This is a lovely peaceful site. Adjacent to road but noise was not an issue. When we arrived, there were 4 vans already on site. Pam gave us a choice of where to pitch and there was plenty of space between all the vans. No problem getting level or putting up our awning. Lovely views over to Smailholme Tower and so much to do in the area, especially if you are into Castles, Abbeys and walking. Would not hesitate to return and would highly recommend!

Extremely well maintained CL with extensive views
CL is large sloping paddock. Easy access from the main road leads to gravel road into CL. Wide entrance so no access problems even for the largest outfits. Two level hardstandings and three sloping grass pitches. Slope is not too steep: vans can pitch across the slope with a ramp. We had an awning and didn’t have a problem. CL has a stock of wooden blocks for legs. Pitches well spaced. CL extremely well maintained: even the livestock fences are painted. Water/waste is at top of slope near entrance. Both toilet and grey waste at floor level so can use WasteMaster. Views on three sides with large hedge shielding from the road on the fourth side. We didn’t notice traffic. Distant views of the Cheviots 20 miles away. View = windy. Had some rain yet ground remained firm. Excellent CL. Made very welcome by Pam who when found out we were walking the Southern Upland Way offered us maps and guides of other local walks and cycle routes. We’d always chose this over the Club site in Melrose. We’re planning to return next year.
fantastic cl
We stayed for 6 nights fantastic we had no problem with awning and we went on the grass which was nice and short it is a very well cared for cl and we will be back thanks for a great stay.

A PLEASANT SITE
Booked in here for 2 nights when in transit from Scottish Highlands.
Easy to find but site slopes quite steeply making it hard to pitch level. We were not using an awning, fortunately, as the slope would have made erection difficult.
Weather was wet and wild whilst there but ground conditions remained good.
Pam made us welcome shortly after we arrived.
A Hidden Treasure
We have just returned from a pleasant week at Pamela Spinks CL. Usually when in the Borders we stay at the Club Site in Melrose, however we could not get a full week there due to the weekend being fully booked. This turned out to be a bonus as we had a most enjoyable time at the CL. The site is immaculate and very clean with lovely open views. Unless you book a hard standing pitch the grass pitches are sloping, however this did not turn out to be a major problem for us. When visiting the Borders in the future this will be our site of choice.

A gem of a site
Following the caravan club brochure instructions, it was slightly difficult to find but a phone call to the owner soon sorted any navigational problems. The welcome when we finally got there was also exceptional. What a lovely spot! The views are stunning. If you have dogs like we do then the walks are fantastic. So relaxing. Easy to get into Galashiels for shopping and so many places of interest to visit nearby. The park does have quite a slope but just take some time to work out the best option for you. There is TV reception and recycling too. This site cannot be faulted and we will be back - we just hope we can get in because others have obviously found its merits too! During the long weekend it was full every night. If ever we doubted cls were for us, then this has blown away any reservations.

Remember the fishing.
The lovely Pamela forgets to say the 100s of miles of some of the best wild brown trout fishing anywhere. For big rivers try the Tweed and Teviot. For small waters and burns there's the Ettrick, Lyne, Ale Kale, Bowmount, Leader and others all within half an hour. Grayling as well on most of them. Great salmon fishing and cheaper than you think. A brown trout fisher's heaven where a typical season ticket costs less than a day at an artificial fishery.
And Pamela will even supply kids to play with yours!

A sea of tranquillity
What a wonderful place for restful few days,a warm welcome, lovely views of the Border hills and an ideal base to explore the local area. The facilities are excellent and whilst the site is sloping a supply of blocks is available. We will be back even though we live in the Borders. Thank you
