Liked: We liked the communication and it wasn't a problem to arrive late. Clear instructions,warm welcome. The site is clean with lovely shower facilities. Extra bonus was for us to be able to cook in the community kitchen,the kids were able to play games. We appreciated reduce waste ideas for unused food. It was a lovely initiative. We had lots of food on our last stay and we were happy to share the food,books and DVD's which we couldn't take home with us. We did rental touring holiday and they fly back to home country.

Liked: Everything. Top quality shower block, level pitches and very friendly staff. Convenient for the park and ride tram to Edinburgh and close enough to Falkirk Kelpes and Wheel.
Disliked: If I had to be picky, it is relatively near the flight path from Edinburgh airport but not really an issue.
