Quaas Loaning Park

If you’re passing through Lockerbie on the M74, this place is worth pulling off for — genuinely. The fenced enclosure means you’re not spending the whole visit watching the exits, and the climbing frame with slide keeps kids busy long enough for a proper sit-down on the benches. Swings are the nest and traditional variety, so there’s something for different ages. It’s kept in good nick too, which you don’t always get at smaller town parks like this.
