Just back from a short break at Lauder C&CC site, and was impressed by the location, the pitches and the shower block/toilets.
The wardens are excellent, lovely people, very helpful and friendly and are a credit to the club and the site.
Ideal base for exploring the borders, with kelso, Galashiels, etc all reasonably close by and doesn't take long to get there.
If I have one criticism, then it is lack of facilities for children. The information given on this website is it has a kids play area, sadly this isn't the case and according to the wardens there never has been a kids play area. So being there with 4 kids expecting a play area, they were a bit disappointed.
But all in all a great site and one I would visit again without a doubt.

Immaculate well run site with very friendly wardens.
Toilets/showers spotlessly clean complete with fresh flowers. Nice quiet location away from main roads but not walking distance to Lauder.
£16.50 per night for 2 adults with EHU was good value for money.
Would make ideal stop off point if travelling north or south.
Hotel with restaurant nearby but a bit expensive, £8.50 for a pint and a wine spritzer.

I have to agree this is a gem of a site, and Keith and Carol are a credit to the site and to the CCC, so friendly and helpful.
The facilities are always clean and plenty hot water for showers. I loved the burn that ran behind our caravan but not as much as the dogs did.
I have never seen as may varieties of birds in one place so a great site for bird watchers
We hope to go back soon and may even try one of the lodges that are also on the site.

Stayed at this site for 4 nights. It's an absolute gem. We are CCC members and thus far, it's the best.
On arrival, though the reception wasn't open (it's open 9am-11am and then 4pm-6pm) the site assistants were easy to find as they were busy tending the site, and once we'd met, nothing was too much trouble. Ricky and Chris were just what you would wish to have as Site Assistants. Friendly, warm and welcoming. Being a CCC member for a number of years I don't generally single out individuals for praise but I will on this occasion. Top notch, both of them. I was amazed when they said they had only been in the job seven weeks. If CCC hierarchy have any sense, retain them and let them continue with their wonderful sense of what it takes to run a site.
Pitch was excellent on well kept grass. Surrounding views, lovely. River, Burn, Brook or however you would describe it, runs at the bottom of the site. Bird watchers, you would love it.
The information provided on site, strangely in the Laundry Room, with regard to local amenities is top notch. Carefully considered and well presented. We had a number of queries with regard to visiting the Royal Yacht and Edinburgh Castle. Although Ricky and Chris didn't have any first-hand experience they were eager to learn of our experience. Indeed, they made a point of letting us know they had told several people of our tips.
I support all comments with regard to the facilities. My only reservation, and this is a gripe with many CCC Club Sites, is push-button showers.
If I have another gripe then it would be the fact that the entry barrier is closed throughout the day. It's not locked, as it is with other CCC sites between 11pm-7am, but it is bolted. Means if you are leaving or returning from the site, you have to get out, open and close the barrier.
Two minor gripes. Would I recommend this site? Wholeheartedly. We wouldn't be planning on returning this coming Autumn otherwise.

Have I just found my favourite camp-site? I think so.
This small site has loads going for it, quiet and peaceful, but only a short drive or bus trip to get into Edinburgh or Lauder. And a great pub with good food, at the top of the driveway.
We used the site as a base to explore the 3 Abbeys and some castles in the boarders, and had a great time.
For this trip I booked the electric hook up, as it was April, and this is Scotland, which put us next to the small burn that flows the length of the site. The drainage on the site is really good, there was a lot of rain, and the puddles drained away reasonably quickly, but that gives for some hard ground to get the pegs in.
The wardens were good with my two boy's who loved going to the shop to order the rolls and papers, and to collect the next morning. One small point that parents might want to be aware of is that the field for ball games, also doubles up as the area for tents, so if the site is busy there will be no ball games, not an issue in April.
Lastly I must mention the toilets and showers. Even the kids talked about how clean they were. The cleanest camp-site I've been to.

Just returned from a very relaxed holiday after spending 13 nights on this campsite.
We were made to feel very welcome as soon as we arrived.
The facilities were excellent, always very clean and tidy, lovely hot water at all times.
The campsite is very quiet and peaceful, and if your lucky enough like us to be close enough you can hear the running water of the burn and the bleating sheep.
Bob, Sheena, Jean, and Julian are all lovely friendly people who all offer a personal touch from the minute you arrive to the minute you leave.
We as a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 children aged 11, 10 and 4) would have no hesitation of returning to this site and would recommend it to anyone.
