Yellowcraig Club Campsite is an attractive location with several pitching areas separated by grass banking, shrubs and roses - a splendid choice for family holidays with acres of flat golden sands and rock pools nearby. Nature lovers visiting this campsite will appreciate the birds and wildlife that are found in abundance amongst the sweeping dunes. The Millennium Commission funded Scottish Seabird Centre at North Berwick uses remote controlled cameras to monitor the wellbeing of Scotland's seabirds and offers a spectacular Gannet Experience sound and light show.
Located within easy reach from Yellowcraig Club Campsite, the promontory harbour affords exceptional views of the Bass Rock and other islands. Nearby East Lothian combines convenient access to 'Auld Reekie' with its many charming villages of pantiled cottages. The site boasts a coastline of lovely sandy bays and rocky headlands to feast the eyes on. The site also provides access to the John Muir Way, a coast to coast long distance walking path that stretches right across Scotland.
There are also loads of sporting activities available in the area, including water-skiing, sailing, windsurfing and no less than nineteen golf courses. The nearby National Museum of Flight is a fun and informative day out for all ages. The museum also hosts air shows and other attractions such as the Wartime Experience and the chance to enjoy a helicopter flight. Award-winning, family run The Castle Inn is just a short walk from the site and offers a bar & bistro, restaurant, plus golf and other attractions.

Perfect location
Yellowcraig is the perfect location. It’s only a short walk to a lovely stretch of beach and has easy access to North Berwick. We have been coming to Yellowcraig for years and it is still our favourite site.

Welcoming staff and lovely location
Site staff are very welcoming and helpful, and the site is in a great location with a very short walk to a beautiful beach. Only downside is WiFi availability which is non existent, but EE mobile network just about works.

However like many CAMC sites the toilets and showers block however clean they are, are now in desperate need of modernising and upgrading. Don’t think they’ve been touched since the 90s! Rusted shower fittings are not a good... Show more
