Seton Sands Holiday Village Reviews

I really enjoyed this. Good base for exploring Edinburgh. Lots to do on site. And the kids entertainment is really good and engaging.

I would definitely go back.

Great place kids enjoy it easy to travel into Edinburgh with Lothian buses recommend get day tickets as they can be used on all buses till 11pm

Love it here, I'm biased because we have a static caravan there but it has great links to Edinburgh and North Berwick.

Fine for a family holiday. Beach across the road. A tad expensive though.

Very! family orientated. Show club area, lacking in grown up entertainment. If you like bingo fine.
We were with the grandkids, they had a good time.

Great place when the weather is fine. Staff friendly and helpful. Nice grounds.

Never actually stayed there but according to taxi passengers its good.

Definitely 5star touring site and as for the site wardens Steve and Fiona they are absolutely brilliant can't do enough for you. Excellent Service from them both.

This is a great stop over point beginning or end of a holiday. Been up in the Highlands

Good facilities.. Great view... Very clean site.. Easy check in and lovely caravan would definately come again

A very, very nice caravan facility. Our caravan has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, as well as a kitchen and a terrace.

Kids loved it but make sure you have a fat wallet and stay away from the bandits no value there

Amazing beach, C especially for walking dogs. Make sure you check the tide tables though as there is very little beach at high tide

Really nice place, good amenities, staff are very friendly

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).

Fantastic park with lots to do. Beach is just a two minute walk over the road. You won't be disappointed.

Lovely place & a lot of beautiful places to visit nearby.

Ideal place for a short break , with plenty of activities to do for the kids .

Great place for a holiday and lots to do for the kids.

Fantastic resort with great fun for children. I particularly recommend it for families with children

A weeks holiday in the caravan at seton sands. FANTASTIC x

Views, near the seafront, and transport from the park.

Lovely holiday place, beach close by, nice walks, easy to get to Edinburgh.

Wonderful site very clean peaceful a joy to be there would recommend to everybody

I have no hesitation in giving the beautiful caravan, Priscilla, 5 stars. In fact, if there were 6 stars, I'd definitely give it that!
The layout of the caravan is very clever with an excellent use of space. The lounge is spacious with a long sofa providing plenty of seating and a very nice log effect fire. The single reclining leather chair with footstool is a touch of luxury!
The dining table extends so can be adapted to the number of people and the kitchen is of a very high standard and superbly equipped. It was great to see all the cutlery, cooking utensils, crockery and glasses all matching, 8 of everything and beautifully presented. No mis-matched, chipped plates - I've seen plenty of other accommodations not a patch on this!
The bedrooms are more than adequate and well-designed to provide wardrobes and shelves. And it was great to have 1.5 bathrooms, so two toilets.
Another excellent point about the caravan is that there is plenty of heating and hot water plus a very nice veranda. And all super-clean!
The site itself is lovely and the bus service is good. Just a point to mention is that your own bed linen and towels are required or you may be able to hire them from reception and that you may need to buy a card for some of the facilities such as swimming pool and entertainment.
In short, I'd go back in a flash!

Loved it 10mins down road where I stay great entertainment

Very peaceful and quiet Holiday Park went there last year after the lockdown got a very premium caravan very good stay there been there many times before would go again

Nice campsite kids really enjoyed it with the sea just across the road had a great time rock pooling

Work there good food staff always go extra mile for visitors

Lacking in entertainment. Staff forgot to supply bedding and we were missing a mattress which we contacted them about several times during the first day. Caravan was clean and had all the things you need however no internet is provided and signal on most networks isn't perfect. We left a day early

We used the touring pitch. I was a euro pitch so had all the facilities needed. The touring pitches are situated in a far corner of the site but it's still only a 5 minute walk to the main complex. The park was nice and clean and all the staff were very friendly. Only thing I would say is if you are scared of spiders be wary. I seemed to have lots of little spiders in me constantly, they seems to float around the park hanging on webs.

