Liked: The quite peaceful campsite tucked away in the hills but loved that it was only a short drive to busy and exciting capital. Was perfect to come back to after a long day to relaxe.
Disliked: Could have done with some better facilities but in away was quite natural and proper camping experience.

Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked: The peace on the side is so valuable. Toilets are clean water is available. We enjoyed our stay. Later on the journey we learned that many campers avoided Edinburgh as they could not find a site around the city. For us in no need of electricity for the night this place was a perfect solution. We have enjoyed our stay.
Disliked: Be aware that you might not receive a signal out her and there is no wifi option. Its not too bad to be cut off for some time. Regarding the location I needed help on the very last bit of the street and gave th owner a call. Very friendly guidance was received.

Liked: Rustig
Disliked: Sanitair zonder verlichting en oudbollig. Wel proper
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Unfortunately, these campers failed to realise that, as we state that there is no electricity on the site, so there are no lights. The only option would be to run a noisy generator all night, which we do not think would fit with the peaceful nature of the site.
Silence the diggers and you have a perfect site

Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked: All we wanted a basic site with a field and a loo and that is exactly what we got, so perfect for us. Definitely not into ‘holiday parks’! There is a wonderful woodland walk along the river only 100 yds up the road, which was quite idyllic: a real treasure!
Disliked: What sounded like diggers or tractors working in the farm yard next to the site all evening which ruined the peace and tranquility of the place. We had to retreat into the camper van to escape the noise. This was disappointing but the only negative. Although the price was the same as for other sites which had hot showers and other amenities
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: This was a one off problem. We were trying to improve the entrance road, as it was a bit bumpy and muddy. Unfortunately, the digger operator was only available in the evening and we tried to do the work as quickly as possible, finishing at 9pm. I am sorry about the noise on this occasion.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Quiet and secluded site. Level ground for tents, beautiful area, nice horses! Sheltered from wind. No mobile service was a positive and negative.
Disliked: Toilet facilities could be improved I.e. removing the wasp nest from the womens toilet. Was difficult to find; called the owner to clarify where we were going but no answer. There was a wedding party in the field next to us which carried on late into the night which I would have liked to have been warned about.

From the manager: Unfortunately, I have just got out of hospital and the wasps nest must have appeared while I was away. I will get someone to look for and remove it. As for the wedding, this was the son of a neighbour and, regrettably, we had no idea they were going to hold the party there. My husband did suggest to the other campers, that day, that we could move them to another part of the farm farther away, but we never actually saw Katie, or we would have offered the same.
