Motorhome Stopovers in East Lothian

East Lothian's North Berwick coastline holds Bass Rock, which supports one of the world's largest colonies of northern gannets — around 150,000 birds — visible from the shore as a white-capped island. John Muir, the naturalist who founded the modern conservation movement, was born in Dunbar in 1838, and the John Muir Way long-distance route starts there. Tantallon Castle, the 14th-century red sandstone fortress on the clifftop above the sea, is one of Scotland's most dramatic ruins.