Very poor organisation

Travelled 250 miles and arrived for booking time but told to go away as caravan not ready for the home they stated.
Tried to use their restaurant telephoned to see if needed to book.informed it was gorst come first served

When arrived after long wait the first question asked was have you booked.
Total shambles would not reckomend this site to my worst enemy

Perfect base for a affordable family holiday, within close proximity to the City of Edinburgh, buses leave a few times an hour and run till late at night

Caravan was very nice had a gr8 time kids loved it the chippy was very nice black pudding supper 2 kid meals an a sausage supper very very nice well worth the money will b going back

Excellent break, staff very nice, shame not much to do due to covid pandemic. But its out there control definitely would recommend

It's was peaceful beautiful views clean Van site really clean just love it at Seton Park staff very friendly x

Great place for all ages my family love going and the staff are amazing

Great place great views bed very comfy just don't move or the bed moves with you well depends how big you are tbf

Seton sands caravan was lovely in the golf village ordered food from bar took to long to bring it didn't show football matches that we liked .

Have been going on a family break here for the last few years, have seen a massive difference like many others customers said the same. Where do we start we have ordered the same type of caravan but this time no heating ( We cant blame More

Service, cleanliness poor ,dog poo everywhere, This place doesn't deserve any stars it's the worst haven park I've ever been too . Very little staff behind the bar to serve people, I ordered chips and gets told it's an hour wait , the swimming pool doesn't look clean too, this whole place is revolting people should really think hard about coming here , then again from what I've seen of the kind of people that are here its giro valley...will never set foot in this camp again

Second time visiting will be going again kids loved it

Amazing caravan and clean park would recommend it highly

Fabulous weekend away in the touring area. Very supportive, helpful and friendly wardens who went the extra mile during our stay. Well done Having understanding staff made the difference.

Ups and downs

You cant win with parkdean
Thought Tummel valley was a bad location but at least the caravan was lovely .
By comparison this is a better location but caravan is the pits . Awful had to get an upgrade from the deluxe but the next one is just as bad . No nets at windows cars keep stopping opposite for bin so can see right in . Its in an extremely windy spot so its noisy . Door stuck in kitchen cant get plates out .No iron . Quilt cover ripped . You sink in bed to the floor mattress is awful . Nice birthday weekend !!!! Would not return .

Great for a family getaway with plenty of activities for children, right opposite the beach

Great place staff even helped push my van into its pitch very clean and tidy considering its peak season and cheap too.

OK plenty to do and location good for exploring the local area

very dissapointed that we came all the way from australia having just left haggerston castle and were told on arrival at 4pm there were no towels avaiable had to rush around to find somewhere to buy some ourselves were told when there were some would be told nothing for the whole stay

Just had a wonderful long weekend at Set on Sands, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Thank you all.

The area is beautiful and the Park facilities are good.

The park was nice and clean staff was friendly but found a pillow in wardrobe with dry blood rang to say about it they was their in 10 mins to change it

Nice and quite site, bus terminal outside of site. Great views of the forth

Travel out side the park can be a bit donating but everything inside the park Is well maintained if not a bit costly. Staff are very helpful 24 hours a day lost of night entertainments for kids and adults alike

well looked after, even if they had works on they still made sure we had a great time

Nice place with new like caravans... good customer service

Enjoyed 5 days there lots to do out and about very homely and relaxing

Anyone who knows British or British-run holiday parks on this scale can roughly imagine what to expect.
Huge premises with mostly fixed (rental) caravans, pool area, activities, bar / restaurant and much more. Overall occupancy declined at the end of August.
Tourer pitches (about 50) are set up a little bit outside. The area itself is very well laid out, but the facilities are below average. Behind the wooden cladding on the outside there are a few washing and toilet containers that were not particularly clean. Comfort - even if you don't really need it, isn't there anyway. Unless you are standing on shower stalls, where an airplane toilet appears to be spacious.
All this is available for 55, - Scottish pounds or about 60, - per night for 2 people. Well ...
If you are not put off by this: it is not wrong as a starting point for Edinburgh trips. The double-decker bus stop is in front of the square. You can travel to E'burg in about an hour for 1.70 (4.00 day ticket). Car is also possible: the Princes Exchange Car Park in Riego St. is relatively good and is still affordable (4-6 hours approx. 10, -)

lovely caravan park. situated near stunning coast line beaches. woodland.easy accesible by bus to edinburgh etc. portobello lovely beach house food lovely. berwick nice day out.we hired private caravan lovely to wake up watch squirells. only let down restaurant and shop. waited over 1hr food wasnt that good when it arrived. shop not well stocked however Lidl coop nearby. tesco in musselborough.
