  • Quiet family-run holiday park on the edge of Newton Stewart
  • Galloway Forest Park five minutes' drive; Wigtown 15 minutes
  • Dog-friendly site next to National Cycle Route 7
This is a fantastic location for a Dumfries and Galloway break – Creebridge Caravan Park is on the edge of Newton Stewart, about five minutes' walk from the town centre. That means it’s handily located for shops, restaurants and takeaways (plus a cinema for an evening at the movies) , but it's also in a peaceful spot with lots of mature trees and other greenery on site. The focus here is on quiet nature rather than lively holidays – families are very welcome, and there's a play area for the kids, but this isn't a place that has noisy entertainments and extensive facilities. Guests are encouraged to slow down a little at this family-run park, but there's certainly plenty to do in the local area. Pack your bikes if you can, because the park is right next to National Cycle Route 7 and within easy reach of the 7Stanes mountain bike trails at Kirrochtree and Glentrool. Golfers, walkers and birdwatchers are well catered for nearby too, and it's only a five-minute drive to the Galloway Forest Park, designated an International Dark Skies Reserve for its excellent stargazing. Creebridge is a family-run park that prides itself on a warm welcome for all guests – and that includes dogs, who can join your breaks here as long as they're kept on a lead and supervised while on site.

What customers say

This site offers a peaceful stay with friendly, helpful staff and clean facilities, including hot showers. Its location is praised for proximity to shops and walks. However, some guests found the park to be scruffy, neglected, and lacking hard standing pitches, feeling it's better suited for static caravans. Issues with drainage and accessibility for disabled guests were also noted. Management acknowledges these points and is investing in improvements.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked Great guy at reception very helpful, facilities were spot on and clean, location was very convenient for the town

Disliked As a tent pitch you are put in the middle of the childrens play area with kids noise untill late and kicking balls against the tent and your vehicle untill gone half 10pm.
Great place for families and motorhomes, lodges looked great too, but as a solo traveller in a tent it's just not suitable, was that disturbed by the noise and disruptions I packed up after night 1 at 7am and didn't even return the second night what I had paid for.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your stay wasn’t as peaceful as you had hoped.
As a family-focused holiday park, our children’s play area is naturally popular during busy periods, particularly in the evenings, but we fully appreciate that this environment may not be ideal for every type of guest — especially solo campers seeking a quieter experience.
We do ask all guests and children to be respectful of other visitors and their pitches, and we’re disappointed to hear that this affected your stay to the extent that you chose to leave early.
Your comments are appreciated and will certainly be taken into consideration as we continue to review how we allocate pitches for different types of campers in the future.
We do sincerely thank you for staying with us and wish you all the best in your future travels.

Disliked Had to pay for shower. The whole site is rundown and unloved. Didn’t feel comfortable.

From the manager: We’re sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations.
As a small, family-run park, we work extremely hard throughout the year to maintain and improve the site ourselves, and a great deal of care, time, and effort goes into keeping the park peaceful, tidy, and welcoming for our guests and holiday homeowners.
We understand that our quieter, more rustic style of park may not suit everyone, particularly compared with larger commercial holiday parks, but many of our visitors specifically choose us for our relaxed atmosphere and tranquil surroundings.
Our shower facilities operate using a small charge system, which helps us manage running costs and usage fairly, especially during busier periods.
We are naturally disappointed to read that you felt uncomfortable during your stay, as this is certainly not the experience we aim to provide. Nevertheless, we appreciate all feedback and will take your comments on board as we continue working to improve the park.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked The owners were so so lovely and friendly

Location was amazing and ideally placed near amenities

Disliked There wasn't much room for tents felt a little bit squeezed in

It would be nice to have a space for tents and campers

Also having to get tokens for showers wasn't ideal

Please remove the chair and stools from the ladies they can not be used as they are dirty/ dusty and have paint on them.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked Close proximity to Newton Stewart. Staff on duty were very friendly and incredibly helpful.

Disliked Unfortunately the pitch was on grass, and given the amount of rain we had during our stay, the grassed area started turning to a soggy mess where we had walked, (especially at the Campervan door).
The site was littered with unused or damaged caravans, with the majority of the site being residential vans
