Welcome to the Walled Garden Caravan and Camping Park.
Our quiet, secluded park is set within the historic Kilkerran Estate, home of the Fergusson family. Surrounded by many specimen trees, the park is well sheltered and is a real suntrap during the summer months.
The park's tranquil atmosphere provides the ideal setting in which to unwind and relax. We will be only too pleased to help you plan activities and suggest outings.
Our aim is to provide the very best in personal service and Scottish hospitality and pride ourselves in the warm, friendly atmosphere at the park. We look forward to meeting you.
Welcome to a new season! Here at The Walled Garden. The millions of Kilkerran snowdrops have now given way to a host of daffodils and it won’t be long until we see the woods sporting a bluebell haze. Spring is just around the corner!
Regular guests and visitors who enjoyed the convenience of the Crosshill Arms just over 2 miles away will be pleased to hear that it has re-opened as The Willie Wastle Inn. Those of you who know some Burn’s lore will be aware that Willie was one of Rabbie’s best friends and had a wife that Rabbie states in verse that, “I wad na gie a button for her”! It seems to me that wives were the only females that oor Rabbie didn’t have a good word for. But everyone is welcome at The Willie Wastle Inn and if you dine in pairs there is a buy one get one free promotion making a 3 course meal less than £20 for two!

Highland Games
Our Highland Games week-end in 2011 was a great success raising £1400 for our charity El Shaddai! See the wonderful work we are supporting by going to www.childrescue.net . This year's games will be held on Saturday 4th August.
No more potholes!
It is with great pleasure that, after continued lobbying of our roads department, we can report that the unclassified road from the b741 to the gates of our caravan park has been resurfaced. But that's not all!
Spurred on by the lovely smooth ride to the gates Jim threw (financial) caution to the wind and has had our driveway to the walled garden arch resurfaced too!!
Come and see for yourselves and enjoy the smoothest drive probably in Ayrshire, possibly in Scotland and perhaps in the UK!
As the park is in the countryside we do not have mains drainage but rely on a septic tank system. Consequently,our Toilet Chemical Disposal discharges into this tank. For the tank to work efficiently and not to pollute the soakaway only biological fluids such as Fenwicks Top and Tail or Biomagic can be used. Any fluids used must not contain Formaldehyde or any other chemicals that would kill the septic tank 'good' bacteria.
If you have any doubt about the suitability of your fluid do not put it in your cassette until you have checked with the Proprietor. We have the proper fluid(Fenwicks Top and Tail ) available here in single doses for 40p or 2.5ltr bottles for £10 if you are wanting to go really Green.Your cassette should be well rinsed out before Top and Tail is used as a residue of Formaldehyde can leech in to the plastic inside your cassette and make it more difficult for Top and Tail to work efficiently. Fenwicks make a cleaner called Fendox that can rid the formaldehyde from your cassette for good. Do your bit for the environment and cut out the nasty chemical fluids that are now out of date!!
