Gymnasium: Our gym contains a variety of exercise machines. Feel fitter, healthier – tone that body! Weights, free weights, exercise bikes and rowers, treadmills and steppers… they’re just waiting for you! Fancy a holiday workout???

Solarium: We like to think the sun always shines at Auchenlarie so pop along and top up that tan!

The Rob n Roll Restaurant & Takeaway is the place to enjoy a drink and a bar meal. Take your pick from a wide of meals from our delicious menu. Eat in our ‘Smuggler’s Tryst‘ – a boat built into the Restaurant – a fantastic, innovative eating experience! On sunny days and warm evenings take a seat on the terrace and make the most of eating in the wonderful fresh air. Craig and his Team have some great specials and children’s options.

Read reviews on Internet and social media. Very well reviewed and thought it would be a good site to try for travelling across from N.ireland, for the first time. I was not disappointed. The site was fantastic and well maintained. Play parks throughout for the kids. Facilities were great and to be on the beach within a few steps of your van, was brilliant.For a busy park it felt nice and quiet, especially during the evenings. Will definitely be back.

5 stars if restaurant was better

Tolan, David - 22/07/2025

Stayed 4 nights with family in gold caravan. Caravan itself was spotless and easy to find in the park. Leisure centre and entertainment was first class. Only disappointment was the restaurant. Went on the first night we arrived and never used again. First red flag was we had to pay in advance before we received our food. Ok for fast food joints but not a restaurant. After a very long wait we received our food and it was shocking. Both myself and oartner ordered beef/chicken wraps. Both plates given to us were like charcoal, really badly burnt and dry. Got them changed over but unfortunately the 2nd attempt wasn’t much better. Even the kids food was dry and overcooked. Auchenlarie is fantastic but definatley look to eat elsewhere.

Hilly but great.

Gordon, Tracy - 20/07/2025

We loved staying here for a long weekend. The pitch was really flat and spacious, the amenities were great, I wish there were a few more showers, there seemed to be queues for them on a daily basis and they could be cleaned more often with the amount of traffic through them. In saying that, we had a really good time. The sports bar was as expected but the veranda off the restaurant was a lovely surprise and the park below for the kids looked fun.We will definitely be back next year once we figure out our holiday dates.

D

Spectacular cliff top views, only for those that can climb a hill.

Dack, Donna - 19/07/2025

Stunning views, touring site though on a steep hill with very tight pitches. Easy if you have motor mover but not for those without. Lots of cars driving in and out so becareful when walking. Staff friendly and offers a good range of entertainment. We enjoyed the murder mystery. Swimming pool good but were told to get out the pool after 45minutes. Staff very forceful and did not explain this was only to test the chlorine levels and that we could have gone back in. This left my 2 teenage sons very disappointed.Don't go to the restaurant hungry as the wait for food is lengthy. Also avoid the Chinese pork skewers, very bland. But the chicken skewers lovely. Also a big thumbs up for the spaghetti bolongess.To get to the sea the slipway is accessible but full of people with jet skis. Could be difficult to get in and out the water. Huge hike to the beach cove. Toilets and shower blocks clean but very limited for the boys only 2 toilet cubicles 4 in the ladies.

H

Fabulous views

Hunter, Audrey - 18/07/2025

Lovely site, although the hills can be a I bit of a challenge. Food in restaurant is very good although very slow. Toilets in the purple zone were often dirty, if everyone cleaned up at the back of themselves it would be so much better. Overall a lovely site and I will return one day

Great site with all amenities. Good premier shop open 7 days. Access to the beach is down a steep road. Static homes are very nice. Touring pitches are large and have Water. Electric. And TV point (screw fitting. But you can borrow a cable from the office). There are plenty of places for tents of all sizes.There is a dog walking spot in the trees. The staff are friendly and helpful. My only observation was the lack of a bucket and mop help dry the floor in the multi purpose shower and toilet block. Overall we had 2 very good days and peaceful nights.
