What about Dundee (or specifically for CS championships, Monifieth) - close to history (Roman, Pictish, industrial, exploration), water sports, hillwalking, golf, angling, art, chess ....
There are camping & caravan sites close by, other reasonably priced accommodation (not Premier Travel Inn though, despite what Lenny says) and, during the summer, student rooms courtesy of Dundee Uni.
If that doesn't appeal I have fond memories of the CS championship in Troon many years ago when I lodged in Ayr and commuted. Nostalgia is a comforting thing.
