One of the best caravan parks in Scotland, Drummohr Caravan Park is a beautiful place with sea views in a stunning coastal location on the outskirts of Edinburgh.
Set in the secluded and peaceful grounds of an old monastery, this dog-friendly park is open all year round and has a range of excellent holiday accommodation available.
Choose from luxury lodges with hot tubs and quirky bothies to stylish glamping pods for hire or pitches for touring caravans, motorhomes and tents. Many offer great sea views out across the Firth of Forth and the North Sea.
For glamping in Edinburgh, Drummohr's unusual glamping pods offer a unique camping experience. There are two single beds in each of the Octolodge camping pods and a double bed in each of the Hexilodges. Take your own camping equipment and bedding, or hire a bedding pack for the Hexilodges. Each pod has a fridge, kettle, toaster, TV/DVD player and heating. You can have a barbecue beside your pod and set up a camping cooker outside, where picnic bench tables are dotted around on the hardstandings. You can either bring your own dishes and crockery or borrow them from the site (for a refundable deposit).
Hire a 'glamping bothy with toilet' if the lack of a loo is putting you off the wooden camping pods. They come with sprung mattresses, fridge, heater, kettle, toaster, microwave and TV/DVD and sleep up to four people in fixed single beds. There's an en-suite toilet and wash hand basin.
Hire a 'deluxe glamping bothy', which is aimed at couples and offers a double bed made up in deluxe bedding, two leather armchairs, bedside lamps and more. There's no toilet inside this bothy, but it is located next to the toilet block.
Then there's a 'deluxe glamping bothy plus' for hire, which is similar, but also gives you an en-suite toilet and washbasin and a choice of double or twin beds.
The luxury holiday lodges are modern and spacious with two or three bedrooms each, sleeping from one to six people. They have a bathroom with a bath and shower, as well as the master bedroom having an en-suite shower room. There's a lounge with a TV/DVD, and a kitchen with a cooker, fridge, freezer and dishwasher.
Motorhome and touring caravan pitches at Drummohr Caravan Park are generously spaced and separated by hedgerows, offering privacy for all guests, while hard standing pitches with electric hook up are available.
The camping area is all grass pitches, again with separated and secluded areas to provide guests with their own space during a stay at the site.
A wide range of facilities is available at the site, including water points, and chemical and grey waste disposal points across the park. The two amenities blocks feature toilets, showers, and a metered launderette.
For families, there is a children's outdoor playground with swings, a climbing frame and a sand pit, and there are also swimming pools and child-friendly activity centres not far away. The park has an on-site shop offering a small selection of local produce, a book exchange and a reception where you can hire a BBQ or fire bowl for hire.
Just outside Drummohr Caravan Park is an amazing golf course, Royal Musselburgh, which as well as offering a challenging round gives players stunning views across the largely unspoiled coastline.
Fishing and sailing enthusiasts will find many spots along the neighbouring coastal areas where they can indulge their passion. Fishing trips into the North Sea are regularly enjoyed by guests and are offered at numerous locations along the coast.
Preston Grange Mining Museum can also be reached via a short walk, while elsewhere along the East Lothian coast is Tantallon Castle, Bass Rock, John Muir Country Park and the beautiful town of Dunbar.
The park is just 20 minutes from the centre of Edinburgh. The city has something for everyone with Princes Street famous for its shopping and beautiful gardens, while just outside Edinburgh is the world-famous zoo. Edinburgh also has plenty of parks and leisure facilities for kids and the rest of the family to enjoy, while there’s also a wonderful golf course in the city and many more to be found close by. Arthur’s Seat, Edinburgh Castle, and Holyrood Palace are also found in the city and definitely places to visit during a stay at Drummohr Caravan Park.
Go walking during your holiday near Edinburgh and join the famous John Muir Way from numerous places close to the park. The trail starts in Dunbar and is a coast-to-coast route ending in Helensburgh. The route is accessible on foot, bicycle, or on horseback, and is a great way to see some stunning locations across Scotland. The whole route can be walked in seven days, so many guests do it in sections and even choose to drive to different locations to take in the various parts of the walk.
Drummohr is one of the best caravan parks in Edinburgh that's ideal for enjoying the sites and attractions of East Lothian and beyond. Please enquire today to find out more about holidays in Edinburgh.
