 A bit of a trek from the A1. Cannot fault the site itself, big pitches, spotless facilities etc. Not handy if you don't want to drive, out in the sticks. Easy access to a lovely beach and a coastal path network. Plenty of dogs and kids on bikes and scooters on site as well. North Berwick is a lovely coastal town a ten minute drive from the site, with a fine array of shops and eateries. The chippy is well worth a visit. In the other direction, a pleasant drive takes you to Musselburgh which is worth a visit. Enjoyed our break in a lovely area but won't return to this particular site.

Had a great few days at site, really good for families as beach and large play park next to site, the site itself was really good and also as has a play park, also really good dog walk. The toilet block had lots of toilets, showers and washrooms and very clean at all times. North Berwick 3 miles from site and can walk to it via coastal path but village mile from site had shop and pub serving meals. The wardens were very good and would visit the site again.

Stayed here with my 3 year old son for 2 nights in October out with the school holidays so was pretty quiet.
As with all the Caravan club sites I've been to, the site and facilities were in pristine condition.
Excellent for kids, has a good sized gated play park which we were pitched next to. This was handy as my son could play whilst I set things up.
A 5 minute walk from the site there is a very large kids play area which is well kept, then a further 5 minute walk beyond that there is a very nice dog friendly sandy beach.
North Berwick is charming seaside town full of character and in no way cheap and tacky.
There is a swimming pool in north berwick which is quite cheap but it seems to be more of a sporting pool than a fun pool.
Will definitely go back to this site

This is a great site and although quite large has been arranged in separate areas surrounded by bushes to make it seem smaller. The facilities are top class and only a 10 mins walk to a lovely beach.
The site is quite remote though so take with you your food supplies.
We had a nice walk from the site to Dirlton where the Castle Inn provides good food with a large beer garden for we dog owners.
We will return to this very well run site.

The best thing about this site is the location. Although you cannot see the sea from the site, it is only a 5 minute walk to a beautiful beach which is mainly sandy with some rock pools.
The showers and loos were modern and clean, we didn't use any of the other facilities.
We cycled a 30 mile circuit from the site to East Linton / Haddington / Longniddry which was on quiet roads and cycle paths and was mainly level.

A return visit to this site that turned out to be shorter for me than I would have hoped.
Nothing to do with the site, I hasten to add. Having arrived on the Saturday, I ended up in hospital from the Monday-Saturday night having had to speak to the wardens first. My husband and son continued their stay, visiting me every day. At one point we thought I'd have to undergo an emergency op. At all times the wardens were fantastic with my husband and said that if they had to stay on they'd accommodate them some how. This was a huge relief to me as we were 4 hours from home. As it was the hospital got me stable enough to return home for my op.
Thank you to the wardens at the site for all their help. We will once again return to this beautiful place.
[oh and Edinburgh Royal Infirmary is a brilliant hospital if you are unfortunate enough to end up there!]

I booked this site because I wanted to visit the surrounding coastal area. The reviews on here were great, which was why I chose this site, however, I don't think the site was all that marvellous. I mean, it was OKAY, but nothing brilliant. It had friendly enough staff on reception and an adequate, large toilet block and a good enough kids' play area, but the site was not very pretty in itself. We were pitched next to a farmer's field.
What the other reviewers are actually raving about is that next to the site entrance (not very clearly marked which is which!) is a public car park (with a much nicer and more modern toilet block!) and which belongs to East Lothian Council. Next to this car park are beautiful woodlands. Set in the woods is a huge, fantastic children's play area and the woods lead out to the John Muir walk way which is a country walk parallel to the coast. And of course there is the coast itself, with a lovely sandy beach and many interesting rockpools when the tide is out. Even though it wasn't that warm and sunny and we had a bit of drizzly rain, my 5 year old son happily spent hours on the beach.
The site is also near East Links farm park and there's a swimming pool at nearby Gullane.
The other caravanners were friendly towards children and dogs, which was good. The children played around the site but all was quiet by about half past 9 at night, making for a peaceful sleep.
I think this site would be far too busy for me at peak times though - I went this weekend (mid May weekend) and it was quite busy even then.
I would definitely return to the area again, but perhaps to a different site next time.

We love this area. Yellowcraig bay with it's soft sand and the views to Fidra Island is stunningly beautiful and, as others have said, ideal for children and dogs. The site is as we have come to expect from the Caravan Club and the wardens helpful and friendly (although I truly still don't understand the logic behind not allowing a members' restaurant/cafe recommendation book). If you love nature and, even more, if you love golf, you are going to love this region. If the land isn't built on or being farmed then someone is playing golf on it!
Dirleton castle is definitely worth a visit.
North Berwick is a lovely, friendly town with a great beach. Drive from Dirleton in the other direction and you will find Gullane (we recommend Ramseys butchers)home of Muirfield Golf Club. In fact the whole coastal route is delightful.
If you want a good quality lunch then we recommend Merryhatton garden centre which you will find on the way to the Museum of Flight.
We will definitely visit again.

We stayed here July into August 2012, site was full and when we arrived on the Friday we did a full tour of the site to find a pitch. We were told to park central to the peg which we did, the van next to us was not central and at an angle, meaning their car was next to our van.
The site was full of families with lots of children, most of which had bikes or scooters, which some rode at speed and with no regard for others. Our son who is 5 was almost knocked over and I had to step aside on more than one occasion to avoid being hit, when driving through the site extra care was needed even at low speed.
We also had children playing ball games infront of the van, there is a park which our son used, but it seemed to be dominated by the older children.
The showers and toilets are clean and tidy, as normal for club sites and the site in general is well kept, staff are friendly but seemed very lax about rules.
The site is close to the beach which has good views and the sea is never far out, we took our kayak and went over to Fidra, the island is a bird sanctuary and houses the lighthouse, A short walk from the site is the village of Dirleton, (exit site turn left across car park and then left again onto the John Muir way) the ruined castle is well worth a visit, as is the small tea room in the village.
Edinburgh and Leith are not far to visit the castle or the Royal Yacht and a short drive in the other direction near Dunbar is East links family park, a great day our for young families.
North Berwick itself is a lovely little town and home to the Scotish seabird centre, you can also do boat trips to Fidra and Bass rock. All in all the location is great and there is plenty to do in the area. If you want a quiet site, then maybe it is best out of school holidays.
I liked the site, but it felt more like a commercial site than a club site, if this is the way the club is going I am not sure we will be renewing our membership next year.

Just spent another weekend at this lovely site. Absolutely no negatives, a credit to the wardens. Toilets immaculate as was park.
The set up of pitches is ideal, although a busy site, each bay only took about 6 caravans, so felt quite quiet.
Ideal location for dogs and children as the beach was only a 5 minute walk.
There is also a good playpark located in the forest en route to the beach, with a small playpark on site.
The reception stocked milk and rolls and you could order your paper every day.
Would recommend this site to anyone and we are going back next month.
