Breath-taking

Stayed here in September. The wardens need and deserve a shout out as they took delivery of a parcel for us which arrived before we did! The views are stunning, it was a great place to relax and unwind and forget your worries and look at the wonder of nature . The site was very clean and all precautions taken as required during the pandemic. We will be back

Great place to relax!

First time to this site, but won't be the last! Like many other like minded people, needed a break from the dreary news and lockdowns. This certainly made us forget the outside world for 1 week! Having 2 dogs, the beach and adjacent forest walks in the Dunnet Community Woodland were absolutely first class, we all benefited from fresh air and exercise. The weather also played it's part, some cold days but dry. It is well placed for Thurso John' O Groats and Wick as well as Duncansby Head. Facilities due the COVID were restricted but this did not impact our stay at all.

Views and beach stunning

Booked here for 3 nights but only stayed for 1 as the weather wasn’t great (as you might expect for this part of the world) ! Quite exposed when very windy so be prepared for that. Beautiful beach where you can walk for miles but little else nearby so again bear that in mind. Really glad we visited. The only down side here is the toilet/ shower facilities which are mentioned in other reviews. 2 toilets only despite it being quite a large site. Not really up to the same standard as other sites we have visited. That said, great for those who are able and happy to use on board facilities. Great hotel called the Northern Sands just up the road. Lovely food and well organised re Covid safety.

Wonderful location

Absolutely loved this site, the beach is stunning, dog friendly and easily accessed directly from the site. The Site Wardens were friendly and helpful, providing information on our pitch, the facilities and the location. They clearly explained to read the information provided on the COVID restrictions and it can be fully understood why the facilities are restricted to one family group at a time, its just a case of avoiding peak times and being patient, though we didn't need to wait at all. We cannot wait to go back to this site and spend more time there and would highly recommend for anyone who wants a stunning beach and beautiful scenery.

Great Location

The main reason for staying here is the location on an extensive wild beach about as far north as you can get on the UK mainland. The site has adopted a range of Covid 19 measures including check-in by telephone and restricted toilet/shower access - probably easier to use your own facilities. The site borders a road so there is some road noise, but unlikely to bother most folks, The site is quite undulating so finding a level pitch isn’t easy without chocks. Quite an exposed site, so be prepared for all that mother nature can throw at you. Busy site given position on N500 route which is particularly busy this year. Friendly, helpful staff.

COVID gone mad

This was the final camp site for our Lands End to John O'Groats cycle ride - 18 days and 18 campsites across the length of the country. So we have seen a complete cross section of COVID ready preparations - from non-existent to extreme. An Dunnet Bay was the most extreme of the extreme To only allow one person at a time in the toilet / shower blocks when the site is full is just crazy. I gave up with site facilities and used the public car-park toilets which fortunately were just around the corner. Luckily we only stayed one night.

September Adventure 2020

Very enjoyable visit to Dunnet Bay. Booking in was very easy by telephone and everything was carefully explained by the pleasant lady warden. Beach is very beautiful and well worth a long walk. Cycling on back quiet roads really good and all vehicles passing were giving plenty room. The Dunnet Forest Walk is well worth a visit to see the log cabin and sculptures. Only downside was members allowing their dogs to use the tent area as a toilet - very inconsiderate and unpleasant for those who had to pitch their tents there.

Good to be back

As we have done many times before, had stopover on the way to Orkney and again week later on return. Site staff very welcoming and easy check in process. Given the covid issues we happily used own facilities so cannot comment on toilets/showers, although appeared to be good system for access. Happy to adhere to new rules etc for pleasure of getting back to sites.
