Really relaxing week in beautiful surroundings. Good base for exploring some lovely Scottish towns and fishing villages. Beach was lovely, could spend hours just watching the surfers, was really surprised how many there were. Staff at the Park were always cheerful, friendly and helpful, as well as extremely professional. - Pease Bay
