It's taken me a while, to some up my opinion on the Caravan site so let's get break it down into pros and cons with a summary. Pros: Entertainment, Shop, Launderette, Local beaches, Coop, Lidl and bakery nearby, Caravans are Clean, Caravans have most essentials (TV, Microwave and Heating), more such as Dishwasher if you pay for upgraded Caravans, Good deals if you are willing to wait. Arcade indoors, Heated indoor swimming pool which has lifeguards and is really clean, Small soft play area. A bar restaurant on site (quite pricey though), other children events ongoing such as Outside children's play area, Archery, pottery, dancing, swimming lessons, bike lessons, nature walks all usually free unless there is supplies required like pottery and crafts. The entertainment also has Bingo as well as children's disco so to say well packed place. There is a bus service out of the gates that can take you to Edinburgh and Edinburgh Zoo. Local taxi services too. Cons: No WiFi (away from the main complex) the mobile signal strength is hitty missy. The walls of the caravan are not well insulated so it doesn't stop the outside noises, staff availability around the complex can be at times quite sparse especially after 6pm. Gas hob and ovens can be quite scarry if not used to it. Seagulls dancing on the roof at 5am (yes it quite a noise). Children's Disco should be a little Earlier especially for under 10s. Soft play area should be monitored the restrictions of 12 and under was broken by teenagers who were rough housing each other which was not a good thing to encourage a 5 year old. The placement of families with special needs was not good (We specifically told the reception at the time of booking we need to be close to the main complex but were ignored even making our reasons why.) Cigarette butts around the Caravan, I know that guests are responsible for this, however it is a shame that some guests can be so inconsiderate. The air freshener used in the caravans can be quite overpowering. Lastly dangerous rubbish in the outside play area we found broken glass but we binned it to save others. In summary the site was great and would recommend,it is not a chav holiday (priced not cheap) but a reasonable priced family holiday especially a family of 5. My children really need enjoyed the facilities and that is the whole point of our holiday and the Entertainment crew did a splendid job (Thanks Girls).
