Offering first-class fishing and watersports on the loch, fantastic birdwatching spots, excellent walking and cycling, this family-run park is an ideal base for families, nature lovers and water sports enthusiasts. The fishing is excellent, many fishermen return each year to catch the famous Loch Ken pike, roach, bream and perch.
The park has deluxe two- or three-bedroom waterside holiday homes available for hire, with private decking areas and fishing packages included. There are also new hardstanding touring and motor home pitches with electric hook-ups and fantastic views over Loch Ken, plus an extensive tent field with some electric hook-ups and spectacular views across the Galloway Hills.

At night, it is also one of the best spots in the UK for stargazing with the naked eye, as it's the first Dark Sky Park in the UK and one of only two in Europe!
