Altnahharra - blissfull

Booked 4 nights mid to end may 2021 and the site really does look like the photos and videos. It is a little above rough and ready camping with pitches tucked away into the hillside or along the driveway / entrance. Not all pitches are dry in the rain. When the rain did hit our pitch was puddles and mud - particularly under the awning of our caravan (advice here is dont bother with an awning). The booking in was straightforward but did seem to concentrate on what you shouldn't or couldn't do rather than the positives. This was backed up by the warden making a mistake and rushing down to chastise us for having the waste pipe connected without the end being in the hog. I did have to point out to him the legs where still in process of being put down and that means I ain't going inside to get the waste hog or the water pump until all is safe .... I think he got the point an made a strategic withdrawal - would have been nice if he had asked if we needed his help in any way but hey ho such is the effect of living remotely as a warden. So after a shaky start being bothered by an over zealous warden, the 4 night stay continued and we did move out of the puddle and mud to a drier pitch for the last night All in all this was an enjoyable stay and I would recommend it for those wanting to get away from it all and it really is that so be prepared and take EVERYTHING you need for the duration including bottled water - a least 5 litres a day

Why take bottled water? The site has a service point and you can enjoy the delightful Scottish peaty water.

I feel for the warden not being able to respond.
