Remote but beautiful

Our first trip of the 2015 season took us to this very pleasant and quiet site. We had the good fortune to enjoy wonderful weather and arrived just after the main Easter weekend. The remote situation of the site means the road leading to it from Campbeltown is both very scenic but also testing for the outfit. Be sure to follow the directions in the site directory as the other approach roads are even more difficult! The site itself had just opened for the season and we stayed for 5 nights. We had a lovely pitch looking towards Arran, and there are others overlooking the beach itself. Wherever you pitch the site is tranquil and very peaceful. The toilet block is not quite the club standard, but clean and well managed, although unheated. The electrical connections are limited to 6 amps, so we used gas heating to avoid the inevitable tripping of the breakers.  You need bio toilet fluids, to avoid disturbing the workings of the septic tank at the site.  Around the site there are many walks and a number of hotels and cafes. The best of these is the Glen, just at the crossroads as you arrive at the site entrance. Also here is a Cafe (Network Centre) with bike hire. Not recommended is the Carradale Hotel, which seemed to be rather busy and understaffed when we called for dinner. All the other places we tried in the area were at least good and some cases excellent. The people of the area are very friendly and welcoming, I needed to buy a tool during the visit and was given the best help in the many places I had to call to find it.  You will enjoy your visit to this site and this part of the world. Highly recommended for those who tow with confidence!
