What customers say
Highly recommended, super clean campsite with big pitches & modern facilities. Staff are great & location's handy for Edinburgh. A bit of plane/road noise but mostly peaceful. Good kitchen & walks.

Best site we have stayed on.…
Electric grass pitch
Liked Best site we have stayed on. Lovely helpful staff, large pitches, clean tidy site, quiet, secure and peaceful. The toilets, shower and kitchen facilities were brilliant - made a long stay a breeze! Also highly recommend the pizza van which stops on a Saturday

Beautiful setting.
Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch
Liked Spotlessly clean.
Lovely area with good walking for dogs.
Disliked Paid for fully serviced spot but wasn’t able to access electric. Couldn’t get hold of anyone to query as we were out of hours. No mobile network to call.
Hairdryer didn’t work - not a big deal but more of an inconvenience.
Noisy morning with all the airplanes heading in and out of airport close by.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Warm welcome. Great camping kitchen facilities if you wanted to use them. Super easy to get into Edinburgh on park and ride. Lovely shower block.
Disliked It would've been even better if we had access to wi-fi outside of the camping kitchen area. Not a big deal for us though!
