Hi,

I'm hoping someone on here can help me remember the name of a camp site in East Lothian. We visited it quite a few years ago and at the time we thought it would be a good place to stay if we ever had kids. Well the kid is here but my memory hasn't lasted!!

So here are the clues

- I'm positive it is in east Lothian - somewhere between Dunbar and Berwick I think.
- think it was down a steep hill
-was almost right on the beach
-had a small stream/river flowing through the middle of the site and you had to go over a little bridge to get to the touring area.
-I think it had bar/restaurant in quite a big building.

Anyone got any ideas??

Thanks in advance

Gavin

Hi

was it Thorntonloch? just down from Torness.
We've never stayed here but have looked at it in the past. It's down a hill and right on the beach and looks lovely. http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=9084

Only other one I can think of is Pease Bay, but I think that only does statics now. It's down a hill and has quite a large entertainment complex.

Hope this helps!

I don't think it was thortonloch. It may have been pease bay though. Will need to take a drive down that way to see if that is it.
Thanks

Thanks folks.

With the help of Google street view I can see that it was Pease Bay I was thinking off.  Shame it changed to statics only.  Our own fault for leaving it so many years after first seeing it

Although not the site you were on about, when I first read your posting, it reminded me of a site I was on some year back HERE.

I think this one might suit you and it is not far from you.
