Date of Visit: June 2010 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Jimmy1980 29 reviews from this member

 What a site! I was slightly concerned having read previous reviews about the busy road, river and lack of playground. None of these concerns were an issue.

On arrival we were welcomed by extremely welcoming and friendly owners. He took us to our pitch and assisted us in reversing - which is normally a tense moment between me and my wife!

The site is gorgeous, trees on one side of the site and a river running along the other. Although you are able to access the river there are flood defences and quite rough grass so our son never bothered going near the river even though we were pitched right next to it.

There is a gorgeous walk direct from the site into Jedburgh along the river. This was great with our 3 year old as it's not next to a road and meant he was free to explore. In the other direction there is a great little loop across the football ground that loops back to the campsite or into Jedburgh if you prefer.

The football pitch provides a great area for exercising our dog and there are plenty of dog waste bins both on site and on the walk to Jedburgh.

Jedburgh itself is a gorgeous little place with everything you could need. There is a large Co op and I can highly recommend A J Learmonth butchers for supplies for the BBQ!

There's a brand new childs play area in Jedburgh so the lack of an on site one was not an issue. I couldn't get a satellite signal due to the trees being just where Astra 2 is, luckily the freeview signal is strong as they have had the analogue switch so we had our telly, all through our omnidirectional aerial!

None of the pubs around Jedburgh look pretty welcoming to be honest! But then we did discover The Carters Rest, next to Jedburgh abbey - although we never had a drink here it did look rather nice with a good menu.

On site facilities are basic but well kept. They were always clean and although one morning the shower was a bit too cold to use this didn't seem an issue for the rest of the week. It was late morning and presumably all the other campers had used the water up!

All in all this is a great site. I will definitely re visit and the owners were very helpful.

 Like previous reviews, no major complaints or grumble about the site. As this was our first stay at a club site we got a bit more of an 'induction' than the regulars and that meant we didn't end up 'breaking any rules'.

Toilet and shower block was spotless with no complaints from OH. Tap water far too hot though and showers could have been a bit warmer.

However the site is just a bit too close to the A68 (75 yards or so). I guess caravans and motorhomes don't notice the noise and we were somewhat oblivious to it during the day but at night it's a noisy and busy road with nothing much in the way to block the sound of traffic.

Reviewer: Jane79 6 reviews from this member

 Came up here after a very wet weekend in Wales, the weather was a little better, but by the end of the week there was a flood warning, and we packed up and left early. Cannot praise the owners enough, very helpful & friendly couple. Refunded all our money for the nights we did not stay.

The campsite itself is small & quiet, which as 2 couples without children, it is great. A lot of caravaners stay over night as a stopover before heading into Scotland or down to England. There was a few people in tents including us. We have a large tent (7.5m x 5.5m), and this wasn’t a problem. Some sites don’t take tents this big.

The toilet block was one of the cleanest I’ve been in. It started to get a bit untidy in the morning (cleaned once a day about 11 ish), but nothing really worth mentioning. There are 5 toilets & 5 showers in both the ladies & gents, so there was never a queue. 3 washing up sinks, and a coin operated washer & dryer too.

It was a shame we had to leave early, and we would definitely plan to come up to this site again.

Reviewer: LolaRola 17 reviews from this member

 Visited for three nights of mostly dry but very windy weather. Very presentable flat site close to main road. The wardens were very helpful and welcoming: first class.

Toilet block very spacious and spotlessly clean, with plenty of hot water. All the usual facilities, as you would expect from a Club site.

Access to the town is ten minutes walk beside the river. Jedburgh offers a reasonable choice of pubs, shops and supermarkets, plus the magnificent abbey and castle. 'The Sunrise' offers extremely good Indian food for a very modest price - very highly recommended.

The site is sheltered in most directions and although there are hardstanding for 'vans, some of the grass was soft and muddy. Grit from the hardstandings is one of my pet hates. Also, it's very difficult to get pegs into the hardstandings.

