    Great little stop over, stayed for one night ready for early ferry the next morning. There is road noise granted but for the view alone it's worth it and you just get used to it. It didn't bother us, 3 other vans parked up also. 3 supermarkets within easy reach by bicycle, and chippies. Spot on

    Lovely views across the bay and own to the ferries at Cairnryan. We stayed for one night when sailing at 8am. arrived late but lots of space and nice and level.

  • 4/5

    Very good stop. Thanks for sharing. Easy to access and right by sea with view of ferries.

  • 3/5

    epic views across the bay and if you get a clear evening the sunset is unbelievable! gets 3 stars due to the road noise even up to 11pm but quiet after that and great for the ferry to Ireland!

  • 5/5

    Lovely views. Good nights sleep. Lovely walk in either direction along the lough. Very handy for the ferry. Will use again.

    Good location, fantastic views. access to pull up onto the grass at the far end for more privacy

  • 5/5

    Perfect, got off the ferry in Cairnryan at 10pm, drove a couple of miles down the coast, awesome park up, one other van, space for 10. Some road noise but a great nights sleep. Cracking little cafe for breakfast, CASH ONLY, so I learned a lesson for the future. Will definitely use again

    I arrived during the night. It was a stop off for the ferry to Belfast the next day. Very noisy but that didn't bother me. I would say this place in the summer would be a gold mine. There is a snack bar but it wasn't opened when I arrived.

    A great stop over for the ferry. Room to let our dog run off extra energy on the beach. Wonderful views over loch. Seats and a bench line the park up overlooking the beach. Some road noise but quiet overnight. Two other motorhomes and a few HGVs but plenty of room for all. Cafe opens at 8am.

  • 2/5

    Jam packed with motorhome and HGVs. We got last spot. some HGVs then double parked so you were stuffed for getting out. we had no ferry to catch so no worries for us. The traffic does not stop. Goes on all night as Ferries are now departing all hours. What was a good spot is now not so good. The other car park up road was also packed with HGVs.

    Great overnight stop fairly quiet ideal for ferries.

  • 4/5

    Think this is the best stop for the ferry

  • 4/5

    Had a good night sleep cafe open in the morning worth a stop over

  • 4/5

    Stunning views, a bin to dispose of rubbish. Level enough not to need levelling chocks. Quite a bit of traffic passing, so may be an issue if you’re a light sleeper. Didn’t try the snack hut so unable to rate it

  • 4/5

    Good 4G great views near a road but not much traffic

  • 5/5

    Great view. sunset awesome. best of all it is free. just watching the ferries to Ireland coming and going. word of warning though. Lots if box jellyfish in the water. Their sting is nasty

    A 10 min drive from the Cairnryan ferry, lovely view in the morning. Very little road noise during the night...would recommend parking at the Cairnryan end if you plan a lie-in as vehicles drive in and out to The Bunker beach cafe which does an excellent breakfast. Would definitely recommend.

  • 4/5

    Large parking area set back from the road, lovely views of the bay and quiet night's sleep. There is a snack bar at the end of the layby but it was closed when we were there. Definitely stay there again.

  • 4/5

    Comodo per l'imbarco, pianeggiante, fondo asfaltato. Sulla strada, quindi piuttosto rumoroso.

  • 4/5

    Belle aire de stationnement avec vue sur la mer. Il y a un petit snack bar au bout du parking. Seul bémol beaucoup de passages sur la route à proximité. L'embarquement pour le ferry se trouve à 10 minutes.

  • 3/5

    Superbe vue sur la mer et petit bonus avec l'arrivée des oies sauvages qui font leur halte et qui doivent avoir l'appli "Park 4 night" ;) Une nuit avant le départ pour le ferry qui se trouve à 10 mn. Table pour manger. Bord de route, pas mal de passage la nuit.

  • 3/5

    Gut für eine Nacht vor/nach der Fähre. Bis dort ca. 10 Minuten. Laut da an der Straße. Recht voll. Snackbar mit Frühstückangebot.

  • 4/5

    Super handy one night spot very near the ferry. It has a small path which runs along the shore. Lots of other people staying there.

  • 3/5

    Parcheggio con bella vista, un po' rumoroso per via della strada adiacente.

  • 3/5

    Bruyant avec la route juste à côté, mais pratique quand-même quand on débarque du ferry à Cairnryan à 22h.

  • 3/5

    Belle vue sur la baie. Route passante donc un peu de bruit. Il y a même un petit snack bar. Bien pour une nuit.
