Why stay here ...
Springlee is situated in the heart of the Scottish Borders in a rural location on a small working farm surrounded by stunning views of the countryside and rolling hills. The 1 acre site is sloping with a mixture of lawned and hardstanding pitches all with electric hook-ups and space for awnings etc. There is a public footpath/track which runs adjacent to the site which is suitable for dog walkers.
Springlee is an ideal base for exploring the central Borders and beyond. The towns of Melrose, Galashiels, Kelso and Jedburgh are all within easy reach offering cafes, galleries, restaurants, artisian shopping, local produce and supermarkets.
On our doorstep is Smailholm Tower, Scotts View one of Sir Walter Scott's favourite views of the Eildon Hills and a short drive to Abbottsford House and Visitor Centre his ancestrol home, Dryburgh Abbey and the River Tweed.

Well spaced pitches, good views, good for independent types
Just finished a 9 night stay at this site. Lovely setting, great views and well kept (although grass clippings not collected so you track them in to awning and collect them wheeling water barrels over grass). Not sure why there's a 3 night minimum stay as there were empty pitches... Show more

Minimum nights stay applies
Having read reviews and decided to book last minute there is a 3 night minimum stay. Hopefully next time I'm in the area I can try this site with good reviews.

We originally booked for 2 nights - but in the end extended it to 4 as the day after we arrived it rained constantly. Pam informed us when we booked that the price was £18pn - and that each pitch had an allocation of 10 KwH of electricity per day,... Show more

Excellent CL site with lovely views
Stayed 8 nights at this lovely well kept site. Warm welcome from owner Pam. Lovely views over the countryside. We were 5th unit to arrive on the day we travelled and had to pitch on quite a slope but managed to finally get level. Very good chemical disposal and recycling bins.... Show more

Excellent Base For Exploring the Borders
Having dogs, we usually base our choice of CLs on those which have a decent dog walk direct from site. This was ideal in that there is a farm track right next to the site which was rarely used by vehicles so was great for walking the dogs. ... Show more