 Our first visit to a Camping & Caravan club site and the wardens were extremely helpful and cheery. As we arrived nice and early to join friends on site there were quite a few pitches available but being new to caravanning the warden led us to a pitch that we could drive straight into without any tricky manoeuvring. Maybe the only comment I'd have would be about the gravel on the hard standing pitches which was small and gritty and did tend to carry into the van every time you entered.

Toilet/washing facilities were immaculate, site was nicely kept although it does sit on a through road to local playing pitches. Not a problem for us although at quieter times you could hear the regular thump, thump of balls being kicked just over the hedge.

Jedburgh is a nice town with decent pubs and a few restaurants which are within 10 - 15 minutes walking distance.

Would go back.

 Very nice,friendly site. The shower blocks are kept immaculate. The play area for children is away from pitches which means it would be difficult to watch your children from your unit but as a plus-other campers are not disturbed by noise,

although the football/rugby pitch is on the other side of the hedge-so you can hear all the shouting on training nights and from the matches.

The local shops and pubs are only 5 minute walk away including a hardware store in case you forget any camping gear! 


Date of Visit: May 2009 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Ollybeak 2 reviews from this member

 Friendly and peaceful site within walking distance of Jedburgh town centre, along a very nice riverside walk.

Both hardstanding and grass pitches were immaculately maintained.

The toilet block is spotless, clean & heated, more than big enough for the size of the site, with plenty of hot water.

The current site managers are extremely pleasant and helpful.

The motorhome service point was very well situated and designed.

The town of Jedburgh and surrounding area have a lot to offer, would also recommend a visit to Jedburgh Gaol, very interesting & free !.

Nearby Kelso has good easy parking for Motorhomes by riverside.

`Scottish Pride' cafe/restaurant on high street serves excellent Haggis meal, and butchers on high street provide excellent ready to heat meals.

 Spent a night here on our way home from visiting other parts of Scotland. It's an excellent little site with good facilities and staff. It's a useful site for a stop off as its right on the A68 England-Scotland road.

The town of Jedburgh is a ten minute walk down the river and has many decent pubs, as well as shops and supermarkets. Mary Queen of Scots house, The Town Jail and Jedburgh Abbey are the main visitor attractions in the town.

Reviewer: Heidi+Paul 9 reviews from this member

 Nice quiet campsite. Wildlife and child friendly with lists of recent sightings and colouring pages for the children.

Not a lot of space for tents but we weren't crammed in.

Facilities were locked for an hour each day for cleaning and it showed as they were beautifully kept large and faultless.

Nice village with lots to explore locally particularly the little villages.

Were quite a lot of 'rules' but nothing unreasonable and it obviously worked on this site.

Great for touring on the way back from Scotland.

Reviewer: CaltonMonument 6 reviews from this member

 This site has no entertainment facilities, and is therefore perhaps not very suitable for children. However, it was extremely peaceful, clean and friendly. We parked up opposite the reception in what seemed like a busy spot, but were not bothered by any noise or comings and goings.

The toilet block is spotless and cleaned thoroughly at the same time every day. It is also more than big enough for the size of the site. Hot water is plentiful. The current site managers are extremely pleasant and helpful. The motorhome service point was very well situated and designed. Both hardstanding and grass pitches were immaculately maintained. The site manager never stopped working on them while we were there.

The town of Jedburgh and surrounding area had more to offer than I had anticipated. There are fantastic walks of varying levels, very well signposted. There are also plenty of historic monuments dotted around the countryside to walk to. Harestanes Visitor Centre is very close and has lovely, easy woodland walks, some designed specifically for children, as well as a craft outlet. Jeburgh Castle Jail and the Abbey are both very impressive. One of the town's fish and chip shops, run by a German, has won prizes. Do not walk past The Cannon pub. Their Theakston's Best is outstanding and I have seldom felt so welcome in a local pub.

If you are looking for a friendly and peaceful site within walking distance of attractions, then this site is ideal. We could easily have spent another few days there.
