Edinburgh CC

Excellent site in the suburbs of Edinburgh. Friendly welcome from the staff, and an impression of quiet efficiency. The site has a large choice of pitches, which you can choose yourself. Site and facilities are spotlessly clean.  Great toilet and shower block, and water/elsan points in abundance.

Some reviews are noting noise from traffic and airplanes. Let me put my perspective on this... The traffic noise from the adjacent road is not unacceptable. We were pitched almost beside the road, and found the noise level to be quite acceptable. If you choose your pitch toward the centre of the site, noise from the road will be reduced. Yes, there is aircraft noise, but again, it's not disturbing.  Let's be clear. If you want a site which is 15 minutes drive from the centre of a city with a population of best part of 500,000 there WILL be people around you. Those people need to travel. (Ask yourself - How did you get there? - You drove past someone's house, making traffic noise...) Of course there will be a little road noise, and there will be some aircraft noise, too. It's the payoff for being in a centre of population. If you want total silence, choose a site in the middle of nowhere, and spend an hour driving to Edinburgh each day. If you want a fantastic site 15 minutes from the centre of the capital of our country, book here. I would hope that we're all sensible enough to realise that there are times for chilling our in the backwaters of the country, and times for being a little closer to the hub of things. We're already booked to go back to this site in 3 weeks time, and it cannot come quickly enough.
