Melrose Gibson Park Club Campsite is nestled on the edge of Melrose in a peaceful setting that is overlooked by the beautiful Eilden Hills, once named Trimontium by the Romans. A short walk from the caravan park are the charming shops, lovely restaurants and pubs and historic buildings of Melrose, including the famous ruins of Melrose Abbey, the resting place of Robert the Bruce's heart.
Walking enthusiasts will be delighted when visiting Melrose Gibson Park Club Campsite - there are 1,500 miles of footpaths to explore along the banks of the Tweed or by hiking up into the High Country to view the Borders' picturesque, rural patchwork. The caravan site also gives you easy access to excellent cycle routes as well as fishing in the River Tweed. Nearby Gibson Park has 60 pitches for golfing enthusiasts and if you are a fan of rugby, the second Saturday in April hosts the annual Melrose Sevens Rugby Tournament. Another event not to be missed is the colourful Melrose Festival, held in mid June each year. There is plenty to see and do in the local area and the site is also well placed for exploring the Scottish Borders.
Visitors to Melrose Gibson Park can now take advantage of the new railway line that connects the Scottish Borders to Edinburgh. The site is around 1.5 miles (30 minutes' walk) from Tweedbank Station, and the train can get you into the heart of Edinburgh in just 55 minutes, avoiding the traffic and park and ride.

A lovely site near to the town
Melrose Gibson Park Club Campsite
A lovely site which had been recommended to use. The site is well maintained and the facilities, although old, are well maintained and spotlessly clean. The site is on the edge of the town and there are many walking trails and paths close by. It's surprisingly quiet as it's so close to the town. We would have liked to stay longer, but will return when we are next in Scotland.

Short stay
Melrose Gibson Park Club Campsite
Had a lovely stay one night heading up to Scotland and again on return. Wardens are lovely and helpful and site is very well looked after. Beautiful town and walks from the site. children’s play area and tennis court around the corner. Plenty of eating places and interesting shops. Would love to return. Very good for us with dogs. Only problem is the facilities are very dated and small so maybe wouldn’t be happy for any length of time but fine for a short stay. Needs updating. However they are kept as clean as possible given their age. All credit due to the wardens. Really hope upgraded facilities are planned. Then it would be a fantastic site.

Great site
Melrose Gibson Park Club Campsite
Just returned from Melrose had lovely time,wardens were great and ever so efficient.Great site and close to town centre.Toilet block could do with upgrading .
Perfect location if you don’t want to drive
Melrose Gibson Park Club Campsite
Nice site although we did find manoeuvring a bit tight. Really friendly wardens. One toilet block which is very clean but there are only four toilets. Small but adequate dog walk. Excellent location. You walk out of the site and straight into Melrose which has plenty of interest: shops, cafes, bars etc. Pubs were quite lively and noisy on the Saturday we visited and booking was required for a table even though it was early in the day. Recommend you download the ‘Melrose Paths’ for circular routes that start and finish in the village. We really enjoyed the walk along the River Tweed. We didn’t have much choice of a pitch when we arrived and ended up backing onto the tennis court. The noise of the balls going back and forward isn’t too bad but the shouting and effing and blinding from the players got a bit irritating after a while.
another great stay
Melrose Gibson Park Club Campsite
once again another wonderful stay at Melrose Gibson Park, toilet block was spotless, the grounds were immaculate, and as always the staff were helpful and courteous. An ideal location just on the edge of the town, close to the bus stops and cafés.
