There are a total of 24 pitches, all with electric hook up (ten of which are hardstanding with EcoGrids), welcoming tents, caravans, motorhomes and campervans. There's plenty of space for all, and the camping field is bordered by the picturesque Ewes Water River.

Ewes Water Caravan Park is located within Langholm Rugby Club grounds. We were lucky enough to arrive on a day when Langholm were playing at home. We watched the match and had a beer from the clubhouse bar, which was very reasonably priced. Although it stayed open until around 11pm, there was absolutely no noise to disturb us. It has 3 drinking water stations, with rubbish bins, and 1 waste area to put your grey water and chemical toilet waste. You don't have too far to walk into Langholm itself, which is a very picturesque little town. We walked in to have lunch at one of the cafes. The food was good, and again, very reasonably priced (Pelosi's Corner Cafe). There's around 25 pitches for caravans, camper vans, motorhomes and tents. Loved our stay and we will return soon.
Excellent value for money
