feast for midges

We stayed for 11 nights and pitched on a site looking at the beautiful mountains and witnessed some lovely sunsets while there. The village has everything you need a small shop and a garage. Victoria falls and a gorge with a suspension bridge within a short drive. The midges were relentless although we used sss from Avon which they didn't seem to like but if forgotten or parts missed they had a feast! The wardens were very friendly and helpful. Gairloch is within a 20 min drive and has a few more facilities. Easy enough to find and we would have no hesitation returning.

Almost the back of beyond

Great little site, slightly unusually laid out for a CC site, but not in a negative way. Modern wash block was small but I never had to queue – the site was just over half full. Good for a stop over if you are touring, but warrants a few days as Ben Eighe and the Torridon mountain range are must see places in my opinion.

Walked from site to the top of Slioch and back, a gruelling 8 hour trek, but worth it as the views and waterfalls enroute were spectacular.

Had a drive out to Gairloch and Poolewe and got my bike out for a spin around some of the more remote coastal areas. Weather was fab, which of course always helps.

Kinlochewe has a shop, café, pub restaurant and petrol station, so it is not quite the back of beyond. The nearest major supermarket however is 35 miles away. Be warned the midge were a big nuisance in the mornings and evenings.

There is no wifi, the tv channels from the EHU are minimal and the Vodafone signal not brilliant. Great, if you want to get away from it all for a few days.

16 August 2016: Heatwave!

What a wonderful site. All facilities spotlessly clean, staff very friendly and knowledgeable, and the site was beautifully laid out and maintained. The views of Ben Eighe were stunning and we walked down to Loch Maree one day and enjoyed the peace, tranquility and sheer drama of the landscape. We even saw a golden eagle soaring high above the site on the day when the temperature reached 27 degrees. The local shops and pub are very close and made us very welcome. All in all, a delightful holiday venue. We shall be back.

Wind & Wuthering

Friendly and helpful wardens on this lovely well kept and clean site. The toilet block was spotless as were the other facilities. Good location for walks from the site, exploring the local area or just as a stopover when touring Western Scotland. If cash is needed and the local post office is closed there is no cash machine in the immediate area. The midges can be a nuisance, so go prepared or go earlier in the season, if possible. However, the site shop stocks midge repellent, nets and citronella candles. We would definitely use this site again.

Friendly & Peaceful

Lovely site in picturesque setting. Norrie & Laura were great wardens, and can't forget on Beth their dog. Lovely walks near the campsite and a good starting point for touring the Highlands by car. The site facilities were clean and tidy and the nearby Whistle Stop Cafe was a great bonus if you don't want to cook. Will definitely be back but might try to avoid the midge season!

SUMMER VISIT

The site was very quite and the scenery lovely. However midges are a problem and they make being outside a little unpleasant. Also the description of TV reception leaves a lot to be desired. Although Tv is not the most important feature, sometimes it is nice to sit inside on a wet evening and watch a programme or two. To say Tv reception is good with the cable is very misleading . Only four working channels BBC1, ITV, channel 4 and Skynews!! Would be best to say, no Tv. Or very poor even with booster.

One of the best

We stayed at this site for one night as we toured the west coast. One of the best sites we have stayed at with large well equipped pitches, all level hardstands. The shower and toilet blocks were spotless with good modern showers of piping hot water. Wardens were very friendly and didn't mind stopping for a chat and to pass on some local advice. Hotel just a few hundred yards down the road which often has live music in the evenings which is a bit of a bonus. Only bad points were the rain and the midges but then we are on the Scottish west coast. Overall a great place to stop off.

Tranquil

This is a lovely site in the middle of nowhere with nothing but idyllic scenery and the sound of wildlife. We wish we had moved here sooner and stayed longer there are lovely walks from the campsite and it's ideal for exploring the Highlands by car. We will definitely be back the wardens were very friendly and helpful and the whole site is kept beautifully clean and tidy.

We were impressed with the peace and quiet,also the cleanliness of the site. The showers were first class. Our wee dog Alfie enjoyed the dog walk very much.

Great location

I enjoyed my weeks stay where I hoped and did lots of hillwalking. The staff were very helpful. It would be great to get wifi here in order to get the best weather forecasts for hillwalking. Also the home BBC news is for London and not Scotland? I would thought everyone would benefit from the Scottish weather etc from BBC Scotland. I loved my stay none the less.
