly well equipped (no microwave). The second bedroom is 2 single beds suitable for children. The lounge area is comfortable with plenty of seating. Nice touch of a welcome box with the essentials along with a fresh pint of milk. We were blessed with dry sunny weather when we stayed and we sat out on the decking in the evening this was spoilt by the dust kicked up by vehicles from the temporary limestone road surface which coated my car with dust and made us retreat inside with our hands covering our drinks. I guess the only solution to this is to pave the road with asphalt. The nearest pubs and services are in Dumfries approximately 20 mins drive away. Enjoyable stay and a great place to start your exploration of this beautiful area of Scotland.

We are visiting from Australia and hired 3 cabins for a week. With 5 kids. Sadly, it’s just cabins.. not a swing, slide or space communally gather… Lucky we pre purchased board games, which we left in the cabin for the next sad souls who rock up thinking the kids will have space to kick the soccer ball! Spoiler alert, they won’t! We went on a family walk (14 of us) just to be disappointed by the construction works stopping most paths. The noise from the machinery wasn’t so bad but the 7am wake up on Saturday morning from the rubbish being removed wasn’t great. I get the eco thing but the eco stuff doesn’t cut the mustard when it comes to keeping the lodge clean for a week.. oh and be warned the office is closed on Sunday and most of Saturday.. No milk when we arrived and hadn’t had their delivery. For what we paid I was underwhelmed. Grateful for the time together with family but wouldn’t return for a second time. If you don’t have kids and just want to hang in a cabin, this is the place for you.

A really relaxing and comfortable stay at Landal Barnsoul in the Orka 1.0 Spa lodge. The setting is beautifully peaceful and quiet — waking up to birds in the morning felt genuinely calming. The lodge itself is finished to a high standard, with modern décor throughout. The staff were also able to decorate the room for a celebration which was amazing. The staff were very helpful, which added to the overall experience. We didn’t manage the longer scenic walks due to the weather, but even a stroll around the park felt tranquil and well kept. A couple of minor downsides — The heating system takes a little getting used to, but once set up properly it works very well. The cinema room was closed during our stay, and the access roads are a bit bumpy, so best driving slow when entering and leaving. My tip would be to take slippers or thick socks — the lodge has hard flooring which can feel a bit cold, especially in the morning 🥶 Overall very nice would recommend 👌🏾

Absolutely love this place. Thoroughly enjoyed our Thursday to Monday which is the first time doing those days. This is our second visit and just as good as the first. Was great to just relax and chill. The wooded area is good for walking the dog. We will be booking again. The accommodation has everything you need in it.
