Situated on the outskirts of the quaint market town of the "Muckle Toun" of Langholm, this family friendly campsite is part of Langholm Rugby Club's grounds and is surrounded by woodland as well as the lovely Ewes Water.
There are a total of 25 grass pitches with electric hook up (10 of which are hard standing with EcoGrids), all of which welcome tents, caravans, motorhomes and campervans. There's plenty of space for all, and the camping field is bordered by the picturesque Ewes Water river.
A peaceful site immersed in nature, this is a great destination or stop off point for anyone looking to explore Scotland or England, situated at the base of the community owned Tarras Valley Nature Reserve and just seven miles from the border and less than a half hour's drive from Northumberland's stunning National Park.
BBQs are allowed as are campfires within the caravan site.
Dogs are very welcome but must be kept on leads within the site itself. There is ample space within the grounds of the rugby club to exercise dogs.
Facilities and amenities
The facilities include two male and four female toilets, four free hot showers, a disabled toilet, a laundry room with a washing machine and ironing board and a dishwashing point.
Whitshiels Cafe is a stone's throw from the park offering dine in/takeaway options.
The small town of Langholm is less than a ten minute walk away with the Crown, Douglas and Eskdale Hotels offering excellent food and drink or why not stop off for a pint on your way at the Buck Hotel.
Pop in to the family-run Latimers of Langholm where in store you'll not only find a wide range of furniture, upholstery, and carpets, you'll find everything you could possibly require from nuts and bolts to pots and pans, and from garden furniture to bulbs and batteries to mention a few. There are also a couple of basic shops for food supplies, including a Londis and a Co-op.
Ewes Water Caravan and Camping Park was set up by Langholm Rugby Club in 1992, on their old training ground, with the vision it would help sustain the club's long-term future.
The site is run by volunteers from the rugby club who take great personal care of the site and immense pride in offering visitors an enjoyable stay.
Why not ask for a tour of the clubrooms, steeped in history, the club dates back to 1871, recently celebrating their 150th anniversary, where they are the 8th oldest rugby club in Scotland and the oldest club in the Scottish Borders - heartland of Scottish rugby, boasting full Scotland internationals and British Lions.
