Why stay here ...

North Ledaig Club Site is one of the best locations on Scotland's west coast. This wonderful 30 acre park is situated on a 2 mile sand and shingle beach on Ardmucknish Bay. Here sailing, water sports and bathing can be enjoyed by all the family. Some pitches at the caravan site are almost at the water's edge and all of them face the sea, offering a panoramic view to the beautiful Isle of Mull, only a short ferry ride away.

From North Ledaig Club Site you can take a scenic walk along the deserted shoreline to watch wading birds or if you are really lucky glimpse an otter or dolphin swimming in the bay. Enjoy a cycle ride along the NCN 78 which runs adjacent to the site or visit nearby Oban which is a bustling fishing port and main ferry terminal for the Hebrides and Western Isles. Inland trips to visit Glencoe, Cruachan Power Station in the hollow mountain, some of the 17 Glorious Gardens of Argyll & Bute and the historic town of Inveraray are a must for visitors to this idyllic caravan site.

Great site. Great views.

North Ledaig Caravan Club Site
Stayed here for 5 nights. 3rd time at this site over the last few years. Caravan and Motorhome Club members have access to a club members only area. Loads of space between each pitch and all have a great view overlooking the water. Request for pitch near toilet block accommodated. Facilities are good however several mornings I found a lot of the ladies toilets in a disgusting state. This was due to dirty campers. I felt sorry for the staff who had to come to clean them. There’s easy access to the pebble beach and a good walk along the old railway line that is tarmaced. A few folks reviews complained about the entry to the site. Yes, it’s not well signposted but didn’t really find it a problem that there’s some old boats etc in the forecourt They really don’t cause an issue. It’s handy for the bus stop and has an on-site shop. Easy drive to get into Oban etc. Lots of scenic areas to drive to. We would definitely return for another stay.

Lovely views

North Ledaig Caravan Club Site
The star feature of this site is the views out to sea and the beautiful sunsets. It also has a well-stocked shop on site. As a retired couple, we found it a peaceful place to be, with plenty of places for walking and sites of historical interest. Oban is only 6 miles away, and has lots of good boat trips available. Good fish and chip shop just up the road at Tralee, where you can phone through your order. We also had a meal out at the Falls of Lora Hotel and would recommend their food. Interesting menu, with generous portions. The site itself is a bit functional - basically just a bare field if you're in the section near the sea. That meant it was pretty breezy at times while we were there, with no much chance to sit outside in really warm sunshine. The facilities are OK, but not up to the standard of a typical caravan club site, and a bit shabby-looking in places. The site should have a bigger, bolder sign on the forecourt. It's a small sign at ground level, with rather faint lettering. Easy to miss in amongst all the foliage, and if you overshoot, approaching from the south, it's quite some way until you can get turned around to have another go. Recommend driving it on Google street view beforehand.

Not a Club Site...?

North Ledaig Caravan Club Site
It's described as an Affiliated Site - it's a very large commercial site and CAMC Members get a small price reduction. Previous reviews describe the POOR SIGNAGE, SCRAP CARS, SCRAP BOATS & SCRAP CARAVANS covered in moss at the entrance - what a MESS! The site has great views but is very exposed. It has absolutely NO WI-FI and the owners appear to be in no rush to get it. ALSO, be aware there are no security barriers - in fact security is non- existent - just drive in and out day or night!

Pros and Cons

North Ledaig Caravan Club Site
As with previous recent reviews this site is a bit of a mixed bag The site needs better signposting as the office confirmed that vans regularly overshoot.The car park is littered with various vehicles that look as though they haven't been moved for years.Indeed the whole place looks a bit tired Whilst accepting the sheer size of the site needs an explorer to guide you to your pitch ,it is irritating to have to wait for him/ her to return a while to pick you up. POSITIVELY we were lucky to have a great pitch right by the beach.... although the JCB next to us was an interesting piece of public art ! The shop/reception staff were pleasent and the shop itself well stocked inc vino! The bus stops right outside and drops off in the centre of Oban. All in all not really up to CMHC standard but has positive points too if you want to stop in the area.

Love this place.

North Ledaig Caravan Club Site
We have been here many times and it is still our favourite site despite very unseasonal weather in May. Waking up to the view of the loch is unbeatable. We will be back.
