Try the Old Clubhouse at nearby Gullane for some great food.
CC 160 Poolsbrook overnite stop enroute.
General notes.
Good we booked at each site the day before as most were surprisingly busy for September.
Nice people and generally an easy and enjoyable experience.
Toilet, shower and service points at all these sites were first rate.
As a first long trip with car and caravan it was good.
Not good was the funny shimmy from the car at low speed in the M1 roadworks followed by the offside caravan tyre blow out just before the services.
A blister had appeared on the inside tyre wall and blew out but the tyre did not fully deflate.
Put the spare on and drove on .......... So that's three new tyres to add to the bill.......
