  • Nearly-wild camping field in West Lothian with views of the Pentlands
  • A 20-minute drive from the Forth Bridge; Edinburgh half an hour
  • On a working farm, with views over Arthur's Seat and Binnie Craig
Law Farm Campsite is a small-scale pop-up site in West Lothian. Set on a working farm and surrounded by spectacular rural scenery, it's a laidback place to take a break close to the Pentland Hills, Edinburgh's historic city centre and the UNESCO-listed Forth Bridge. This farm field is very grassy and spacious, so there's plenty of room between plots. The site has simple facilities like portable toilets, meaning that this is a place best suited to self-sustaining travellers who appreciate the chance to build a campfire or cook their own dinner over a barbecue. The views over hills including Arthur's Seat, Binnie Craig, Cairnpapple Hill and Cockleroy more than make up for the absence of mod cons. Law Farm Campsite is very family-friendly, and the kids may well like being able to see livestock in neighbouring fields. Well-behaved dogs on leads are also welcome to come along and join in on the action. The site is about a mile and a half from the small village of Dechmont where you can catch direct buses to Edinburgh (journeys typically take roughly 45 minutes). You are also a 10-minute drive from Broxburn, where there are supermarkets, shops, cafés and a post office.
