Adults-only touring pitches on a Dumfries & Galloway livestock farm
Castle Douglas less than 10 mins' drive; close to 7Stanes bike trails
Spacious wildlife haven with easy access from the A75

It's a rural outlook indeed at Mollance Farm Campsite, where you’ll wake up to lake views and and often spot wildlife (such as red kites, moorhens, hares and deer) around the place as well as the farm animals that call this livestock farm home permanently. Despite this deeply rural outlook, it’s remarkably easy to get to this corner of the Dumfries & Galloway countryside, as Mollance Farm is just off the A75 for easy journeys in, out and all about. That also means it’s convenient to get to places like Castle Douglas (less than 10 minutes’ drive away) for fuel, restaurants and foodie supplies. There’s a supermarket here, but this foodie town is primarily known for its 50 or so independent businesses, so it’s worth taking the time to explore those for a good taste of the area. Elsewhere nearby you can take it easy with beach days and strolls around historic sites or up the adrenaline levels with a whole lot of adventure activities including the 7Stanes mountain bike trails at Dalbeattie (15 minutes’ drive). Whichever approach you opt for, you’ll be coming back to an adults-only site where the touring pitches are sizeable enough to accommodate any size of caravan or motorhome, plus a car and an awning. Toilet and shower facilities are provided, and maintained to a high standard of appearance and cleanliness. Dogs are welcome but will need to be kept on a lead so they don’t upset the livestock.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked: beautiful location, no noise except the birds and the cows munching the grass..bliss. Toilets were warm and clean, well stocked with the essentials if you'd run out. Will certainly return recommend and return to this site. We paid by using their small deposit box outside the toilet block, clever idea.

Disliked: No points to dislike about the site at all, but the usual moan...people in big fancy camper vans using the facilities leaving other visitors who have no toilets or showers waiting!!?

Liked: Lovely site … well presented and great clean facilities… lovely hosts

Disliked: Remote unless you are happy to travel in your car or camper for a day out … but on the plus side this made it super peaceful and quiet x

From the manager: Thank you
There is a walk which is 2 1/2 miles on a back road to Castle Douglas
There are plenty cycle runs that leave from the Farm using all the back roads
If you’d like to go further, yes you do need to use your car
I do hope this explains and once again, thank you for your review

We loved our overnight here and would recommend it.

From the manager: Hi Brian
Sorry about the hot water Brian.
Our biomass had broken down that weekend and we hadn’t realised hence hot water water is normally boiling hot all the time. I’m so sorry about that. It’s sorted and up and running again. Look forward to your return.
Kind regards, Sheena

Local attractions

Your first visit around here should be to the atmospheric ruin a short walk away in the farm grounds – it’s been there since the late 19th century. Once you’ve seen that, set off to see some more of the area’s history at Cairn Holy (half an hour’s drive), a set of neolithic chambers that are more than 4000 years old, and Threave Castle (10 minutes), built in 1369. More in the mood for activity? Take your mountain bikes to the downhill trails of 7Stanes: Dalbeattie (15 minutes), or head over to Galloway Activity Centre (20 minutes) for things like watersports, high ropes courses, laser tag and a go on the wobbly waterpark. For more chilled-out days, take a walk along the plant-filled paths of Broughton House & Garden (20 minutes), look out for big birds at the Red Kite Centre, Laurieston (15 minutes) or hit the beach – Rockcliffe, Sandyhills and Dalavan beaches are all around 20 minutes away, and all good options for a day out (and they’re dog friendly too).
