Not a good start but a brilliant ending
First the bad!\We had read on a previous review if you wanted hard standing book a pitch with an awning space. We didn’t realise that still doesn’t guarantee you a hard standing pitch. Having booked on line there’s no way of knowing. We had not been before. When we arrived lateish on the Friday before the bank holiday we were told take any pitch with a white peg. After driving our large Motorhome around and around looking for hard standing I called the office to ask if there were any left. I was assured there were plenty and a list was rhymed off. Again no mention of not being hard standing. After driving around again by this time feeling like we wanted to just go home we clicked the pitches were all grassy. I got out went to ask and that’s the case. You can get hard standing... if there’s any left! We took a pitch 106 on grass. This site is not like other CMHC sites we have visited. So cramped. Definitely not enough room for a car awning and caravan on some of these pitches. We were lucky the people around us were lovely and parked their car on the wrong side,diagonally in the area that belonged to a different Motorhome. We’ve never been allowed to park wrong way around before. Like the previous reviewer we also saw some people having to park across the pitch as there wasn’t enough room. Never again we thought! But after we took our dog down to the beach we had changed our minds. The Good. The beach, stretches for miles in both directions. Gorgeous views. Lovely walking to North Berwick and to charming Dirleton with its beautiful castle. There is plenty for visitors in the surrounding areas. The John Muir way path runs from just outside the camp. It is a dogs idea of heaven. There’s a brilliant woodland park for kiddies as well. The little cul de sac area we were in on site was lovely full of different bird life. We had already booked to go back and are looking forward to it although we will hold our breath when choosing a pitch and cross fingers we have nice neighbours as we will no doubt be cuddled up very close with them! :)
