  • 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

Generous, flat sites and good value got the thumbs up. Friendly staff and a prime spot for exploring the coast and towns were highlights. The modern bar and restaurant served up tasty grub. However, the loos and showers were a bit grim, needing an update, with occasional hot water and cleanliness hiccups. Some found WiFi pricey and facilities not serviced often enough.

Sarah H.

Powered concrete slab caravan site (super)

Liked Unfortunately due to ill health and having being admitted to hospital for surgery I was unable to come. I did contact pitch up.com who advised me to contact the site directly to ask if I could change the booking for later in the year. Happy to pay additional costs . However neither pitchup.com or the site itself could facilitate this amendment Unfortunately so ive missed out and not eligible for refund . So im very disappointed

Disliked Would still love to come if myoriginal booking could be amended , unfortunately needing emergency hospital treatment i was unable to make it , very disappointed

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for sharing your experience Sarah. We’re truly sorry to hear about your situation and understand how disappointing this must be. Unfortunately, amendments and refunds are subject to the booking terms, but we appreciate your feedback and hope you’ll be able to visit us in the future when you’re feeling better.

Best wishes, Team Verdant

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.
