About Islecroft Caravan and Camping Site
Tucked in the heart of Dalbeattie, this adults-only site (26+) offers a peaceful base just a five-minute stroll from local shops, pubs and takeaways. The 26-50 pitch layout sits across from the town park, handy if you're travelling with friends or family who have children. Recent renovations have smartened things up considerably – the once-dated toilet block now boasts fresh modern facilities, and pitches come with car parking alongside.
Forest trails, mountain biking routes and fishing spots lie on the doorstep, making this a natural fit for walkers and cyclists exploring Dumfries and Galloway. Dogs are welcome, and you'll find a launderette, chemical disposal and recycling on site. While the location won't suit everyone seeking total countryside seclusion, the combination of town convenience and quiet, well-kept grounds strikes a useful balance for active explorers.

We had a wonderful time at Islecroft Campsite! Derrick and Val were fantastic hosts☺️ The site was very peaceful and quiet with all the facilities you needed - absolutely spotless and a stones throw from the town centre of Dalbeattie with lovely shops, pubs and takeaways!! Couldn’t recommend enough!!❤️

I booked at the last minute on a bank holiday weekend and was lucky to get a pitch for my tent after speaking to Derek. The campsite is in the town so well placed for all the amenities which is a big bonus. The campsite facilities are excellent and the grassed area one of the best I've come across. Derek & Val were very helpful and friendly.
