 Little site in the centre of Melrose so handy for shops, pubs, walks etc. Dishwashing area and toilets as clean as you expect from the Caravan Club. The owners were nice and the site ideal, great for tents as well as vans. Tent area closed during our visit but level and spacious. Good choice of eateries and half a dozen places to get a pint. All in all would recommend a visit.

Melrose Gibson Park is a nice site in a great location for the town. The facilities are really clean, tidy and warm.
This site is not typical to the type of site that we like. Despite this it is a friendly site with a nice little dog walk and friendly wardens. ( this is their first contract as wardens )
Melrose itself has some nice shops and nice restaurants. We went for dinner to Burts Hotel which had great food and allowed us to take our dogs.
I would recommend this site to anyone wishing to visit the area.

We have just returned from a week end at this gem of a site. It was very clean & tidy & the pitches were a good size. I had read the reviews before booking & have to agree that is perfectly situated to visit the local shops & Melrose Abbey, although we did not use it, the bus service to surrounding areas seems to be very efficient, allowing you to explore further afield. Everyone we met be it on site or shop assistants were so very friendly. The review I read before booking was spot on when he said that Melrose caters very well for Coeliacs ( gluten free )The Kings arms made me a lovely GF meal, I would certainly recommend them. Also the small baker shop called ' Maid by Marion ' has GF cakes & can also make them to order if staying longer. There was a butcher that supplied GF as well. We will definitely return to this site & will recommend it to friends & family.

Not a lot to add to the previous reviews.
Its been a few years since our last visit to Gibson Park and not a lot has changed, still as good as ever.
Everything is kept tidy and usable, toilets are spotless. Didn't need to queue for showers and site was full but still quiet if that makes sense.
Melrose is a great wee town, shops, bars and restaurants all you need and as mentioned in another post a very good butchers just past the garage.
Have to say the geordie couple (wardens/stand-in not sure) who were round cleaning the exterior of the hookup points were a font of knowledge about Melrose and very nice to speak to. A big thanks to them.
We had our 6yr old grandaughter with us this trip and she enjoyed the large playpark just to the right of the park entrance.
We just love this site and the town/area.
Further afield you have Galashiels, Hawick, Jedburgh etc all have something to offer.

Just back from a long weekend here and absolutely loved it. Very clean site, really peaceful, park next door for the kids, shops a short walk away, and the brilliant weather made it really special.
The shower blocks were spotless, and the wardens are lovely, really helpful and friendly.
I cant praise Gibson park enough, its a cracking site in a stunning location and a credit to the club and the wardens.
Cant wait to go back.

A great site for staying at if your in a motor home, it's right on the doorstep of the town.
Also very handy for touring in the Borders. Have visited many times and we are never disappointed with the welcome we receive from the Wardens.
Very clean showers and a well maintained site. The local pubs are very friendly to the tourists and the local shops a welcome change from the 'normal high street'

I really cannot add much regarding the site as it maintains the excellent standards as previously stated.
It is however worth a mentioning the town and facilities. The butchers shop about 200 yards from the site supplies meat of the highest standard but more importantly it supplies ready meals in a variety of nationalities and I can thoroughily recommend them. These are ideal for us 'transients'. The bakery a few doors away has a huge variety of breads etc.
There are numerous cafes and restaurants (some a bit pricey) in the town.
Bus services are available from outside the site to almost anywhere in the borders ie. Berwick and Edinburgh and all points in between.

Nothing more to add to my review - previous reviews have said it all. We have had a fab week in a lovely quaint town with plenty of places to walk, relax, eat and drink.
The most important comment I would like to add is the helpfulness and friendliness of Ian and Teresa, relief wardens -they were outstanding - so friendly, helpful, warm, cheery and couldn't do enough for you.
Nice to see that Melrose has managed to maintain itself as a small town which has successful small businesses and not been overtaken by the usualy supermarkets.
Looking at previous reviews I think we may try to book up for New Year as I can imagine this town coming alive. Cant wait for our next visit.
I almost don't want to review this site so that people don't find out about it!

Stayed here for two nights can see why its always busy. Great clean site a 2 min walk and your in the town. Had a walk round the shops only shop I didn't see was the candle stick maker. Had lunch in the ship inn it let us in with the dog. The dog walk on site was a bit muddy. Sat and sun morn you can watch kids playing football and rugby or you can watch melrose play rugby. The wardens nice and always busy about the site. Cant wait to go back.

As always this site was busy and easy to see why when its so well kept and literally in the village. We did notice the 'Site Full' remained up at all times - despite there being 4-5 pitches empty every night?
All facilities are normal high CC standards. Good sized hardstanding pitches with grass between and some hedging. To the left the pitches back onto the gardens of local houses and are a little overlooked. To the right more open but the school is there so a little noise in the day from playgrounds and in the evenings from the playing fields. The best pitches are at the top of the site or in the middle if you want quiet and privacy.
Melrose is wonderful. Plenty to do with the Abbey, several antique and gift shops to browse in, a number of hotels and so much gorgeous food to buy from the butchers and bakers in town.
Several good walks and cycle rides in the area. A walk along the Tweed is a must and less than 2 miles of easy cycle or walk takes you to the restored Leaderfoot viaduct - incredible structure.
Hard to fault this site perfect for the immediate area but a great base for exploring further into the Borders.
