The best location on the CL network
Traigh Farm CL
Since we found the Cl 10 years ago we have done the 1000 mile round trip twice a year to this wonderful location. We have visited hundreds of sites across the UK and nothing else comes close.
It is a grass field with no electric! ( but who needs more?)
But the beach is only a few steps away, a clean protected beach ideal for children and great sand for building sandcastles, you can keep an eye on them from the caravan.
The backdrop to the beach is the bay, safe and sheltered, ideal for swimming, canoes, paddle boards etc. the bay is protected by numerous small rocky islands and other beaches.
In the background again is the Sound of Sleet, you can watch the boats and ferries visiting Mallaig. Across the sound is the Isle of Skye with the Cuillin mountains to the north west and the small isles of Eigg and Rum to the west.
Looking inland are the mountains surrounding Loch Morar and Traigh golf course, a spectacular 9 hole course.
Backing the site is a wood which protects from the prevailing winds.
There is plenty of space for 5 outfits, with each having open beach front position and space behind for field games.
The highlight for most is sunset which sinks over the horizon from Rum to Skye and is most spectacular.
There is a shop and cafe in Arisaig (2 miles) and more in Mallaig (6 miles). Major services are in Fort William about 50 minutes drive away.
Boat trips to Skye and the small isles can be taken from Arisaig and Mallaig.
The Jacobite steam train can be heard in the distance as it passes by in the summer months.
No matter how long you book for you’ll wish you could stay longer. Yes it may not be the cheapest site on the network but it is the best value for enjoyment and relaxation. Book well in advance!
Simply perfect
Traigh Farm CL
The stunning views are the topping on the cake. Easy access, lots of space, directly onto white sands. Sheltered bay for kayaks and a little further out for more challenging sailing. Meditating at 5am on the white sand with the tide gently lapping the shore was the perfect first step in distressing for this much needed holiday. Now we have found this site it will be our first consideration in the future, if we are lucky enough to book a space. Scotland at its best.
Heavenly CLSite
Traigh Farm CL
Last day today, reluctantly we have to head home tomorrow. We reviewed this site back in 2018 but wanted to reiterate how amazingly beautiful it is, just to sit here overlooking this silver sand bay while the other half plays golf across the road is my idea of heaven. If your bliss is canoeing, paddle boarding, open water swimming, bird watching, golfing, walking or getting out and about exploring an area where there is plenty to see and do then this is an ideal base As long as you have your own shower facilities and don’t need EHU then you really need to put this on your must visit list. Our sixth visit in 7 years and we will be back.
Beautiful Sunset
Traigh Farm CL
It’s a field with a view and if your lucky enough to catch the sunset you won’t be disappointed.

Traigh Farm CL
We were so lucky in sneaking a 2 week holiday in Sept 2020 on this lovely CL during what has been for everybody a very difficult year and have in fact already booked to return in 2021.
The site is a no frills site, just taps and waste disposal no electric hook up so preparation is key, our van has a fitted solar panel but we were careful positioning the van on the motor mover to preserve the battery, I did have to hook the car up twice towards the end of the 2 weeks just to boost the battery.
The location is wonderful, you are virtually sat on the beach with great view over to Skye, Rum and Laig, so much to do and look at, walking, MTB, Kayaking, sailing, horse riding, Golf, trips to Skye, trips to Inverie, walk to Tarbet and get the ferry back, just wonderful.
Roll on our return, cant recommend highly enough if you are in to your open air activities.
