Linwater Caravan park is a beautiful family run park located to the West of Edinburgh that provides top quality self catering and camping accommodation all year round.
Its location means you can enjoy central Scotland from one base reaching places like the world famous Kelpies, Linlithgow Palace, Forth Bridges and iconic Edinburgh Castle within an hour.
The site is located 4 miles from Ingliston Park and Ride for regular trams to Edinburgh; 2 miles from Kirknewton train station for direct trains to Glasgow and three miles from the major M8/M9 interchange for road access to the North and West of Scotland.
There are 60 large touring pitches with 16 Amp Electric hookups and taps; self catering luxury lodges with bright open plan living space and budget friendly modern static caravans, all less than three years old. For the campers you will find an immaculately presented amenity block with electric showers, toilets, privacy wash cubicles and a small launderette. There is a heated indoor campers kitchen with pot wash area, cookers, microwave and TV as well as takeaway menus for on site delivery and a book/game/DVD library.
When you arrive you will be welcomed by our friendly team in the reception where you will find lots of tourist information and a small grocery store, perfect for those little essentials.
Centrally located on the park is the children's play area which has plenty of space for the kids to wind off steam. There is also a dog walk which provides access to the many walking and cycle routes surrounding the local Almondell Country Park and Union Canal.

The Campsite had everything we needed. A very nice location and friendly staff. Would definitely come again!
the site was nicely laid out and easy to find. The staff were very helpful, especially when some muppet parked on my pitch! Id checked before going out whether i needed to mark my pitch, and was told no. However, returned later in the day to find someone had parked on my pitch. Spent time searching for staff, who then spent an age trying to track down the owner. Despite having "written" pitch details on his dashboard, he'd decided he liked my pitch better !! they had words, and offered to move him, but as i only had one more night i moved to another pitch. I also had words, given the inconvenience of finding staff (i didnt want to do it to someone else). However, the facilities on this site are very poor. Dated and damaged, and the showers were the worst ive ever used - i got scalded then frozen - just dribbled water. there were also open top sanitary bins - yuk! The proximity to the airport didnt bother me - but that did !!!!Ive given an average score given staff friendliness.
No issues at all other than showers need sorting as no temperature control and no water flow pressure. No other issues.
Great site. Great pitches. Electric showers could do with an upgrade but that said the site is a favourite
The park was amazing. The personnel was so helpful when we were setting up our caravan. The young man walked us through what we needed to do and make sure that we were set up and comfortable. We enjoyed it so much that we booked it for her last night there Knowing that the facilities had amenities that we needed to prepare for our trip home. I would recommend this park to anyone needing to stay a week or a day. Thank you for making our stay in Scotland so much more enjoyable.
Lovely neat campsite with friendly helpful staff. Facilities were very good, especially big communal kitchen. The little shop has most necessary things. The walk by the leat is nice with good views and leads to the acqueduct, great for a dog walk. Enjoyed our brief stay.Access is a bit round the houses but worth the trip.
Clean, nice, quite. Perfect place between Édimbourg and Stirling
Staff friendliness and being helpful
This medium sized site is situated in the countryside within easy reach of motorways. The site is well laid out, with hard standing and grass pitches. It has some static caravans and lodges which are separate from the touring site. Amenities are good, toilet block is immaculate and well heated. There is a well stocked shop on site. We were very impressed by the welcome and the information available in the communal kitchen/inside dining area, which included several carry out options from restaurants that would deliver to the site. Also impressive was the solar farm and the chickens which greeted you in the drive into the site. The site is not well lit at night so bring a torch. Dog walks from the site are excellent, although the drop down into the valley is quite steep, there is a good flat area first. Only negative was there is only one washing machine and one tumble dryer and we had difficulty getting a free slot and the site was quiet when we were there. Only a minor problem.
Great site with friendly, helpful staff and fantastic facilities!
