Wigwam

Liked: The campsite had fab facilities including a play park and farm tour. The facilities were quirky, clean and more than we needed. We even woke to a visit from the easter bunny on sunday morning. The staff were friendly and made our visit.

Wigwam (private bathroom amenities)

Liked: We stayed in Bertie Bull (pod with en-suite toilet & shower) the pod was clean and tidy. Came with a microwave, toaster & kettle. Nice wee touch having a couple of cups / glasses with tea, coffee & sachets of milk.
Lovely family run site. Kitchen in the big house has everything you would need. Plates, pots & pans. Air fryer, oven & hob. Our favourite was the fresh eggs in the wee basket. The play parks & indoor games room are great for the kids. Little fire pits are in front of the pod which is nice in the evenings. The views were spectacular day & night. Farm tour was super interesting, our 6 year old couldn’t wait to go round again the following day. Thank you to the whole family for making us feel welcome. ❤️

Liked: Clean, warm and comfortable accommodation after a very long car journey. Bathroom was very clean, not always the case at campsites! Would have liked to have spent more time at Hilly Cow to enjoy the peace and quiet. Host Lesley came by for a chat in the morning and was lovely.

Local attractions

The attractions around this park are as offbeat as the wigwams inside of it. Drop by Potter Around for craft workshops (10 minutes’ drive), scale the walls at the Edinburgh International Climbing Arena (15 minutes) or have a crack at clay pigeon shooting (20 minutes). Slightly more conventional things to do include rifling the racks for bargains at the Livingston Designer Outlet (15 minutes) and visiting the animals at the Five Sisters Zoo (20 minutes). Creatures can also be viewed at Almond Valley, a watermill with a farm park, mini trains and play areas (20 minutes), or at the famed Edinburgh Zoo (half an hour). Stately homes more your thing? Lope around Linlithgow Palace (half an hour) to meander around the main residences of Scotland’s monarchs in the 15th and 16th centuries; Edinburgh, around the same distance, has enough intriguing architecture to fill days and days of explores, from the modern Holyrood parliament building to the ancient hilltop castle.
