 We stayed here recently in our tent and had a great time!
After reading the previous reviews about the toilet facilities, we came prepared as always with the trusty porta potti. There were no problems at all with the loos as they have installed 2 new porta loos for use in case of those urgent visits.
You just have to use the shower during the day instead of in the morning that's all
Lets face it folks, at a tenner a night for a family tent and 4 people, what do you want?? all singing, all dancing full personal valet?? I think not. We found it really pleasant and great value for money.
As with other certificated sites we've visited, you have to learn to live basically. This means a toilet tent, heating your own washing water etc.
Many certificated sites only provide a tap for drinking water and a disposal for elsan so this one is luxurious.
One of the great pluses with staying here is the peace and quiet you get and with it being not too large, you get a friendly atmosphere. The beaches south of Berwick are only a short drive away and there are plenty of walks and bike rides to go on.

This is a lovely tidy site in a nice area and usually peaceful, ball games are not allowed and no noise after 10pm.
Facilities are in a Portakabin, as you enter there is a washing up sink with hot water and plenty of space for drying pots, then the toilet, handbasin and shower are together in a smaller room which caused problems with queues most of the time we were there. There are also two Portaloos in the corner of the field which were a bit smelly as Portaloos tend to be, my 10yr old used them quite happily but the rest of us just queued!
There is lots to do nearby, it's only a short drive to Berwick for shopping, there is a Honey farm next door which is free and very interesting, the Union bridge is also very close by and you can walk along the riverbank to Paxton House.
The owners are both lovely, they told me they are planning more improvements to what is already a lovely site, including a new toilet block which they hope to have done for 2011.

Just got back from a fantastic weekend camping by Berwick. It was the 1st time that we have stayed at this campsite, and overall impressions were good. The views were fantastic, the campsite clean and the owners friendly.
BUT (there's always a but isn't there).
The toilet facilities were too small for the site. Maybe not a problem if you have a caravan, but in a tent, there has to be adequate toilet shower facilities.
On this site there is one toilet and one shower. That in itself wouldn't be so bad as it is only a small site, however they're both behind the same door. This caused endless queues and embarrassed rushed use of the facilities. It's such a shame as the facilities are kept clean and it lets down an otherwise excellent site.

We stayed here for 2 nights in our tent. The owner was very laissez-faire about the arrangements, didn't show us to a pitch or explain the facilities.
Like the previous reviewer we were rather shocked at the lack of said facilities. The toilet block is a small portacabin, divided into two rooms. The first is larger, and contains some leaflets and maps of 2 local walks, and a single sink for pot washing.
The second smaller room contains a single toilet and shower combined. This meant long waits to use the loo, and other campers feeling guilty about having a shower as no-one could use the loo!
Campers should note there is no facility to freeze cold elements for the cold box. We enquired, and were told they'd never been asked before!
There are two fields, one with 5 EHU points, used predominantly by caravanners, and a larger field for campers.
The nearest shop of any use is a Morrisons 4 miles or so away, which has an excellent selection.
All in all, ideal for a quiet caravan trip, but until the facilities are improved, not a place for campers.

We camped here from the 26th of June until the 29th. We were 7 people in 3 tents and one 2 berth caravan.
The site is located not far from the A1 near the border of Scotland. Next door is a hunny farm which is filled with interesting information on farming honey. They also sell their products on the farm.
Due to it's location the site is very quiet. It is a little open to the elements. Luckily the weekend we went was very sunny and warm. There is a field surrounding the site so if you suffer from hayfever I would make sure that you take some pills.
The grass was kept very neat (as is the rest of the site- the building that the owners live in is also a b&b) and the tent section is separated off from the caravan area.
The only downfall is the toilet block. The building is a large portacabin which contains one separated room. The room contains 1 toilet, 1 sink, 1 shower. Outside the room are the washing up facilities.
First thing on a morning there is a queue to use the shower/toilet and sometimes it can take up to an hour to get in.
If you can use your own bathroom facilities I would recommend the site. It's location is very handy for accessing both Scotland and the holy island area.
