What customers say
Linwater Caravan Park gets thumbs up for spot-on cleanliness, top-notch kitchen and showers, and loads of space for your rig. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Great spot for hopping onto public transport to Edinburgh. Mostly chilled vibes, though a bit of plane or road noise here and there. Definitely recommended for the quality and what you get for your buck.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Perfection!
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked This campsite is beautifully maintained - the grass and hedges were perfectly neat, the toilets and showers were immaculately clean throughout our stay (3 nights), there is a kitchen area (also spotless) with everything you could possibly need, from washing up supplies to books, DVDs, spare wellie boots, board games and even a Nintendo Wii! There were washing machines and dryers to use for a small charge and a shop on site. The staff were so friendly and accommodating!
Disliked This is a very very minor dislike (not really an issue at all but worth mentioning) - the site is fairly close to the airport so you can hear the planes going over every 15 mins or so. Didn’t bother us personally!

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Beautiful walks through the woods and along the tow path next to canal. Very clean site with EHU and fresh water (bring your own hose) next to site. Well stocked shop with all the basics. Toilets spotless. Didn’t use washing facilities but they looked clean and also had cooking facilities. Only met 1 member of staff in reception but she was very helpful. Definately recommend and would use again for a short break.
