Stunning Views

Stayed here for a couple of nights while doing the NC 500. This CL has fantastic views overlooking Loch Eriboll (A two masted sailing ship was anchored during our stay which enhanced the already great views). Well spaced hard standing pitches, the usuall facilities plus a cafe'. Would most certainly visit this cl again. The owner was chatty and helpful.

Tranquility

We had a two night break here recently. We had chosen it specifically for the scenic and quiet location. We knew the owner might not be there at our arrival but he had given us good instructions just in case. The five pitches are shale, rather than pea gravel. One pitch appeared too far from ehu, even with two cables connected. We were a little disappointed with toilet facilities, which were a little tired and could do with sprucing up. It was the weekend before Easter and so the tearoom wasn't open yet, which may have impacted on the lack of hot water and general grubiness of the toilets. The owner was friendly and knowledgeable of the area. The views are spectacular. The first night, we had a visit from some deer, who grazed right next to our van. The second night,the wind blew a proper Highland hooley, which was pretty scary. The Loch side is easily reached and well worth a loch side walk. A lovely area to visit, if you enjoy peace and tranquility.

Great stop over

Arrived on wet and windy afternoon. Weather generally awful while we were there which definitely affected our opinion. Fabulous views with all of the basic amenities you should expect from a CL plus a Tea Shop on site BUT roads to and from very narrow and slow so not inviting to return from days out. Walk from site to loch good but not easy underfoot for stretches along loch. Plan to stop on way to and from Durness - you wont be disappointed

Wow what a great find.

If you want a site with great views ,smashing owner, wonderful area to explore with beaches close by to die for with no one on, wildlife in abundance well I have just found you the perfect spot. We stayed in August 2014 ( daft time to go for the midges, our fault) and had a wonderful few days. We had booked our next site in advance otherwise we would have stayed much longer. Treat yourself and visit.

Wild 94 Laid

Do you want to get away from it all? Do you want spectacular views? Then this could be the place for you? We stayed here for one night in pretty atrocious weather, seriously windy, horizontal rain & just the occasional glimpse of sun light & rainbows over the Loch before yet another storm blew in! When we arrived I thought the place was closed but we were greeted by the owner without even getting out of our van. Everything looked closed up but the two toilets were open & the water was on. It felt a little remote, desolate even, accentuated perhaps by the weather. This was like wild camping with a capital W but with electricity! & I don't necessarily mean that in a negative way. No TV unless you bring a satellite dish, no WiFi, No phone signal & oh so quiet apart from the wind & the rain lashing against the van. No pub nearby or Hotel the on site cafe was closed, so we had to self cater & just watch the scenery gradually disappear as yet another squall moved in. The ground was surprisingly well drained despite what the weather threw at it but the toilets were a little disappointing, in need of a clean but I've seen & used much worse. In summary it's a beautiful, wild, un-spoilt location, with dramatic views & a friendly owner but the facilities are in some need of some TLC

EXCELLENT CL

Great CL, hard standings are excellent. Views and walk down to the lochside is superb. Great cafe on site. If you want TV take sat dish but good take off to south. Well worth a vist.

Probably the best view from a CL in Britain...

Fantastic location just above a loch which can be reached easily through a gated field. Hard standings and well spaced pitches with views for everyone to enjoy. Welcoming and friendly owner who also runs a small tea shop on site. Electric hook up newly installed and easy access to water tap, waste and loos. We only stayed one night but wish we had stayed longer, fully recommend to anyone looking for peace and tranquility with amenities. Ok you can wild camp but at this price and location why bother with all the hassle and insecurity, plus this way you are supporting a local business. Highly recommended!

Relaxed

Visited 94 Laid early May 2013. This site has some of the best views you will ever experience in our opinion. The pitches are all solid hardstandings with a good road to each. The owner has a tearoom on site too so we enjoyed a very reasonably priced cuppa and slice of cake each. The wildlife alone is worth the trip. Six o'clock one morning we went to Loch Eriboll which is only a short walk through the owners field. While we were there we saw numerous different birds and were lucky enough to have an otter come right up to the shore within 15 yards of where we were sitting. We were being very still and quiet and watched the otter have a scratch and a bit of a bask in the sun. When the otter did eventually see us it looked at us inquisitively for a few moments, then came a little closer before slipping peacefully back into the Loch and off for some breakfast. The owner has leaflets for walking up to the 2000 yr old wheel house up the hill about 950 feet up. The walk up is next to the burn and is a very nice walk, not too steep at all really, and it is lovely walking next to the burn with the sound of runnign water accompanying you up. There are two other walks within a half a mile from the site but we didn't partake of those. We did walk along the Loch which is a nice walk too. One the last day we were there the wind was completely still so we walked down to the Loch to witness an amazing flat calm water with Gannets fishing just offshore. Wonderful site.

Beautiful cl site

This is a lovely site with great views over loch Eriboll. If lucky a naval ship or submarine may be seen and tie up to the near admiralty buoy. Good near level hard standing. Lovely 5min walk down to the loch side thru fields. Can be a bit blowy if weather bad. Friendly and informative owner.
