Touring pitches

  • Seaside escape 10 minutes' drive from award-winning Coldingham Sands
  • Watersports paradise: try surfing, kayaking, diving and bodyboarding
  • An hour’s drive from Edinburgh
They say being by the ocean is good for your health… If that’s true, a stay at Coldingham Bay Leisure Park, a site on the Berwickshire coast of Scotland, might be even better than an apple a day. Coldingham Bay is a top spot for seaside getaways, less than 10 minutes’ drive from the award-winning Coldingham Sands. This is Scotland, so you may not get the beach weather you’re dreaming of, but if the climate isn’t cooperating, go for a stroll along the shore and take in the view of the North Sea and St Abbs from one of Berwickshire’s few sandy beaches nearby. You don’t have to stay on dry land to see the Berwickshire coast – Coldingham Bay is a haven for watersports, and you can take to the seas for surfing, diving, sea kayaking and bodyboarding, all of which are within easy reach of the site. Back on site, let the kids burn off energy at the playground, then fire up the barbecue for an evening feast – pick up the necessary supplies from the shop a few minutes’ walk away in Coldingham. If you fancy a break from cooking, there are plenty of restaurants in Eyemouth, 10 minutes’ drive from Coldingham Bay.

What customers say

Guests generally praised the spacious pitches, friendly staff, and excellent location for exploring the coast. The on-site restaurant and bar were popular, with good food and modern facilities. However, several reviews highlighted that the toilet and shower blocks are dated and require an update, with some issues noted regarding cleanliness and hot water. Booking amendments were difficult for one guest due to unforeseen circumstances.

Liked Club house very nice , food and drinks we're lovely too , welcomed at reception with a smile , campsite area was well matained

Disliked Was not informed that the shower and toilet block was under refurbishment stand in showers we’re awful, it would of been nice to of been informed, so we could of organised a shower before arriving, we have a 7.5 motorhome and it didn’t fit into the space and had to back into a bush to make sure it was off the road ,

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear you enjoyed the clubhouse, food and drinks, the warm welcome at reception, and the well‑maintained campsite. We’re sorry that you weren’t informed in advance about the refurbishment of the shower and toilet block, and that the temporary facilities did not meet expectations.

Liked Great site and helpful staff. The onsite pub/restaurant was nice, the food reasonable.
The toilet block was being refurbished while we were there, but there were temporary toilets and showers. These were very good - not your usual porta-loos.
Overall very impressed.

Local attractions

Ramblers, cyclists and adventurers of all types will be well served at Coldingham Bay Leisure Park. Start with a stroll along the woodland paths accessible straight from the site, then graduate to something a little more challenging: the Southern Upland Way starts a 20-minute drive away in Cockburnspath and the Berwickshire Coastal Path can be picked up at the nearby bay. In the land of 'the Scottish play’, it should come as no surprise that castles, historic buildings and ruins are in no short supply around here: explore the remains of Coldingham Priory 15 minutes’ walk away, or head to Preston Mill, Paxton House, Bamburgh Castle or Ford & Etal Estates, all within an hour of the site. Beer fans have come to the right place too – Belhaven Brewery, Scotland’s oldest working brewery, is half an hour’s drive away. Make the trip for tours of the 300 year old craft brewery, stories from the beers’ history and, of course, tastings in The Monks’ Retreat bar. If you’re seeking something a little more urban, Scotland’s capital is an hour away. Stroll along the Royal Mile from Holyrood to Edinburgh Castle, find Dean Village and Circus Lane in the New Town, play a round on Bruntsfield Links and climb Arthur’s Seat for views over the city. Edinburgh’s a paradise for foodies too, with everything from gastropubs to Michelin starred restaurants dotting the city.
