Parking public à l'entrée de Girvan, bien indiqué depuis la A77, avec superbe vue sur la baie. Très calme la nuit même si la route ne passe pas loin. Sur place grosse poubelle et WC (fermés en hiver). Promenade piétonne (éclairée le soir par petites lampes solaires!) permettant de se rendre à la ville en longeant la mer.

Public parking at the entrance to Girvan, well signposted from the A77, with superb views of the bay. Very quiet at night even if the road does not go far. On site big trash and WC (closed in winter). pedestrian walk (lit at night by small solar lamps!) To go to the city along the sea.

Öffentlicher Parkplatz am Ortseingang von Girvan. Gut ausgeschildert von der A77 aus. Ein wunderschöner Platz mit herrlicher Aussicht, trotz der Straße in der Nähe sehr leise. Es gibt ein Toilettenhäuschen (im Winter geschlossen) sowie einen Imbisstand. Die Gegend rundherum ist einfach atemberaubend und wunderschön da fast überall ein Sandstrand vorhanden ist. Es gibt eine Fußgangerweg nach Girvan, der nachts mit Solarlampen beleuchtet ist.

    It's ok. Busy in morning with coach trip stopping. Road noise all night from ferry traffic coming up from Stranraer, but not really loud as you are off the main road, but not that far. Decent stopover/break from driving, but definitely not a destination stop. Snack cabin open on a Sunday, toilets are closed, looks like being refurbished. Graziano's chippy near harbour is highly recommended.

    Parfait pour une nuit, voir plus, face à mer tant l'endroit est sympa. Avec WC ouverts. Belle petite ville et port à proximité

  • 5/5

    Great site. Duplicate entry to one identified next to it.

  • 5/5

    Great little spot to overnight and get breakfast from David snack bar. lovely views of sea and good walks for dogs. It was a nice and quiet night apart from gusts of wind.

  • 5/5

    Great little park up. Arrived around 9pm, plenty of other motor homes and campers already set for the night. The best thing is the views in the morning and David’s Snack Bar which serves hot breakfast rolls and coffee!

  • 5/5

    Direkte Sicht auf den Strand und Sonnenuntergang. Ohne Probleme einen Stellplatz am Abend bekommen. Morgens kommen viele PKW um am Imbiss ihr Brötchen zu kaufen.

  • 4/5

    Stayed here overnight with no issue, was very busy with a lot of MH and even caravans...didn't use toilets as arrived late and didn't open until 8.30am so we left early and went to some at the other end of Girvan

  • 5/5

    good Spot, a Lot of space, for free with a toilet. perfect!

  • 4/5

    This spot was just what we needed. It's close to the ferry terminal (Cairnryan), off the road, had toilets, and a walking path into town, where there's a lovely beach. In the morning we had an excellent and inexpensive coffee and bacon butty from David's Snack Bar, which is located in the parking lot.

  • 5/5

    Great place to stop quiet with great views. Bin and toilets. Easy walk by the sea into town.

  • 5/5

    Great spot to pull in for the night. Right beside beach and toilet facilities available. Chemical toilet also available here.

  • 4/5

    spent last night here with 9 other campervans. Nice and quiet great scenery and walk into town. toilets closed over night. lovely breakfast at burger stand

  • 5/5

    Toller Platz wir haben hier die letzte Nacht in Schottland verbracht und sind am nächsten Tag auf die Fähre nach Belfast gegangen. Landschaftlich fantastisch und eine ruhige Nacht.

  • 4/5

    Prima Platz direkt an der Küste. Tagsüber viel los, nachts aber ruhig. Scheint ein Dauer Camper hier zu stehen, der laut Hinweisschilden seine Ruhe will... haben Abstand gehalten.

  • 4/5

    Bel emplacement gratuit face à la mer disposant de toilettes anciennes mais très propre. Effectivement cet endroit est fréquenté par les autochtones. Possibilité d'aller au village par un sentier littoral bien entretenu (environ 1,5Kms). Nous y avons seulement fait une halte. il y a aussi possibilité d'acheter de la nourriture sur place (cabanon)

  • 4/5

    Schöner Übernachtungsplatz mit Blick auf die Felsinsel Ailsa Craig. Morgens ist der Parkplatz durch den Imbiss stark frequentiert, in der Nacht waren gut 10 Mobile da. Eine angenehme Nacht. Für Leute mit empfindlichen Ohren: Die LKW auf der A77 fahren die ganze Nacht.

  • 4/5

    great little park up. right on the seafront and close enough to town to walk for supplies. toilets and a snack bar on site.

  • 4/5

    Endroit sympatique, avec une jolie vue et une belle balade vers le bourg. Pas mal fréquenté par les camping cars locaux, ambiance sympa, et si vous parlez anglais une ocassion d'échanger.

  • 5/5

    Gratis en druk bezochte camperplek. Er staan veel campers, waarvan sommige denk ik vast, ook aan de hoop honden en hokjes te zien. Desondanks is het uitzicht schitterend vooral met zonsondergang. Girvan is goed te voet bereikbaar langs zee en er is een snackbar en toiletten.

