P unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site
Liked: A cracking site located in a beautiful part of the Borders. Pitches are well marked and spaced out, facilities very clean and new looking. Showers warm and overall really good value. Warden's on site to welcome and show you allocated pitch - very friendly. There is an excellent pub/restaurant literally a 2 minute walk from site that offers great food and a warm atmosphere.

Liked: It was a really nice site. The wardens were really welcoming. Showers were great really clean and warm. Next door was The Horse and Hound bar and restaurant. Very welcoming. Food was good and the locals all had a sing song at the end of the night. The instruments were hung on the wall and anyone was welcome to have a go. Great atmosphere. Would definitely stay there again.

Unpowered concrete and grass tent or motorhome site
Liked: Good facilities onsite, warden was friendly but appeared totally oblivious to the noise his barking dog was making, local pub with friendly staff and lovely food.
Disliked: I had booked in for 2 nights, but unfortunately I left after only one night due to the wardens dog constantly barking. Every other visitor on the site also had dogs. Whenever someone walked past the wardens caravan which was next to the shower block his dog would bark, then all the other dogs on the site started barking... This would happen every 20-30 minutes ..The dog was quite as evening came, probably because it was inside the caravan, but at 6am the following morning the wardens dog started barking again, but none of the other dogs on site started barking. I would think it's the wardens job to set a good example, if he couldn't keep his dog quite it should never have been on site.. Would I stay here again...No, not if the wardens dog was onsite.. I would have had a totally different experience had the wardens dog not been there..

From the manager: Hi Gary. Sorry to hear about your recent experience at our campsite. We rotated our wardens during the weekend of your stay and can only imagine the distraction of the handover being the cause as we have had no other reports from other guests of the same issue during their stays. Nevertheless i'm sorry you had to endure the noise from the dog. I hope you give us another opportunity to enjoy our little campsite as the experience is not the norm and we pride ourselves on maintaining a peaceful and quiet environment.
