 I returned to this site which I have stayed at on numerous occasions. The site is kept neat and tidy with the grass in perfect condition. My only complaint is about the cost of having your pets stay with you. To charge more for a dog which can't use the facilities, than for an extra person which can is beyond belief. I have well behaved dogs and was charged an additional £7.00 per night for the right to have them with me. It will seriously make me think twice about returning to what is a lovely site.

First outing in touring caravan. Easy to find campsite offering opportunity to camp, wigwam, stay in a static caravan or use your campervan or touring caravan. Staff all very friendly, helpful and give a good impression of job satisfaction which makes for a pleasant stay. Site very clean, tidy and well laid out.
We pre-booked (essential as site got very busy) and then had our choice of pitch. Despite being very busy this had the benefit of showing it is quiet and seemingly secure at night. All pitches are well proportioned and have excellent views of the historic north Berwick town and harbour and especially, the Bass Rock.
Site has good tourist information, pay phones, laundry, ironing, sleeping bag hire and safe play areas for children of various ages. Showers, toilets and facilities for washing dishes/pots all clean and well maintained and plenty free hot water at constant temperature. Good sized tesco (with petrol station) only a short, easy 10 minute walk and the town another 5 mins. No effort at all walking in/out and you could stop off at the putting & tennis area which boasts a relaxing homely refreshment facility.
Excellent range of eateries and independent shops as well as beautiful clean beaches - no jelly fish - and a walled, clear,shallow sea pool ideal for children. Area benefits from a generally dry summer climate and if you go in August, then the site is ideally placed for walking to the town's Highland games. As you will have gathered, no complaints about this affordable family friendly site and will definitely return.

am almost reluctant to write this review as it may make this site even more popular and difficult to book.
This is one of the best camp sites we have visited. We always camp as a group and found it to our advantage that we were told to have a look round the site and pitch our tents where ever we liked in the tent section. After a good bit of deliberation, we chose a spot perfect for our group.
The site is ideal. Lots of toilet/shower blocks dotted about. A play area big enough to keep the kids occupied for an hour. Putting, pool, table tennis etc.
In the evening it was great to see the friendly staff carrying out hourly checks round the site.
The site shop is very basic but with a major supermarket (T) over the road, what more couldyou want.
The beach at North Berwick is just a five minute walk away, with no major roads to cross. Just a quick cut through the golf course. Very handy.
I think we will be back!

Spent a weekend in our tent on the site. Very enjoyable.
This is a well run site and the tent areas are perfect - flat grass pitches. You can choose where you pitch and the tent area of the site is divided into smaller areas by mature trees and bushes - making it very sheltered from winds.
They seem to accept large tents - we had a Vango Diablo 900 next to us with an extra awning and a large gazebo too ! But do check with the site before taking my word for it.
Good children's play areas. Beach only ten minutes off road walk. Tesco only 5 mins walk. Far enough out of town to be quiet but central enough to have everything close to hand.
Toilets clean but not perfect - cleaned twice each day when we were there, but interior layout of the blocks makes it hard for the cleaners to do a perfect job I suspect.
Extra marks for the security man and the site manager appearing at 2am to evict a noisy group of youngsters who were causing hassle to others.
All in all a very good site - we'll certainly go back.

We've been coming to this site for years, and always loved our vists.
There seems to have been several changes of manager over the last three years or so and as result there doesn't seem to be the same personal interest as before.
The views from the caravan part of the site are superb and there is plenty of space between units.
The self contained toilet and shower cubicles mean it can get quite busy at times. It was quite novel when the site first opened, but, although they have been refurbished recently, they get dirty very easily.
This year's prices have rocketed, and seem poor value for money.
Despite being a bit critical, we still love this site.
Tesco is only a few minutes walk away and the town of North Berwick about twenty minutes away via a footpath to the beach.
This corner of the lothians is one of the Scotland's best kept secrets.

Just returned from 2 night stay over May weekend at Tantallon.
What a beautiful location behind Glen golf course, overlooking picturesque bay of North Berwick. On arrival we were told just to select our own pitch and set up. There was quite a choice ranging from pleasantly level hard standing or grass with varying degrees of slope. Toilet / shower block clean and in good condition. Queue for showers though both mornings, quieter later in the day.
Very pleasant 10 minute wander along the Beach or stroll along the road to North Berwick with a good choice of eating establishments from the Chippy, Hotels or Fancy looking Bistro. Also regular rib boat trips around Bass Rock.
Small shop on site and nearby Tesco 5 mins walk towards North Berwick or Somerfield a bit futher. Tantallon Castle 30 min walk in the other direction. Would recommend this site to others and would return here.

Big site and will be booked out throughout the summer. Stunning views over the firth of forth.
Very windy when we were there, and exposed to the elements as you are on top of a hill. Best Steak house in town is on the main street, 'The Grange' served the best fillet steak I have ever tasted.
Local pubs good and locals very friendly. Will be spending a few more nights on this site this year.

