Greenhillock is a unique eco-friendly campsite set within beautiful rewilded meadows, offering a serene escape for nature lovers. The site features spacious, private pitches in a car-free layout, with wheelbarrows provided for luggage. Guests repeatedly praise the exceptionally kind and accommodating owners, Stig and Kate, who have been known to upgrade guests to hobbit holes during storms. Activities include Saturday pizza nights from a wood-fired oven, an art shack, den-building, and a pond. Facilities are rustic yet functional, with composting toilets, solar showers, and a communal kitchen. The atmosphere is peaceful and quiet, ideal for relaxation and digital detox, though mobile signal is weak. Families appreciate the safe environment where children can roam freely. Wildlife enthusiasts will enjoy the birds and butterflies in the rewilded fields. However, some guests note that composting toilets can become unsanitary during busy periods, and solar showers may not always provide hot water. The site is remote, requiring over an hour to reach Edinburgh, and lacks modern amenities like full hookups, wifi, or a swimming pool. The pitch layout ensures privacy, and campfires are allowed. While some find the site overpriced for its basic offerings, most visitors are charmed by its eco-conscious ethos and welcoming community feel. Noisy groups can occasionally disrupt the tranquility. The chemical toilet disposal area is absent, and signage to the site is poor. Despite these minor issues, the natural beauty and thoughtful design leave a lasting positive impression. It is best suited for those who value peace, nature, and sustainability over luxury.
