About Gibson Park Caravan and Motorhome Club Site
Gibson Park sits just outside Melrose, making it an excellent base for exploring the Scottish Borders. The site is praised for its spotless facilities – shower blocks are kept immaculately clean and there's always plenty of hot water. Staff here are genuinely helpful, and the location strikes a nice balance: close enough to walk into town for shops and restaurants, yet peaceful enough to feel like a proper escape.
The on-site café saves you a trip when you don't fancy cooking, and nearby fishing spots appeal to anglers. Note that dogs aren't permitted, so it's worth checking that suits your travel plans before booking.

Situated right in the heart of Melrose, this is a smaller site that was always busy. Directly opposite the rugby club its important that you follow the directions on the club website/handbook. The route through the town centre is narrow and could be tricky if you meet something coming the other way. Showers were spotlessly clean, it's a coded entry, which the friendly wardens will give you upon arrival. The bollards have a TV hook up, which we didn't discover until almost the end of our holiday. There is a Co-Op store just yards away from the entrance and some lovely shops along the high street. We can heartily recommend The Ship Inn for food, club members get a discount on food. The Roman museum is really interesting and well laid out. The ruined Abbey is also worth a visit. The nearby gardens weren't at the best as we visited in early March, I'm sure they'll be better later in the year. Mary Queen of Scots house is in nearby Jedburgh, we really enjoyed visiting. Unfortunately the jail wasn't open until April, Edinburgh is about an hour away, use the park and ride sites to avoid the extortionate parking charges. If you are taking your car into the city, check that your vehicle meets the low emission requirements. A great site for exploring the Scottish borders.
