Location and wardens 10/10, value for money 4/10
Must be one of the best located club sites for its position just off the high street. Chose it for this reason to explore Melrose and surrounds. Melrose is a lovely town with excellent shops, especially baker and butcher, cafes, pubs, cultural sites and riverside walks. Abbotsford is well worth visiting to see the house and walk through the estate by the river. Warden was very helpful. There are negatives. £38.00 a night is very expensive for a site with basic facilities. Happy to be on a standard pitch as don’t require a services pitch but £38.00 for a patch of hard standing, outdated facilities and no wifi is a lot of money. Cls can provide this for a lot less. The site is noisy which you expect being by a popular park and tennis club but also noise on the site from inconsiderate users playing music whilst sitting outside.
I would maybe return for a night to revisit the lovely town but would also investigate local cls and then pay to park in town. Lack of free wifi is a big personal gripe. Most organisations and private sites now offer this.
