About Kirk Loch Caravan Park
Kirk Loch Caravan Park sits directly on the water in the small market town of Lochmaben, nine miles north-east of Dumfries, offering a genuinely lochside setting that's still rare among touring parks in this corner of Dumfries and Galloway. The council-run site has around thirty pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes, split between hardstanding and grass, with electric hook-up at most. Three toilet and shower blocks serve the site, and regular visitors note they're kept to a decent standard, though the facilities can feel a touch tired in places.
The loch itself is the main draw: guests can fish and launch non-powered boats at no extra charge, and the adjoining golf course adds another option without leaving town. Lochmaben has a handful of shops, pubs and a bakery for essentials, but it's a quiet spot rather than a tourist hub. The park suits anyone after an unfussy, waterside pitch rather than resort-style amenities, and its position just off the A709 makes it a practical stop for caravans touring between Dumfries and the Borders or exploring Nithsdale and Annandale.

What visitors say
What an absolute gift of a find!!! A delightfully small site, set in the heart of the village. Clean, tidy and in a beautiful setting. The facilities are immaculate, walks around the Loch and into the village make it a great stop-over, or a base to explore the area. We will definitely keep a record of this one and will return. Thank you 😊

Fantastic, council-run campsite, right by Kirk Loch. Facilities were clean and the manager was very helpful and friendly. There's a walking path from the campsite that runs alongside the Loch and onto a lovely circular walk. There's a lovely bakery and 2 fantastic pubs a stones through away
