A Holiday Park in Dumfries & Galloway has been awarded a Four Star Quality Assurance (QA) award from VisitScotland.
Lighthouse Leisure Caravan Park on the Solway coast at Southerness was upgraded to Four Stars following a recent assessment visit by a Quality Tourism Advisor, in recognition of the excellent quality of accommodation on offer.
The static and touring caravan park is only a short walk from Southerness beach and the historic lighthouse which is open to the public. There is also a leisure centre with pool, coffee shop, entertainments room and children’s soft play area.
Developed and improved for over 30 years, VisitScotland’s Quality Assurance (QA) schemes are world-leading and provide a trusted, independent and impartial source of information for visitors. They allow businesses not just to meet visitor expectations, but exceed them.
QA can open the door to new customers. It is a powerful marketing tool and works well with online review sites in using an independent perspective to measure visitor experience against tried and tested criteria, so visitors know exactly what to expect.
Doug Wilson, VisitScotland Regional Director, said: “Congratulations to Lighthouse Leisure Caravan Park on receiving this well-deserved award. This award is a welcome boost to the business as well as the region as a whole. Having local businesses which place an emphasis on high quality further strengthens our tourism offering and increases our marketability of Dumfries & Galloway as a destination which offers a superb and exciting range of things to see and do.”
Sylvia Hunt, General Manager of Lighthouse Leisure Caravan Park, said: “We are delighted to have been awarded the Four Star QA Award from VisitScotland for our holiday park. We are committed at Lighthouse Leisure to offering our visitors the highest standards to ensure their experience of our accommodation and Dumfries & Galloway as a whole is the very best. Our facilities are ideal for families as well as people wanting a base to enjoy the unspoilt beauty of the Solway Coast.”
