 Lovely clean and well cared for site, as stated its a very short walk from town, which has all you need, bakers, butchers, pubs, hotels, eating places. We went to the Italian Restaurant which is situated at the top end of town in the old Railway Station (Waverley Line) it was good value and excellent quality. Wish it was a little closer to us for weekends, will defo call again.

Usual high standards provided by Caravan Club with regards to the site and showers. Site full sign out on arrival but had booked some months before.
Five minute walk and you are in the town which is pleasant with plenty of eating places and food shops. Agree with the other comments about the very good Butchers where I spent over £35 in one day just a shame the Butcher was void of any customer skills and always appeared to be doing me a favour serving me. Could it be the site is providing too good a living for him.
Anyway nice place for a stop over.

What another fantastic site, we had a choice of pitch. The site was tucked away next to playing fields so we didnt find it the first time. Its passed the garage, first left.
It was a 5 minute walk into the town centre, where there is 2 excellent butchers and a veggie shop, plus other shops.
We bought the tastiest stawberries and raspberries we've ever had, and very resonably priced.
We took the dog with us for our 2 night break so its very handy when the local pubs allow you to take your dog inside, which was just what the Kings Arms allowed us to do.
The people of Melrose are very friendly, what lovely people. The dog was even spoilt in the pub, as he was given dog biscuits whilst we were enjoying the local ales. The whole area is very picturesque and to top it all there is a fantastic abbey right in the town centre, and the river Tweed is right on your doorstep. We will definitely be back again.

Excellent well positioned site sitting in the village itself. The usual high standard we have come to expect on a CC site. The cycling, walking & dog walks were superb. The local pub 'The Kings Arms ' welcomes children and pets. They also do lovely food at reasonable prices.
One down side. I felt at this site we were ripped off by the CC club. I'll explain.We were on a fully serviced pitch.
1. Now at home all garden hoses are fitted with a female and your tap has the male. Well guess what at this site it's the opposite. BUT surprise surprise they sell double male fittings in the site shop.
2. In the information booth there was a map supplied by the local vets showing all the local dog walks. Now this booth was full of leaflets for all the local attractions but above this map it said available from the site office. So we duly went into the office and requested one only to be told by the warden we must make a donation into the charity box before we can get a map. Now I don't grudge the donation but I was angry at being conned/dictated into having to donate to a cause wether I wanted to or not
These negative points did not spoil our break but I am upset at the tactics used by the CC to make money.

Arrived just after 5pm - to 'Site Full' sign - rang bell to be told we were lucky someone had just this minute cancelled - told we should have booked as magazines clearly show booking required. Site spotless immaculately clean and well kept. However, we did notice the 'Site Full' sign stayed up permanently for days - even though a few empty pitches.

Good on site facilities, clean and warm with excellent showers. Helpful and attentive staff. This is a flat site, across the road from the Melrose RFC ground. We visited for the rugby 7's 125th celebrations and although the town was taken over for most of the weekend there was an excellent ambience in the locale with well behaved young and old. The campsite remained a haven of tranquility throughout. Good shops in Melrose with excellent quality butchery in particular. There is alternative shopping in Galashiels approximately 4 miles away with large Asda and Tesco. Excellent walking area with many routes to choose from. Well worth a visit is Abbotsford House (Sir Walter Scott). Although TV reception poor the wardens will rent out a cable for hook up. Several caravans did have satellite systems which appeared to work well.

Visited this site for 2 nights over new year. This site is actually in Melrose itself - the town is really literally a stones throw away, but it is still a nice quiet site. Melrose is a lovely little town with very friendly people. The site itself is a small site with very friendly wardens and lives up to the usual Caravan Club standards (spotless toilets, nice and warm etc.) We really enjoyed our stay here and Melrose had a 'gathering' in the town square at midnight to see in the new year with fireworks etc.
The Kings Arms was our favourite pub - a warm friendly atmosphere and dog friendly.
There are some nice walks along the river which is just across the road and Melrose Abbey is just around the corner.
We would definitely return here in the future.

Have visited this site twice. Lovely setting in beautiful border town.Plenty of local shops,hotels,bakers and butchers all within five minute walk from site.
Facilities are spotless and pitches are hard-stand and generous. Toilets are spotless. Good bus service to other towns. A must for a relaxing visit.
P.S. King Robert Bruce'sHeart buried in Melrose Abbey!

2nd time here and highly recommend it. Excellent playpark next door for kids, tennis club also (public welcome). Right in middle of town. 2 minute walk to shops. Great base for touring around. Pitches flat and easy to get pegs in. No nail gun required! Usual high standard of caravan club. Quite but kids welcome.
