A very picturesque country estate situated on the south side of the City of Edinburgh and only 4 miles from Princes Street. Mortonhall is Edinburgh's premier park and it offers the ideal holiday contrast of country living and city entertainment. Set within a 200 acre country estate, lies the beautifully maintained camping and caravan park. Walkers will especially enjoy the signed 'paths for all' access system throughout the estate. The parks facilities include The Stable Bar and Restaurant providing a varied menu for all tastes and pockets. We have a great choice of pitches ranging from full service hardstands to well kept grass. The park also boasts heated toilet blocks with ample free hot water, family and disabled facilities, games and television room, laundry, kitchen and play area.