  • 5/5

    Fantastic safe and free spot with great food from David’s snacks. Stunning views

  • 5/5

    Ein schöner kostenloser Übernachtungsplatz. Es gibt Toiletten, sonst nichts. Direkt am Platz steht ein Kiosk der Kaffee und warme Snacks anbietet. Bitte haltet diesen Platz sauber und parkt nicht quer, sonst wird es hier bald ein No Overnight Schild geben. Der Ausblick und die Lage Top!

  • 5/5

    Quiet, flat parkup right next to the beach. Perfect for a walk along the foreshore. Bin and toilet but no other services.

  • 4/5

    Parked here overnight. No problems apart from high winds! Lovely view. Toilets and cafe nearby. Good place to stop in good weather. Much better than moho stop in town which costs £10 a night and facilities are non existent

  • 3/5

    buona sosta notturna gratuita. La mattina qualche rumore ma sopportabile. posto molto ventoso. magari c'è ne fossero altri così. ora speriamo di trovare un CS, non sarà facile.

  • 3/5

    Als Zwischenstop perfekt, Aussicht selbst in der zweiten Reihe sehr schön. Allerdings ist die Straße nachts immer etwas befahren und ab dem Morgen ist am Snack Laden einiges los. Viel Platz und sehr gute Möglichkeiten mit Heck überhängend nur einen Parkplatz zu belegen was die Einheimischen mit Autos nur bedingt hinbekommen. Toiletten schließen abends im Sommer um 18.15 öffnen 8.30.

  • 4/5

    enjoy while you can. lovely spot BUT way to popular last night there where 17 mohos e complete with builders truck. Dave's cafe is really good but where do his customers park.

  • 5/5

    Brilliant night here and David’s snack bar was amazing! We was going to cook breakfast but there was no point, cheap prices, great food! Beautiful views!!!

  • 4/5

    Great place to stopover and the takeaway cafe does excellent food highly recommended

  • 4/5

    easy to place to park with plenty of bays right on the waterside , awesome to watch the sun go down . Public toilet open till 6.30 , a little bit road traffic noise but nothing to keep you awake, only gripe is some worker from the Ayrshire Council thought it would be a good idea to leave the engine running while he went about his business at 7.30 am but definitely worth a stay

  • 4/5

    Good spot, couldn't hear the road unless actively listening for it. Very nice views, clean and with toilets (8:30-18:30 April - September, otherwise 9:00-17:00)

  • 5/5

    We parked here during the day and walked into Girvan. Convenient and easy. David’s snack place is a MUST! Very reasonably priced and excellent produce.

  • 4/5

    We've stayed here a few times now when passing... not a bad location Toilets. Nice views and fossil beach too for those who love fossils last time we stopped I didn't get a bad night's sleep. but this time it was terrible.. one minute there was a bin lorry emptying bins. the coastguard shining torches for an hour around the car park. lots of traffic noise. so it's hit and miss I think

  • 5/5

    We have stopped here a few times now, very handy for the Cairnryan ferry or more generally, with a lovely view. it can be very windy, eg last night! That really does not bother me. no sign of rubbish/rats as suggested by another user, not my experience, I don't need to visit the toilets a bit rough/ready but IT IS FREE. The bacon rolls from the snack bar = very tasty and reasonable ££.

  • 1/5

    Depressed and dirty looking pulled in Sunday at 5.30 pm traffic noise from road and saw rat run from beach towards camper vans - hills in background looked nice - walk along seafront into town looked run down - and rubbish lying around - so pulled off

  • 5/5

    The view out to sea and Ailsa Craig is amazing. Great place to watch the sunset. Toilets open 8:30am to 6:15pm in the summer months. Really quiet overnight. David's Snack Cabin open early for breakfast too.

  • 5/5

    You can’t beat falling asleep to the sound of the sea. Very easy found carpark right on the beach. Very well maintained very clean and tidy. A few spaces left for a Tuesday evening. We arrived approx 11pm. As a single parent with 3 with me this is a place I’ll be back to as it feels very safe and well lit.

  • 5/5

    Right on the beach and a short walk in to town. Quietens down after 10pm, locals are friendly.

  • 5/5

    Parked here as Girvan harbour bays were busy. Good alternative/free stopover with toilets and big bins. Friday night in a heatwave so was very popular with at least 25 other users but still had a quiet night. Easy walk or cycle into town. Snack bar open early for breakfast.

  • 5/5

    Sunday night 2other campes google say a 4 min walk to the harbour. I would've said about 15am a slow walker.didnt use the public toilets.road right beside but it did not bother me it was windy the rain also played the bongo's all night but that's all the fun lol. people come and go with there dogs. and there is a snack bar at the entrance to the carpark but I did not use this.

  • 4/5

    Belle vue sur la mer et sur Ailsa Craig. Toilettes (fermées la nuit). Beaucoup de monde le matin (promeneurs, bus de touristes...) Peu de bruit la nuit.

  • 5/5

    Parking très sympa en bord de mer, proche du centre ville par une promenade le long de la plage. Une cinquantaine de places (6m), il y a un petit snack. Pas très bruyant bien que proche de la route. WC sur le parking fermés la nuit.

  • 4/5

    This is a good location but tending to get more popular now. Easy walk to town and a decent hot food counter at the car park. Cracking view and a decent location for road cycling.

  • 5/5

    Top spot. Toilettes propres ferment à 20h et rouvrent le matin. Belle balade sur front de mer.
