Great site
Mollance Farm
We spent 3 nights at Mollance Farm over last weekend. Sheena contacted me via email to confirm there was a pitch as I hadn't tried to book until late. We arrived on Friday afternoon, found the site easily, beautiful site overlooking fields and a large pond, lots of birds around, chattering and singing. There were two full bathrooms with shower loo and washbasin, spotlessly clean and warm. The weather was perfect, warm and sunny. Plenty of walks around the area. Close to Castle Douglas and not far from the coast. Saturday morning a message from Sheena asking if we would like fish and chips at tea time. What a treat! Of course we said yes and we're given a time to pick up. They were ready on time and delicious. So what is not to like? Would definitely return. Thank you so much for a great weekend.

Peaceful site with lovely shower/toilets
Mollance Farm
Showers/toilets are self-contained, en-suite style, beautiful and clean. As the site is small, you will be close to them. Fairly level pitches, though you might use blocks if you have them. Good location for local walks and cycling. We cycled on back roads to Castle Douglas and to Threave. Close to the A75 but far enough away to not notice at night. We appreciated Linda's review about the entrance! (18/07/23).

Lovely little CL
Mollance Farm
Stopped for 3 nights en route to Isle of Arran, Mull of Kintyre and the Trossachs. Very nicely kept site. Level pitches. Lovely toilets/showers. Pleasant views over a little pond to farmland beyond. Very quiet indeed. Just the sound of birdsong. Nice dog walks from site. Good base for touring Dumfries and Galloway. Castle Douglas has all you need by way of shops with good butchers bakers etc. We enjoyed a drive along the Raiders Road through Galloway Forest with a picnic at Otters Pool. Also had a nice day trip to Port Patrick. Would return. Word of warning the CAMC sign at the (very imposing) entrance from the layby is so faded you can hardly see it. Just trust your instincts that you are in the right place and ignore the apparent no entry sign and drive over cattle grid and up the drive and you will find it!
Good CL
Mollance Farm
We stayed here in early April. The site was easy to find and access good, though there is a fair bit of private single track driveway to negotiate, but it was not a problem. The little loch is home to swans and ducks who kept us entertained. There is a faint noise from the main road, but little traffic overnight.
We were on the first site, pitches are nice and flat, with easy access to the 2 individual shower rooms, water was in the same place and waste water and toilet emptying close by on the other side of the farm road. This road is quite busy, but the big hedge shielded the pitches.
Good shopping and plenty to see in Castle Douglas, and lots of other places around to visit. We have been in the area before, so this time only went down to the coast a couple of times.
The site fee at the time of our visit was £25, which is a bit more than we are used to paying, but if you prefer, or need, showers etc on site, then it is good value.
We mainly use our own on board facilities and preferably look for a CL with serviced hard standings, but could not find anything suitable in the area. Since facilities were available I did use them and they were very good.
