We absolutely loved our three day break at Blackadder. We wanted to take our in-laws on a last minute short break. We love to pitch up anywhere in our motorhome but we couldn't expect our in-laws to sleep in the motorhome so I looked for a caravan park that offered statics for hire which was no more than 90minutes away from home. Blackadder suited us perfectly and manager/owner Linda could not have been more helpful in organising the break for us. The static caravan was honestly like a home from home long gone are the days of cold, draughty static vans. This had a wonderful fitted kitchen, family shower room and even the main bedroom had a small dressing area and ensuite. All double glazed and residential insulation ensured the in laws had a warm and comfortable stay. Superb. We all loved them so much we may look at buying one. The site was very peaceful and quiet (again a bonus for us) and had the river Blackadder running through the middle-the static lounge window overlooked the river so we saw plenty of ducks and herons but alas not the otter which is occasionally spotted. Greenlaw is just a 10minute easy stroll where you'll find a butchers, a premier shop and the Blackadder Pub and Restaurant. We'll definitely be back as the site was just what we needed and very reasonably price. Thank you Linda and your team for 3 wonderful days.

A well kept site with a river running through , only downside is that the touring pitches are somewhat surrounded by static caravans and makes it not feel as private as other sites. The touring facilities are very good and the site staff are helpful. The village of Greenlaw does not have much in the way of either shops or eating establishments and both hotels are rather tired in appearance and unappealing . The small off-licence / grocers is very well stocked and run by the most helpful and friendly people. In summary, a decent enough site but not for a longer stay as somewhat limited in things to do and see.
