What customers say
Top-notch, tidy campsite with brilliant, modern amenities like showers and a kitted-out kitchen. Guests rave about the bloke-ish staff, roomy spots, and ace base for Edinburgh and local walks. Minor gripes: a bit of plane noise sometimes, and not heaps of shops on site. All in all, chuck a recommendation at it.

Liked Review for Linwater Caravan Park – 9/10
We had a fantastic stay at Linwater Caravan Park and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-maintained spot near Edinburgh.
The location is excellent, just a short drive from Edinburgh Airport and conveniently close to Just Go Motorhomes, which made our motorhome drop-off incredibly easy and stress-free.
One of the standout features of the park is the exceptionally clean and modern ablution blocks. You can tell they’re well cared for and regularly maintained – definitely among the best we’ve seen at any caravan park.
The staff were engaging, helpful, and genuinely pleasant, adding a warm and welcoming touch to our stay. Whether it was assistance with check-in or local advice, they were always happy to help.
The park itself is very relaxed, peaceful, and beautifully maintained – a great place to unwind. Everything from the pitches to the communal areas was spotless and thoughtfully laid out.
Overall, a solid 9 out of 10. The quality, cleanliness, and calm atmosphere more than make up for it.
We’d absolutely stay again!
Disliked A Refreshing Escape from the Digital World
We recently stayed at Linwater Caravan Park, and overall, it was a truly delightful experience. The park is beautifully maintained, peaceful, and surrounded by the kind of natural beauty that immediately helps you unwind.
There are several options to suit different types of stays — from well-kept touring pitches to more luxurious static caravans and lodges. Everything was clean, quiet, and thoughtfully laid out, making it a perfect spot for couples, families, or anyone just needing a break from the rush of daily life.
One important note for fellow travellers: Wi-Fi is only available in the kitchen/common area — there’s no park-wide connection. Initially, this was a bit of a disappointment, especially in the evenings when you might want to unwind with a film or catch up online. However, we realised what a hidden blessing it was.
Without the usual distractions of streaming services, endless scrolling, we actually ended up talking more — really talking — with each other. Cards came out, conversations flowed, and we reconnected in a way that’s often lost in today’s screen-heavy world. There’s only so many films you can watch in a row.
So while the lack of full Wi-Fi may be a drawback for some, it also creates a unique opportunity to slow down and engage with the people.
All in all, Linwater Caravan Park offers a lovely mix of comfort, nature, and the chance to disconnect — in the best possible way. We’d definitely return (though we might bring a few more board games next time!).

Liked Spotlessly clean, great showers with excellent hot water supply. The camping kitchen and community room was excellent, well equipped (in fact it was extraordinary in that it had books, dvds, and spare wellies to borrow) and a great place to be.

Liked Spacious hardstanding pitch with electric and water .
Well maintained site .
Modern toilet/shower facilities.
Free hairdryer.
Only 10 minutes drive to the Ingliston tram park and ride .
Disliked The road to and from the site , it is seriously in need of resurfacing . The volume if potholes and uneven surface is crazy . The local council should be ashamed . I feel sorry for residents using the road . Take extra care while driving this road , we now have a knocking noise from underneath.
