🏕️ Camping at the Park 12th June - 31st August
📍 Dalkeith Country Park
Just sharing in case anyone else is wanting to try camping with the kids but are worried it could be shite. This campsite is reassuringly close to home comforts if it all goes tits up and could serve as a good trial run before committing to going further afield. They even have pre-pitched bell tents and air beds available for all you glamourous campers.
