Camping near Edinburgh

Jill and I have been camping up in Scotland at the weekend. We stayed at a semi-wild campsite in Inverkeithing, just over the Forth from Edinburgh. The real reason for the trip was for the Scotland v Ireland rugby game at Murrayfield and to see some shows at the Edinburgh fringe festival.
The campsite (click here to link to the website) has a badger watching hut, plenty woodland and wildflower meadows. Unfortunately we didnt have time for any badger watching but I did find a family of sparrowhawks in the wood near our tent.
We were too preoccupied with our other entertainment, but we will return here to camp and enjoy the wildlife.
