Dumfries and Galloway

Easy to reach just north of the England/Scotland border, campsites in Dumfries and Galloway include pretty Gretna Green, famous for eloping couples under the age of consent (then aged 21 in England) to wed in Scotland.

Visit the market town of Dumfries from your glamping lodge accommodation. It’s nicknamed “the Queen of the South” and has plenty of historic sights, shops, cafes and architecture. One of the most fun places to visit on your staycation in Dumfries and Galloway is the Museum and Camera Obscura in an 18th century windmill.

Further west, Galloway Forest Park is a beautiful area for walking, fishing and exploring. Find a quiet campsite or glamping lodge with hot tub and enjoy a romantic break. Alternatively, bring the family for a weekend break near Dumfries and visit Mabie Farm Park and Dino Park at Hetland.
