Unpowered grass tent site (medium)
Liked: Loved this site. Great facilities, beautiful location and fab staff. Really accommodating and helpful. Toilets/showers clean and hot. Plug socket available (often struggle for this at other sites). No parking next to pitch but wheelbarrows available to use.
Disliked: The ground was really stoney and very frustrating when trying to peg my tent. Think I chose the wrong stop as seemed better further down the hill.

Unpowered grass tent site (large)
Liked: Location - lovely having a site in the middle of the country park. Great flat pitches. Good pop-up campsite. Convenient for accessing Edinburgh and the Lothians. Good public transport links as well as road access.
Disliked: Toilet and shower block could do with being cleaned to better a standard. Backs of toilet doors were dirty and shower water just pooled in the doorway rather than having a drain to take it away.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear you loved our campsite. We appreciate your feedback regarding the toilet and shower block. Although toilets are checked and cleaned hourly during opening hours, we will aim to improve this standard for next year. We hope to welcome you back again next year.
