The site was well signposted and easy to find. It is 5 minutes from the city bypass. Stayed here for 2 nights. The staff were friendly and welcoming.
The site has lots of caravan/motorhome pitches and lots of tent pitches in the lower field and more in the upper. It was quiet when we stayed with one tent pitched and maybe 2 dozen caravans.
The toilets and showers were spotlessly clean.
TV reception was good.
Nice wee pub restaurant on site.
There are plenty play areas for kids.
The only negative was that the hard standing pitches were a wee bit small.

My wife and I stayed for just one night on 14 September and
Must say that we thought the site was very peaceful and pleasant with nice surroundings, we must also agree with others who have submitted reviews saying that the pitches are, in many cases, just a little bit too close together.
We did however find that the toilet / shower block closest to our pitch in area (H) left more than just a little to be desired.
The shower curtains looked as though they had not been cleaned for quite some time with heavy deposits of body fat being visible and the water control valves for the showers were badly stained. The shower cubicles were also very small.
I did complain to the lady at reception, and received an immediate apology. Apart from the above complaint, the site is in a great location.

Just got back from a 2 night stop. Booked a few weeks ago for last minute plan to go to the fringe. It's a nice site with a good shop and friendly helpful staff.
They need to better define their pitches. We had trouble getting to ours in the centre section, as it didn't have roadways, then when people arrived the next day we were blocked in and surrounded, some pitched far too close together. Thankfully others had packed up by the time we needed to get our car out.
Also they could do with another 2 showers instead of 4 showers and 8 loos for the block in the main section, as had to queue, even before 7. Always clean though.
The site is well placed for the city centre, got the bus in and out really easily (£1. 40 for a single or £3. 50 for a day ticket to go in and out several times). You need the correct change in the week, but the bus company is on site on summer weekends to give advice and sell tickets. Takes about 15mins to get in.
Word of warning getting a late bus back around the time the tattoo finishes, very busy, lots couldn't get on, so they had to wait for the last bus (walk up to st Andrews sq rather than catching it on princes street). Got a taxi back last night, he drove like bat out of hell so it only cost us £13!
We would use it again for short city visit stops only, as we didn't like the squashed in layout and the ring road noise was loud when the wind was in the wrong direction.
However considering it's the busiest time of the year for Edinburgh and it is a city suburb site, not a country idyll, it wasn't half bad

Just back from a 3 night stay. Very busy due the edinburgh festival but still a quiet site. The playpark was ideal for the kids and a small amusement arcade kept them amused.
There is a TV room which was a nice wee extra. Two shower blocks very clean and well maintained one of the blocks has underfloor heating and massive cubicles.
Lovely walks in the Mortonhall estate and its only 10 mins from the city centre.
Small shop on site with basics but tesco is a 5 min drive away. The only thing I would fault is there is no evening entertainment which the kids look forward to.

What a lovely site set in the grounds of the hall, great walks round the grounds a garden centre with cafe good cup of tea, and a pub on site
The Stables that did good food along with other halfs favourite beer and had a cobbled courtyard to sit out in when the sun came out.
The toilet block was immaculate would have liked a couple of privacy cubicles but water was hot and showers good.
There was a shop on site that sold gifts and every thing else you would need and of course the lovely morning rolls (do miss them now home) along with papers.
There was a bus stop a couple of minutes from entrance straight into Princess Street which was as usual very busy will definitely be back.

Visited twice already, pitches are generous in size and facilities are brilliant. In windy days, the kitchen is really useful and convenient.
In June, we pitched at higher area (pitch #400+), which is the best location in the park from my opinion. It is a pity that the higher part pitches are only opened in summer, so we could not pitch there this time in Sep.
The toilet blocks in the upper part are excellent, all private bathrooms.
There are Toby Carvery nearby.
This site is a good base to visit Lothian area, as the Edinburgh city bypass is nearby, you do not have to get in and our the city all the time.
