I cannot believe that this is a CL!

I would like to echo the comments of other members as to the disappointing nature of this CL. It is situated beside the road with a cattle grid nearby so quiet it is not. It has the appearance on entering of a quarry turning area for vehicles and has to be the ugliest CL I have been on with a black cinder surface.. We had booked for one night before catching the ferry to Harris as it was late afternoon I felt that we had to stay there as opposed to looking around for a better site. We were welcomed by an employee of the owner at the dilapidated mobile home on the site which doubles as an office, loo and shower. The office was a shambles and one would have to be very brave to use the loo or shower. Grim! Now some balance. The owner has installed new electric hook-ups with water points at each. There is a path from the site up the hillside to walk a dog and this was welcome. Overall I find it difficult to believe that the owner obtained permission to have a CL there and that the club is happy to have it in the network.

Comment from The Club:

Many thanks for leaving a review. I just wanted to let you know that the CL Owner works hard to ensure people have a wonderful time at his site and as such has listened to feedback from reviews to make improvements. As a result a new bespoke toilet/shower unit and a separate new office building has been built for the site. Also the cattle grid has now been replaced and as such this should no longer be an issue or disturb anyone staying on the site. The CL owner hopes this addresses your concerns and looks forward to greeting members to Merkadale soon.
