Keep a lazy eye on the kids and the canines as they frolic in the dappled shade of a clear, burbling stream at Hillend Camping, a peaceful, no-frills camping space surrounded by woodland. Leave the stress of the modern world behind as you stretch out in the sunshine and feel grass crunch underfoot on your generous non-electric grass pitch tucked away in a secluded location in rural Ayrshire. There is plenty of space between the pitches, and they rest on a peaceful smallholding far enough from the towns to be tranquil yet close enough to afford quick access to shops, pubs, eateries and transport services. Pitch a tent, park a caravan, or relax on a solo plot on this intimate campsite, with just ten pitches. Dogs are welcome, and the owners encourage barbeques.
