Camping
Please phone ahead for availability if you are travelling on the day. We advise that it is usually best to book ahead. We're a small, friendly and quiet site located a very short walk to the shores of Little Loch Broom, with 12 grass pitches on a gentle slope. This makes the site unsuitable for caravans and most motorhomes (all vehicles should be under 6 metres in length), but our spaces are happily filled out with tents and small campervans throughout the year. The site may be basic, but it is well maintained with love and care. Parking is next to your tent pitch which is surrounded by an abundance of wild flowers, animals, birds and a short walk from the wild beauty of Little Loch Broom. There are no hardstandings or grey/black water emptying facilities. We have 4 electric hook up points - please book or phone ahead for EHU availability. We are very dog-welcoming - we only ask that dogs are well-behaved and cleaned up after, and that owners are wary of livestock in the surrounding area.
Although there is no reception on site, the campsite attendant will be around at various points in the day. There is an honesty box system still used for the occasional times the attendant is unavailable and cash payment is needed. It is recommended that bookings are made online by using the availability calendar further down the page to guarantee your spot, especially for EHU and during the summer months. Upon arrival at the site please take a pitch suitable for your vehicle and tent if not directed by the attendant, although we will send you a text on the morning of arrival with some details too.
All facilities are bright, unique and well-maintained and made from high quality local materials. There are two wonderful showers adjoining the male and female toilets. The facilities shared with the bothy which can be used as a social/eating area and games room when not booked on a sole use (private hire) basis, allowing a welcome retreat from the sun or rain. Please see our bothy page for booking details.
The water on site is coloured by peat from the hill. It's often a fairly unappealing brown-yellow colour but it is perfectly drinkable as it is filtered and then sterilised before getting to the taps. It's fresh from the hills! In times of dought conditions and high volumes of guests on the site the water supply can get very low or temporarily run out - it usually takes a combination of the two mentioned factors, but it's worth knowing. In the winter time it can also freeze.
We recommend that during the summer months you get yourself some midge repellent! If you are camping anywhere on the west coast of Scotland it is vital to prevent having a miserable time. We recommend "smidge" because it stops them biting, although unfortunately it does not stop them existing.
