Driving SCOTLAND’S South West 300 in a Camper Van Part 1 - Dumfries & Caerlaverock Castle

We’re spending the week driving Scotland’s South West 300 mile route in a camper van. In this first part, we discover Caerlaverock Castle, explore Dumfries and go in search of Robert Burns!
If you’ve done the NC500, you may want to do the SW300, not as popular but a great alternative if you’re looking for a new adventure in Scotland! Follow our travels on this new series, and if you haven’t already, don’t forget to subscribe, as it helps to grow our channel!

Nice van. Just love these castles

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Thanks Max, Scotland has some of the best castles around!

[@stlouisix3]

Handsome, wonderful Dumfries and Caerlaverock Castle!

[@RaymondoLeeTravel]

Lovely adventure! Love the castle a lot. Great start to your adventure!

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Thank you so much...

[@HuplesCat]

Scotland is awesome. Lovely van. Shame about the traffic

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Oh we eventually lose the traffic down those quiet scottish lanes...

[@ervinslens]

You nailed it once again, so nicely edited! The atmosphere during your film is just brilliant, and it constantly hints at something new that needs to happen, and that is so difficult to achieve throughout the entire video! 👏

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Thank you, we loved it there...

[@DesmondsDonders]

We were at Caerlaverock last week. Great little Aire and a fantastic castle.

[@catherinewoods3132]

I was surprised you could park overnight at that spot. Though I agree that the view was magnificent.

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Hi Catherine, it was a quiet area, as you'll see on our next vlog we had the place to ourselves overnight, which was great.

[@CraigDroneAdventures]

Brilliant video. I always hear people doing the NC500, but not the SW300.

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Thank you. We did the NC500 a few years ago, so were keen eventually to try this, not as popular, but some stunning coastal views.

[@Ourhomeschooladventures]

Looks like a great adventure! I’ve have always wanted to rent a camper van for a camping trip one day. This was a joy to see!

[@RileyRoams]

We love Scotland too! We can’t wait to go back and it would be so fun to do in a camper van. Caerlavarock Castle is so pretty- never heard of that one. Candice, Andrew, & Riley 🐾

[@WyeExplorer]

Great start to the tour Simon - cool van. Gotta say, 'wow wow wow,' a proper castle and we have loads where we are. Well, good to be in Burns country. All the best. Mark

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Cheers Mark, we had plenty of ups and downs on this trip, as future vlogs will show...

[@WyeExplorer]

@@unowhotravelchannel A pleasure Simon - yeah 'use it or loose it' as they say.

[@craigbetts1586]

great way to travel renting a camper van, looking forward to your adventures in Scotland, should be a good series from what you showed so far in part 1

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Thank you Craig, we always enjoy Scotland, the weather is so changeable and the views are breathtaking...

[@CampervanTales]

Playing catch up on your videos. We are doing this route in October. Really looking forward to following in your footsteps.....or tyre tracks😊

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Thank you both, hope you're well. I'm hoping to do a follow up vlog sometime, comparing the SW300 to the NC500, very different routes!

[@CampervanTales]

@@unowhotravelchannel we are currently showing the NLAND250 that we did last year and planning the same type of comparison between the two.

[@unowhotravelchannel]

@@CampervanTales Yes, I’ve started to look at your vlogs of this route, a new one to add to our list👍
