Any suggestions for stops that we can access the city from paid or WC ?
 
I was in the city a few years back to see Runrig play, if going through at night make sure you have a tail gunner on duty. :eek: 😂😂😂
 
If it’s for a weekend break Mortonhall caravan site not the cheapest but it’s always a favourite of mine for visiting the city good bus links and some nice walks.

Mortonhall, Edinburgh - Meadowhead Caravan & Camping Parks

Only 4 miles from the heart of Edinburgh, this premier park is located in acres of country estate, combining leafy green parkland with bustling city attractions. With superb transport links in every direction, getting here couldn’t be easier.

Used site a number of times, cost of bus into Edinburgh very cheap.
 
Mortonhall is nice and there’s a site at the other side of town at Silverknowes if you want to be near the sea.
 
How far? Would a town with public transport to Edinburgh be acceptable?
 
We have stayed here through the day but there were a few vans full timers staying at night
Marine Drive
EH4 5ES Edinburgh
 
Free parking in the Grange area. Oswald road. Seen a few vans parking there during the festival.

City centre parking zone is not massive
Royal park terrace is a stroll into town . Preston field , Grange etc .
Portobello , Joppa . Not very scenic but check out the park and rides
Edinburgh has a great bus service .
If you can be bothered come into town after 6.30 and leave in the morning
PM if you need more information
 
I think it might be a little more than £8, I reckon about £14 unless you have a rail pass?

Anyway, follow the signs for the leisure centre but don’t go into their car park at the mini roundabout, just go on another few metres and you will see the car park. PM me when you are coming and I’ll say hi if I’m passing when I’m out with the little dog.
 
Oh lovely we will I will message you now so I remember who when we get there :)

If you are looking for a restaurant, we stayed at Burntisland last weekend and had a fantastic meal at The Sands Hotel. It’s about a 10 minute walk from the leisure centre.

If you are looking for other places to stay within easy reach of Edinburgh, Linlithgow is about 20 minutes by train and it’s a lovely town with an ancient palace by the loch. There is a small Caravan site at Lochmill Farm or you may be able to park in one of the Lochside carparks.

It might be too far out but Burntisland has a lovely monobloc car park next to the beach, approx 40 minutes on the train into Edinburgh.