First outing for us in our new tent, Wynnster Buzzard 4. North Berwick is only just over an hours drive for us and the weather forecast was good so off we went.
We pitched down at the bottom of the camping field nicely screened by trees. Site was very busy but we didn't feel like we were on top of each other.
Toilet block was clean but could do with a bit of sprucing up.
We had a lovely weekend here and would definitely go back.

What a beautiful place to visit and this campsite is the perfect base to visit it from. A clean, tidy campsite with all the features needed for a week camping. It has a family atmosphere where children and families were made welcome but respect and common sense expected i. E. Reasonable curfew and noise levels around 9:00pm most families were quiet and respectful of others with younger families. They have freezer facility for ice packs and a small games room and play area.
The walk from the campsite to beach and town is across a golf course and well signposted although not for the feint hearted as it has a 'few' steps down! The view is breath taking over North Berwick and when into the town plenty to do. We made use of the train station to take a trip to Edinburgh and the zoo but with the various shops, cafes, beach, bird centre and boat trips to the law you needn't venture out of North Berwick!

Our first outing with a caravan!
We arrived late and I checked on my mobile and we were told to make a home for ourselves and come & pay in the morning. I had previously emailed to book & was told to just turn up so after perusing the site carefully we found a big enough space to attempt to reverse and set to. A lovely couple popped out to chat & Colin helped my DH whilst his OH helped me toilet my dogs. We chatted about the site & she explained about the toilets (cleaning etc) and together they made us feel really welcome.
Our ptch turned out to have fantastic views and our wee awning went up a dream. We had a later night than usual with our BBQ and slept on until almost 11am.
We took our rubbish up after whilst visiting the spotless toilets/showers and found lots of bins but no separation for a 'blue bin'. Elsan was straightforward. We went to pay for our pitch and was told if we hadn't already booked we would have been turned away as so busy. Despite this we were without a neighbour for the following night.
North Berwick was a nice walk away right along the beach. We loved both and were sorry we hadn't found this gem so close to home when our children were younger. We enjoyed lunch in a beer garden where our westies were welcomed with iced water.
A visit to the nearby golf club was also enjoyed over the weekend. My goodness. Our welcome was fantastic and it was so smart! I was glad I had parted with my shorts and we enjoyed a couple of drinks before returning to a new wee home.
We will be back!

Very good pitch area large, good level grass area and able to pitch where ever. 2 x ad and 2 ch in 6 man tent cost £27.00 which I thought pricey for site. Every one seemed to be spaced out enough to allow a good area between tents. Toilets are plentiful with two showers in each block constant hot water and free that's the good points bad points shower screen stuck to you as the shower area so small and drying area very small. No plugs for personnel hairdryers. Sink area not very clean. Now I am a fussy camper and would not survive in the wild so take my comments as you will. Childrens play area very good and kept my 2 (10 & 11) amused. Area perfect to explore Berwick and Tantallon caste well worth a visit as is Dunbar. Staff on reception very friendly and helpful 10/10 for the girl on the desk.

We booked 2 pitches well in advance and paid our deposits. On our arrival the office was closed and our chosen pitches were occupied however we managed to get another 2 spaces together but unfortunately without the views so were a bit dissapointed. However we still had a lovely holiday at this site, we stayed for 3 nights the boys aged 11 & 13 found plenty to keep them occupied. The play park catered for their age group too and they played pool in the games room. Toilets were good & modern and always spotless despite only 3 toilets for the size of the site never had to wait. The views from the site are amazing the lovely beach is a short walk away. We plan to go back for a week in July.

Nice & clean facilites, which are cleaned daily, with level grass pitches which are sheldered by trees. A short walk through the golf course, for stunning views of the forth.
The only slight negative is it is close to the road, but this is has a small fence, with grass embankment & trees. The local tesco is only 1/2 a mile away. I will definitly be visiting again.

I have been coming to North Berwick for over 30 years, it is a gorgeous town with glorious beaches. Some lovely shops in and around North Berwick, it is also well positioned for train trips to Edinburgh, a visit to the Zoo is definitely recommended and a trip on the Sula II around the Bass rock is a must.
We usually rent a beach front holiday flat earlier in the summer, but fancied an extra trip up to North Berwick so opted to stay at the tantallon.
Security problems: The first night we were here the neighbouring caravan (unoccupied, seasonal pitch) was broken into and TV etc was stolen. When I gave the police my statement I found out that this had happened numerous times over the season on this site. The cctv doesn't cover most of the caravan field so the offenders were not detected.
Although cleaners were seen going into the toilet blocks daily, I still went out and bought a pair of flip-flops to shower in as the showers do not look clean at all - black grime and mould that looks years old around the shower and bottom of tiles etc, and rotten goodeness-knows-what on the underside of the plastic shower mats that didn't look like they had ever seen a cleaning cloth (I wasn't inspecting - you have to pick them up and hang on a hook when finished!)
Gripes out of the way, the site is well positioned with the beach only a short walk away (either through the golf course or down lots of steps so be aware this way is not buggy friendly) with fantastic views from some pitches. A lovely play park for the children, a games room, laundry, a well stocked shop for essentials and little pitch and put green all part of the facilities. Really close to a large tesco so ideal for stocking up.
