      Dun' With Dunbar

      May 2 in Scotland ⋅ 🌬 10 °C

      Well they say everywhere looks better in the sunshine and they're right. We woke up to lovely sunshine today and the view from the window was certainly an improvement.

      Today we're off to Dunbar for an 'off grid' night on the leisure centre or harbour car park.

      First off we stop at Eyemouth for a look around, parking for free on a car park above the harbour only accessible by driving through the golf course. It is a proper road don't worry.

      A lovely little working harbour town complete with fish processing plant. We walked around the harbour and even manage a walk along the beach, no paddle though, before heading back to the van and onwards to the next stop at St Abbs.

      Unfortunately after negotiating our way down to the very tight harbour car park there is nowhere to park, and not a lot to look at so we head off to Dunbar.

      We, that's the Royal we, checked out a couple of places to park up for the night. The first is a little car park by the harbour and lightboat station, not big enough. Next is a car park we can't even get down the road to , thanks to the parked cars and 90 degree bend. So after reversing back up road we try the final destination. The leisure center car park. Built up high on the headland it's very exposed and quite busy, the parking spaces are not very big so we decide to forego our walk around the town and a meal out and head for the Camping and Caravan Site 2 miles outside the town. A lovely open site with views of the sea. As a compensation we order a takeaway Curry for tea.
