Insider Tips

  • check_circleBook pool slots immediately: The swimming pool gets extremely busy, especially on rainy Scottish days. Download the Parkdean app before you arrive and book your swimming slots the second they become available.
  • check_circleBring rockpooling nets: The beach across the road is very rocky. Buy some cheap rockpooling nets and buckets before you arrive; the kids will spend hours looking for crabs at low tide.
  • check_circleDitch the car for Edinburgh: Do not try to drive into Edinburgh city centre—parking is a nightmare. Catch the 26 bus from inside the park; it takes you straight to Princes Street for a couple of pounds.

What to Expect

1. The Caravan Experience

You will be staying in a modern, fully equipped static caravan (or luxury lodge). All units include kitchens, heating, and lounge areas, perfect for self-catering.

2. The Swimming Pool

A massive highlight for kids. The indoor heated pool complex features water flumes, a splash zone for toddlers, and regular water-based activities.

3. The Showbar

The heart of the evening resort. Enjoy bingo, kid-friendly discos with the park mascots (the Starland Krew), and live cabaret acts later in the night.

4. The Beach

Just across the main road from the park entrance is a rugged, rocky stretch of the Firth of Forth. It's not a sandy swimming beach, but it is incredible for rockpooling at low tide.

Explore the Area

Craigmillar Castle

Craigmillar Castle

Often completely overlooked by tourists flocking to Edinburgh Castle, Craigmillar is a staggeringly atmospheric, massive medieval ruin situated just 3 miles from the city centre. It features an incredibly well-preserved 14th-century tower house and extensive courtyards. It is famous in history as the safe haven where the dark plot to murder Lord Darnley (Mary, Queen of Scots' husband) was hatched in 1566. More recently, it gained global fame as Ardsmuir Prison in the hit TV series Outlander.

Palace of Holyroodhouse

Palace of Holyroodhouse

Standing magnificently at the bottom of the Royal Mile, the Palace of Holyroodhouse is the official working residence of King Charles III in Scotland. Visitors can take an exceptional self-guided tour through the opulent State Apartments to see where the monarch hosts global dignitaries today. The tour then steps back in time to the 16th century, exploring the historic bedchambers of Mary, Queen of Scots—the very site where her secretary, David Rizzio, was brutally murdered in 1566.

Dynamic Earth

Dynamic Earth

Set in a striking tent-like structure at the foot of Arthur's Seat, Dynamic Earth is Edinburgh's ultimate family science attraction. The highly immersive, interactive tour acts like a time machine, taking visitors back to the Big Bang. You will walk through a rumbling volcano, touch a massive real ice block, experience a simulated earthquake, and wander through an indoor tropical rainforest. It also houses Scotland's spectacular 6K full-dome planetarium.
