anyone one know of any good ones close to city centre or near public transport
Bring a good chain or lock for your bike.
There's also a site on the north side of the city at Silverknowes. Smaller area for tents. https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/club-sites/scotland/edinburgh/edinburgh-caravan-club-site/
Both sites are well served by buses. Download the app here

Edinburgh has had big issues for bike theft in the recent past, seems particularly foreign tourist bikes get targetedis bike theft a problem in scotland ???
should be alright on the camp site ??
i did use this site only £22 on the day but the first thing they offered was an almighty chain and lock i asked why they said they were having issues with bikes being stolen .i asked do you have security they advised no do you supply a locked garage or shed they advised no .so very little sleep that night i did hear a van pull up at 0330 people walking around and then they left .not sure if anything taken .so will not be using that place again or visiting edinburgh again .but had a good trip doing the NC 500
