It was a leisurely start to the day as we didn't have too far to go and all day to get to the Solway Coast. The hustle & bustle of the last few days were behind us.
It was an uneventful drive and we arrived at Auchenlarie Holiday Park which was to be our base for the next three nights.
It was mid afternoon when we booked in and bought some provisions.
I thought I'd booked a yurt but as quite often happens, I thought wrong and we ended up with a pod. This was a small but well thought out design and perfectly adequate for our needs.

Perhaps the only things missing were a table to eat from and some instructions on how to use the microwave, which had more buttons than the space shuttle, but we managed anyway.
Just across the road was a stand of pine trees which was home to a rookery and the noise was constant and horrendous. Thankfully the pod was well insulated and the rooks were silenced when we shut the door.
We did have some quieter neighbours who were quite entertaining at times.

We settled in and put our feet up with a cuppa while we decided what to do about our evening meal.
Neither of us fancied driving out to find a pub so we decided to hit the site takeaway. This turned out to be a good move as the food, although basic, was good quality, well cooked and huge portions. It was reasonably priced as well.
We sat & watched some TV then decided that an early night was in order so we had to work out how to find the bed. It was cunningly hidden in the wall behind the sofa and only needed pulling out. Good night!
