 Lovely site. Well kept and clean. The 2 wardens did a great job doing this.

Thought it was a bit over priced once we got there as its not a secure site and the public can walk through to get onto the walks.

Over looking Kirk Loch which was nice and the golf course which you could walk around.

Beautiful sunsets.

In Lochmaben itself was a fish and chip shop which sold a great selection of food, from pizza's, kebabs, pies, burgers as well as the fish and chips.

There was a bakery which did sandwiches, pies and cakes ( which were lovely ) a chinese takeaway ( also very good), and a tesco express. Didn't try any of the pubs. All within a 5 min walk from the site.

 Campsite was great, facilities were nicely kept and showers were clean with plenty hot water,

Only thing lacking was WiFi, we were only there for 2 nights so our data lasted.

Although this is one of the more expensive sites we’ve stayed at, that could have been justified with free Wi-Fi.

 Directions to the site as advised was spot on, very easy to find, the pitches were good, view of the beautiful lake was a bonus

Staff were lovely and kept the toilets and laundry room nice and clean, very quiet, just what we needed.

Tesco express very close and a hotel with food also right beside it.

Would recommend and will visit again sometime.

 Beautiful campsite with gorgeous surroundings next to the Loch.

Very well kept and helpful staff.

Very near to a lovely pub with a huge beer garden.

Would definitely recommend.

We were just passing through on our way to The Isle of Arran but could have spent much longer than one night.

 The site manager communicated really well and was very friendly.

The site facilities are spotless.

Would be nice if the village had somewhere to sit down to eat as neither pub do food.

Takeaway Chinese or fish and chips!

Nice walks round lakes and dumfries a short car ride

 Been to loch Kirk caravan site 5 times. Lovely outlook over loch kirk from our caravan. Welcomed by the people of the village and the 2 public Houses the Kings Arms and the Crown.

There is a great cafe/bakery for a nice breakfast if do not feel like cooking also and fantastic fish and chip shop they also make pizza's and kebabs.

If golf is your thing then you have a beautiful 18hole course that wraps around the loch to play and fishing is your thing free fishing on loch kirk if you are staying on the caravan site.

Peter who I book with goes out of his way to accommodate everything to make your stay a good one but unfortunately he cannot guarantee the weather.

The site has wc shower block which are cleaned daily also a laundry for a small fee. 16amp electric and water on the pitch you are allocated.

In my eyes a lovely hidden gem and thoroughly recommend you give it a try

You won't be disappointed

Reviewer: Lee 60 24 reviews from this member

 This is nice little site, convenient for the M74/M6 in a pretty location. We stopped over here for a single night on the way back South from The Highlands.

This site is run by the local Dumfries and Galloway Council and sits alongside a lovely loch in a pretty part of Lochmaben, with a pub sitting nearby.

The site looks like it was once a car park, pitches are mostly tarmac, not entirely flat, but they have water and a TV connection if you want it. The facilities are clean and modern, entry is via a keycode as this site is open for the public (no barrier by the entrance) to walk through.

There is no motorhome grey waste point, so we did have to empty with a bucket at the toilet block. Most of the pitches look like seasonal caravans that have the choice locations and make a visitor feel a bit of an outsider.

There was no check-in as the site is not always manned, so we had to call to get details by a phone call before arrival. The £32. 50 per night seemed a little steep and had to be paid at the time of booking ten weeks prior to our visit.

We were quite tired on arrival after a long journey, so didn't visit the town or pub, but hopefully will if we return.

 Had an excellent time a Kirk loch campsite. Weather was amazing and the facilities were clean and perfect.

What made our stay even better was the residential people on site. John, jimmy, Trisha and Margaret song with everyone else were ever so friendly and polite to us that it made us book an extra night on the Sunday.

The local people staying in the village were also very welcoming and friendly especially a young keen fisherman.

My partner and This lovely young boy spoke away for hours about fishing along with the people on the site.

We will definitely be booking again for a weekend or maybe longer.

 It was next to the loch so there was an opportunity for open water swimming which I did.

The showers were lovely and hot and quite powerful.

The site was basically a car park so not much room and quite pricey for what it was but it was next to a pub and in the centre of the town which was good.
