Convenient overnight stopWe used this CL
We used this CL as a convenient stop heading north to the Highlands, it being quite close to the A74M near Lockerbie. Easy to find just on the edge of Lochmaben and good access for our twin axle. There are two hardstandings with electric, just inside the gate, and a further two without EHU. Otherwise, there are EHUs along the edge of the site on grass. The site is rather sloping on most of the grassed area, making it difficult to pitch longer outfits (we were able to get a hard standing). The grass was thick and lush on our visit and it was mowed shortly after our arrival. Unfortunately, the grass cuttings were not collected, making a horrendous mess whenever trekking to the water, EHU or chemical waste points. The chemical disposal point was a septic tank with a hatch to empty into it, though on our visit it was virtually full and rather unpleasant. Also the adjacent A709 can get quite busy, and noisy, at times though no problem at night. Didn’t have time to visit the surrounding area but the Kirk Loch in Lochmaben looked attractive and we had a decent meal in the Crown Hotel in the village.
Lovely site
Very spaceous, pitch wherever you like. Nice little pond area with shrubs & bench. Owners very friendly, offering advice an local walks etc. Enjoyed walks around both lochs with our 2 dogs, also small circular walk from site. Good shops and pleasant walk beside river in Dumfries, around 15 miles away. We didn't find the road noise a problem.

Good for Motorways
Quite a way from Lockerbie, near village easy walk to loch and pub an a few shops. Site: grass short, and plenty of hardstanding. Easy to find helpful lady . road noise did not disturb us but we were their on a Sunday night.
Lovely little site!
We stayed just one night last week on our way to Scotland. Very nice little site, hook-up and water. Walked down to the village around the golf course and had a nice meal in the Crown Hotel. The owners were very helpful and accommodating. We would definately stay again and would recommend for short stays.
friendly stay
We stayed here in April 2018 for 3 nights.The site was easy to find and pitch up. Due to the very wet weather we have been having we were unable to park on the grass which would have given us all more room. The owner was very friendly and gave us a welcome pack. Yes there is some road noise but it did not cause us any problems. And was very plesent to walk the dog down the lane which was very quiet. would stay again.
