Woodland 2 bedroom safari tent

Liked: Lovely setting and so very peaceful, we enjoyed getting away from it all, and being set away from the main site, although only 10 minutes to get to the hub from Woodland Escape, for charging phones, having a shower etc. The tent is very well equipped and comfortable, plenty of bedding and blankets and hot water bottles, which we needed even though it was August! Gorgeous walk to Denholm, which has nice friendly pub, the Cross Keys, and a playground if you have young kids. The loo was easy to use and no unpleasant smells! Younger kids would LOVE this place as freedom to roam without cars, and the chance to explore on their own, so rare these days. Highly recommend this place and we will definitely come back. Staff very helpful and accommodating, facilities clean and nice to use. Ap on the phone, sent in advance, with all the information needed, was a huge bonus, very well thought out.

Disliked: It was too windy for an open fire on the first night, and quite windy the second night too. I'm not sure if we were unlucky or if it is a prevailing wind on Woodland Escape, it seemed to funnel over the hill directly to where the fire pit is. It would be much better moved to in front of the safari tent, so the tent acted as a windbreak, although it would of course have to be set well back. We forgot to bring salt and pepper and oil - that would have been nice to have had in the tent kitchen, as we couldn't do the popcorn which was provided.

Walled Garden primitive grass tent campsite (small)

Liked: Really well-kept site with great facilities, and the staff were super helpful.

Disliked: The site got a little busy on Friday night (middle of August) but everyone seemed to adhere to the 10 pm noise restrictions and there weren't any massive queues for any facilities.

Walled Garden primitive grass tent campsite (small)

Liked: Lovely place. Calm and refreshing. Shower block was good and clean, with decent water pressure.

Disliked: Was situated in a pitch on slope so after heavy rain very boggy when we left but not much could be done about it by site.

If you pick the woodland camp be prepared for the walk up the hill!

Local attractions

The owners of this park reckon one of the best activities in the area is climbing to the top of Ruberslaw for ace views east over Rulewater towards the Cheviot Hills and the English Border, west to Craik Forest and north over Teviotdale to the Eildon peak, the Moorfoot Hills and Ettrick Forest. If you’re after a longer stroll, the Borders Abbeys Way circular trail spanning 68 miles runs past Ruberslaw Wild Woods Camping, linking up historic border towns and old abbeys. You could also amble to Jedburgh to see the jail museum and Mary Queen Of Scots' Visitors Centre (a 15-minute drive or a couple of hours on foot). Prefer your walks to involve going from tee to tee? A couple of golf courses are within 10 minutes’ drive.
