A small, friendly, family-run park, Mossband is in an ideal location to explore Dumfries and Galloway with its many delights. The location of the park is in a quiet and peaceful rural setting on the outskirts of the village of Kirkgunzeon, just eight miles from Dumfries and four miles from Dalbeattie. Our site offers panoramic views of the hills as they roll south to the Solway Coast and eastwards towards Criffel, with coastal and woodland walks a short driving distance away. We offer grass and hardstanding pitches with or without electric hook-up. Hot showers are included in the price and there's a small laundry with tumble dryer. We also have a secure lock-up for bikes and a wash-down area. We are on a local bus route so saves on fuel if you want to travel around the area. Alan and Christine Knott are here to welcome you.
