Campsites with fishing in Galloway Forest Park

·

In Galloway Forest Park, anglers and wild campers alike have over a dozen camping options where fishing is front and centre. Pitch your tent or settle into a glamping pod beside lochs and forest streams—here, water is never far away. You’ll find campsites like Runach Arainn Glamping (2 reviews) and Garrison Shepherd's Huts (1 review) offering easy access to fishing spots, woodland walks, and dark skies for stargazing. Most sites include a shower, proper loos, and space for campfires—essentials after a day casting lines or watching red squirrels dart through the trees. Nights average around £128, with pitches starting at just £51 if you’re keen to keep it simple. Expect clear air, good water, and a crowd that knows their trout from their tench.

An information pack of places to visit and eat is provided. The caravan is on the family run Monreith Sands Holiday Park with a great location on the beautiful Galloway coast. Sandy beaches are only a few 100m away. The generally calm waters of Luce Bay are great for swimming or kayaking. Nearby is a golf course plus historic sites and formal gardens. Although the Galloway Forest is know for being a Dark Sky Park and great for stargazing, the whole Machars peninsular is very dark. The Galloway Astronomy Centre (01988 500594) gives stargazing tours.
