| "Absolutely brilliant location and park layout. The area is outstanding and we had excellent weather! The brochure didn't give the impression of the areas attributes - forest locks rivers gardens castles day trips to Belfast etc." |

| "We all thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. When we arrived we were overcome by how many caravans were on site and all had decking! This was a bonus as we could appreciate relaxing with home comforts at hand without having to take everything down to the beach. The site was immaculate and very well maintained. The nicest thing was the rabbits which were totally at ease and free to roam all around! The baby ones were adorable! I would recommend Auchenlarie Caravan Park to everyone. It is fantastic and the location and scenery is fantastic. " |
