The adventure began on the road with more than 5 hours drive to have a stopover at Dumfries before ending with a ferry crossing to the Isle of Cumbrae. The island was small but quaint. We love the beach and had fun rock pooling. The kids enjoyed looking for the famous rocks including the crocodile, the lion and the Indian. The accommodation was lovely and all had ensuites. The food was wholesome and filling and the center even had dairy and egg free pudding – bonus! The most memorable activity was bird box building and the kids had a go hammering nails into wood for the very first time. Shame about the stormy weather as it rained virtually everyday and we didn’t join in that many of the outdoor activities due to this.
