Question Any decent caravan parks on East Coast??

A friend is thinking about buying a static caravan on the east coast of Scotland, and is wanting to see what options are available.

Prerequisites :

- At least 2 bed rooms (preferably 3)
- Near a beach (preferably with sea view)
- No more than 90 mins from Edinburgh, ideally around an hour
- Less than £15k


Anyone know of anywhere matching these ? Already on the shortlist is Pease Bay and Coldingham, but does any one know of anywhere else ?

Thanks !

Dave,

you might want to try Thurston Manor near Dunbar. I've stayed a few times and it was a pretty high standard, good facilities (Indoor pool, gymn, bar restaurant etc). Owned by the same people who have Pease Bay I believe. About 2 miles from the beach though....

Stephen,
Yes - its www.thurstonmanor.co.uk

My outlaws have a tourer pitched there for the season... I'd pay good money for you to take the scoob down and rattle their windaes

Wink St.Andrews

Not sure of any names etc but if I were you i`d be thinking of St.Andrews. I`m sure there are a few decent sites there and you`ve got a few really nice beaches and is only about an hour from Edinburgh. You can also play golf with a heap of yank ***** wearing +4`s!!!.

Thorntonloch, quite near Dunbar overlooks a very quiet and nice beach.

Excellent quiet site.

Brian.
