A five-star campsite in East Lothian has been crowned the best in the UK.
Drummohr Camping and Glamping Site in Musselburgh was named Campsite of the Year at the Camping Awards 2024. Organised by Camping magazine, the awards celebrate the top tents and campsites in the UK.
Praised for its ‘awesome location’ and ‘super friendly staff, Drummohr boasts scenic views as it’s just a stone’s throw away from the beaches on the Firth of Forth.

As the Record reports, the campsite, which was given a five-star rating by VisitScotland last year, includes self-catering luxury lodges with hot tubs, glamping pods, and en-suite bothies. It also features both grass and hard-standing pitches for touring and tents.
The family-friendly site also has themed wizard, adventure, and fairy glamping pods for children to enjoy, as well as family bothies and a large playground. Meanwhile, its newly refurbished amenity blocks include underfloor heating, free hot showers, family-friendly accessible bathrooms with baths, and an indoor campers’ kitchen and laundry.
Drummohr is also dog-friendly, with its own scenic dog walk and dog-friendly accommodation. Up to two dogs are welcomed on its tent and touring pitches free of charge.

Open all year round, the campsite is close to the beaches of East Lothian and Scotland’s golf coast, and is near the John Muir Way for walkers and cyclists. The site has excellent public transport links into Edinburgh, with the bus stop a five-minute walk and the train station a 15-minute walk.
Site manager at Drummohr Angie Purves commented: “We are absolutely delighted to have won this award, and the fact that it is voted for by members of the public makes it even more special. The whole team works really hard to ensure that our guests have a brilliant time at Drummhor and the reviews and feedback we get from guests reflect how much they appreciate the warm welcome and attention to detail.
“We’re always working towards making things even better for our guests, and are constantly updating and improving our facilities so they get the best possible experience.”
Editor of Camping magazine Iain Duff added: “The Campsite of the Year award is important because it is voted for by the public, and no one knows more about what makes a great campsite than campers.
“This is not just a box-ticking exercise, these are people who want to give recognition to their favourite campsites, and it’s clear from reading the comments left by voters that they really love everything about Drummohr. A campsite is judged on its location, facilities and the friendliness of its staff and it scored highly on all fronts.”
The public Campsite of the Year poll was voted on by readers of Camping magazine, as well as its sister website Out and About Live and its social media channels. More information can be found on The Camping Awards website.
