What customers say
Site's quiet with generous spots and welcoming owners. However, many report poor cleanliness and outdated washrooms, some unusable. Pub is closed. Road noise is an issue for some. Efforts are noted, but washroom quality remains a concern.

Next to noisy A road, absolutely filthy showers and toilets
Power optional grass campsite
Liked Friendly owners
Disliked Filthy showers and toilets- looks like they hadn’t been cleaned in months, worst I’ve ever seen - so bad it should be advertised without toilet / shower and cheaper

Overall the people and location was great and could be a fantastic
Power optional grass campsite
Liked Location was nice, the flexibility of pitch was great, run by two friendly people was ok for one night stay over in our travels
Disliked The water tap would have been difficult to get to if there was a caravan on that pitch as it is in between two pitches, we didn’t book electric as the website stated 6 amps but it was actually 16 amps, the shower weren’t the cleanest and one of the women’s showers were out of order and the other was flat cold, no toilet roll in the women’s toilets either, this could be a fantastic site but needs some improvements to it

Power optional grass campsite
Liked Only thing to like was the friendly owners, grass was soft and views are good
Disliked I would defo avoid this place, you may as well have camped on the a1 at this rate, speeding cars, lorrys and motorbikes right behind the tent. Really unsafe incase an accident happens. Mens toilets were very bad ans i heard the womens was worse with cracks in the floor, youd think the owners would sort it out as its a hazard. I feel sorry for the people living on there. Then the owner in his fancy car and little quad bike checking on us 24/7, dont get me wrong they were very kind and welcoming but jesus christ leave us alone! No parks or food places within a 5 mile radius, first time here never again. The reception is in a bloody caravan like come on! At least build a proper building if it aint making money cut ya loses and leave, if the owners cant pay to upgrade their facilites then just sell the place. Sorry but avoid everyone!

Avoid !!!
Power optional grass campsite
Liked There really wasn't nothing to like other then the people who live there were friendly but I actually feel for them as the place is scruffy
Disliked Where do I start I think the owners need to give up they can't manage this site , the pot area to clean no hot water to clean your dishes and sinks full of bird shit , first day toilets and shower block deplorable never seen the cleaning stuff used showers floors and sinks scruffy toilets blocked with shit to the top no toilet roll crack in shower tray which looked unsafe to use then the shower tray totally broke owner never even knew ,everyone had to que to use one shower to find out it was cold water , told the owner told to us to use the gents I'm not taking my small children in gents toilets which I heard wasn't much better while on site owner come round in different vehicles people watching just felt like we were getting watched all the time we spoke to other campers who up and left due to the horrendous conditions of the place and people feeling like they couldn't breathe due to owner constantly driving up and down. Nothing for kids to do no play park as it shows no pub now as closed down , this is def do a one to avoid

Won't go back
Power optional grass campsite
Liked Location good,only 10 mins to coldstream or Berwick
Disliked Where to begin...what a dump....the pics on pitch up are not current..they are old and out of date ...the pub " the salutation inn" has apparently been closed for years...all boarded up and was raided a few weeks ago for growing cannabis in there...the site is a dirty field...there are approx 22 statics at the start of the "park" ..some are lovely,well kept with nice people ...the rest look like a shanty town...the "reception "is a dirty caravan with stop sighs outside...the touring pitches were at the bottom of the field approx 150_200 yds from toilets ...which were disgusting...( We used our own facilities) There is no access for disabled customers either to the toilets or showers...( Even though it says there are)there is no separate gray waste, the chemical toilet waste and the gray waste are the same and is an uncovered manhole behind the toilets..only 1 water tap that we were told but it had so many hose extensions on it you had to play water jenga to get the one that filled your bottle .you are right next to a main road which is constant however this does quieten down on a night
Although dog friendly there are no dedicated dog walking facilities on site...we did meet some lovely people in some of the statics...the only good thing about it bar location...there is a sign saying under new management...however that has been there quite a while ...and the owners " don't give a s++t"
we were told...we use pitch up all year round but I think as a company you need to investigate this place ...it's shambolic ...

Power optional grass campsite
Liked Well situated lots to do in the local area.
Disliked Very loud difficult to sleep due to main road 10 feet from the back of the pitch.
Very poor facilities, very run down, showers dirty and not cleaned dutlring whope stay, 1 of 2 toilets blocked in the women's the whole time we were there.
Toilet block opposite end of site from the campsite, walking through 20 plus static caravans to get to them.
Noise from heavy trailers 4x4 and vans as workers living on site.

Only positive was decent pitch.
Power optional grass campsite
Liked The pitch itself. Tidy, clean and away from the numerous dodgy looking static holiday caravans and the smell of weed emanating from the first caravan.
Disliked The reception caravan. I’m really sorry but it’s not a pleasant welcome to the site to be invited into the ‘reception’ which is someone’s caravan which subsequently smells really bad…it was awful, to sign in. This could easily have been done out side.
Now I took the negative reviews (numerous) about the toilets with a pinch of salt hoping to be proven wrong, but I wasn’t. Men’s toilets-two urinals. Both smelt bad and not clean. The flushing toilet. Flushed and had some cleaning product hanging off the rim that worked when flushed, but there was what I can only describe as baked on excrement around the rim. No toilet roll. No paper towels or hand drying facility.
Two showers. One went from scolding hot to cold but would not regulate. The other worked thank goodness but height was too short (I’m not that tall).
Overall, the toilet and shower block was disgusting and dirty. I’ve been to many weekend music festivals and the toilets and showers there were cleaner. Basics….if people are camping you at least hope to have half decent clean and hygienic facilities.
