What customers say

This is a well-maintained and clean campsite, praised for its friendly and helpful staff. Visitors highlight the lovely setting, often by the river, and appreciate the clean, modern facilities including showers and toilets. The well-kept pitches, some fully serviced, are a recurring positive point. The on-site pizza van and free-roaming chickens are popular bonuses. While generally quiet, some guests note occasional road noise, particularly on pitches closer to the main road. The site is considered a good base for exploring local towns and countryside.

Disliked Not the park's fault but the Internet in the area is dismal at best park guests' Wi-Fi is reasonable but I think in high season would be struggling again not the park's fault but in the 21st century Internet access should not be an issue

Liked Friendly and helpful welcome. Location with walks along the river. Dark sky location. Warm toilet block.

Disliked One toilet was out of order, and another had a broken door. Showers could have a flip down seat, or seating at wash hand basin area.

Half an hour away, Selkirk is where William Wallace was famously declared guardian of Scotland; three miles from there, have an afternoon at Bowhill House for more woodland walks and dramatic antics from its on-site theatre.
