Things To Do in Dumfries and Galloway
Queensberry Bay Holiday Park - Just Over the Border in South West Scotland.
The most stunning thing about Queensberry Bay Holiday Park is our location in south west Scotland.
Often bypassed by those seeking the beauty of the Highlands on the one hand, or the stunning views of the Lake District on the other, we are just half an hour from the busy border city of Carlisle but could be a million miles away!
We are just along the coast from the internationally renowned Caerlaverock Castle and nature reserve. In season, you can see a spectacular display of wild geese and swans on the Merse.
This proximity to so much wildlife means of course that we have to be more careful than many to ensure that the animals’ habitat and surroundings are preserved. It is for this reason that our rules on peace and quiet are enforced - and why our park is not suitable for those looking for anything other than the tranquillity that is Queensberry Bay.
But even with all this beauty and tranquillity, there are still plenty of things to do in this part of Scotland with activities for all the family:
