Peebles (for pubs) rather than spitting distance of Glentress.
Basically- quietish, secure with good shower block.
There's 2 in the town!
This is probably the better of them

(EDIT - Ever heard of 'Google'? 😉 )
Thats the one on Edinburgh road, used that, nice, up there at weekend too maybe..or a spot of "wild" camping.
Also recommend the bunkhouse.
Roughtly the 6th/7th hit on Google is this, spookily!

Google gives facts, STW gives experience and opinion of mountain bikers.
Horbags - bunkhouse would be good.
Rosetta
Bunkhouse - goodpoint.
If Rosetta is the better of the two I dread to think what the other one is like. Stayed at Rosetta last summer it was tired and run down, we we're camping with a van in the lower caravan area and it was like a ghost town.
Crossburn or Rosetta, but I prefer Crossburn.
I have stayed at Crossburn and it was good.
stayed at crossburn more than once & its fine .
wouldnt stay at rosetta anymore .
Stayed at Rosetta a couple of years ago - was pretty run down then
We stay at the Rosetta two or three times per year .... always seemed fine to me. Just booked in there for Easter so I hope it's OK.
With the van we normally head for the hardstanding in the lower field - not sure whether that makes any difference.
Ok onbalance will avoid Rosetta.
mmm rosetta - like camping on the side of a munro with toilets ...
seriously who the **** puts the main camping area on the side of a hill ?
was pretty disgusting when i was there tbh !
Been to Glentress for the last 3 years.
Fisrt year we camped at Rosetta for a week, it was ok. One of the blokes showers was broken and the other was stupidly hot. Ladies ones were lovely 🙂
But it was tired and lots of the tent pitches are on a slope WTF.
Second year we rented the tweedvalleybikehouse for 4 nights and loved it.
This year we have the bikehouse for a week as it was perfect to use for 6 of us.
I wouldn't camp again.
