The most beautiful setting

We loved this site so much we stayed twice during our recent touring holiday in Scotland. Everything about this site is great; the adjacent Beinne Eighe nature reserve is fantastic for safe dog walking with no livestock (important in lambing season). The wardens are very friendly and helpful. Although peaceful and 'away from it all' the small village has a very useful small general shop/post office, a cafe and hotel with a good bar/restaurant serving excellent food. Thoroughly recommended.

Boiler failure left us disappointed

For two of the four days we were on site, there was no adequate hot water in the shower block because the boilers had failed. Otherwise, I'd give the site 5 stars. Site is easy to find, on good roads. Layout is a bit drab despite presence of silver birches. It is all hard standing and flat. The views up to Benn Nighe are stunning. It is a paradise for twitchers, walkers and photographers. There are several scenic drives for those who want to wander further. MSVP is within a large open space and has a grid over the drain rather than a heavy cover. Local cafe on the Torridon road [within easy walking distance] is good but a little pricey. Supermarkets are miles away but there is a fuel station and shop. Avoid the midge season.

A great site for walkers. Set in a beautiful location and plenty of space to spread out.

Beautiful site

A beautiful little site in an amazing location. Warden couldn't be more helpful. Told us about local amenities, shops. dogs friendly pub in the hotel, fuel from the next door garage and, because we had dogs, told us about the local walks, how long they would take to complete and what we might see when we were out. The forest is on your doorstep and the local visor centre a mile and a half from the site. You can watch the squirrels and birds from the hides as the centre and enjoy the peace and quiet of either a lowland or slightly more testing hill walk. With a hotel  just across the road from the site, you don't even have to cook. The food was delicious. All the amenities you expect from a CC site and the site itself was immaculately kept. We will be back.

Snow visit!

Arrived at Kinlochewe after experiencing the drive to Applecross in wintry conditions, not dangerous but very picturesque. The remainder of the coastal run from Applecross to Kinlochewe is also worth doing, not so many steep bits! The site was excellent, nice wardens, nice facilities, everything as you would expect.

Hidden gem

We purely picked this site as we were en route back home on a quick whistle stop trip round Scotland and in early April there was very little other choice but wow how pleased we were that we did. I am not a fan of large 'commercial' sites but this one was so well laid out and with such friendly and helpful wardens it did not feel large or commercial. The village has everything you need with small spar shop, post office, garage and shop, two excellent eateries and scenery to die for. Lovely walks, easy and hard, almost straight off the site with plenty of wildlife to see. Our one night stop turned into two as there was so much to do and see in this area. Wonderful site and we will back again next year and this time for longer.

First visit to ki lochewe

First visit to this area.  Very good site In terms of lovely scenery.  Plenty nice drives from the site but beware petrol station next door is very rarely open.  Toilet block is very clean and drying room is a welcome addition.  Nicely laid out site.  Wardens are friendly however when we arrived it was relief wardens who did not give us any information and reception was hardly ever open to get information.  Resident site wardens arrived back the day we were leaving and were helpful and friendly with lots of information.  On our days out we discovered lots of great roads to explore to hunt for the wildlife.  We will definitely return.

A wonderful place!

This was our first stay at a club site and was simply delightful. A wonderful welcome, even although we later found we had arrived at lunchtime. The site is well laid out and facilities are spotlessly clean and little touches such as short hoses on taps to help make necessary tasks so quick and easy for even first time caravaners like us made our stay a delight. The wardens are so knowledgeable and friendly and have thought of so many ways to make this a very special place such as the information hut and drying room we could not have wished for a better start to our adventures. We will definitely be going back soon.

Fantastic Site

This is certainly one of my most favourite sites. The view of the snow capped Beinn Eighe Mountain from our caravan window was beautiful. The site is spacious with great hardstandings and lovely clean warm shower facilities. The drying room for boots and coats is a great addition although we only used it once as we had a week of perfect weather with no midges at this time of year. It is very peaceful and quiet with lots of beautiful walks nearby and easy to travel out to visit places further afield (don't miss the breathtaking Cattle Pass on the road to Applecross voted one of the world's greatest car journeys by National Geographic 2012). There is lots of wildlife here too and we saw Golden Eagles, deer, a wild cat and dolphins on our days out. The wardens are very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. I would really recommend this fantastic site and I will hopefully be back to visit soon.

One of our favourite sites

Have just spent another peaceful week at this site. We had a very warm welcome from the new wardens and Beth their dog. A major update to the tv signal, it is now digital and you get 5 channels and a good quality picture. However there were a few teething problems but hopefully they will be sorted. Two Lochs radio is a great wee radio station with all your weather info for any walking you may do in the area (and there are plenty of walks for all abilities) . No midges at this time of the year which was another bonus.
