There are few holiday parks that can boast such spectacular surroundings and yet be so conveniently located for sandy beaches, quaint coastal towns, an abundance of historical attractions and an enchanting world class city. Edinburgh is within easy reach of Thurston Manor so you can enjoy the best of laid back country living and vibrant city life. The pretty coastal town of Dunbar is nearby and North Berwick, Haddington and East Linton offer plenty of options for relaxing days out.
In contrast, the region’s rugged coastline offers no less than eight award-winning beaches. Enjoy dramatic sea views and magnificent nature reserves with coastal paths that lead all the way from St Abbs, through the fishing town of Eyemouth and over the border to Berwick-upon-Tweed.

John Muir Country Park
The Park is named after John Muir, the explorer, naturalist and conservationist who was born in Dunbar in 1838. He lived here until the age of 11, when the Muir family immigrated to the United States, where they settled in Wisconsin.
John Muir Country Park covers some of the most spectacular East Lothian coastline and is a haven for wildlife and people too. From the Castle Ruins in Dunbar, to the Peffer Burn six kilometres to the north, the Park includes the Cliff Top Trail, with fine views of the sea and the historic Bass Rock; the long sandy sweep of Belhaven Bay; the River Tyne estuary; and extensive areas of grassland, salt-marsh and woodland.
