Hi everyone 

We are thinking of touring Scotland in June, especially the West Coast, visiting some of the islands. Please can anyone who has done this give us some advice on good sites to stay etc.

Point taken.

Sorry we haven't replied sooner. The word midges  is enough to completely put us off, We are going to re-think a trip to Scotland, look at the map and stay on the mainland perhaps visiting an island or two. We will plan this for next April/May when the midges are not so prevalent!!.

THANKYOU EVERYONE WHO ANSWERED OUR QUERY.

Don't be put off by the idea of midges. This time of year into June will show Scotland at it's best with all the early gardens in full bloom, bluebells out and hopefully pleasant mild weather. If you go too early it might be cold, May and June are good times to visit. The scenery is beautiful and the visitors will be a bit thinner on the ground. smile

We're touring West Scotland at the moment and can recommend Morvich (CAMO site) on the Kyle of Lochailsh.  On Skye we had a good week at Staffin Camp site (privately owned) in the North of the Island, including a complementary tot of whisky to toast the new King on May 6th!  Just a word of warning about potholes on Skye - horrendous!  Have a safe and happy trip.
