7 Nights 1 May 2019
This was stop 4 on our multi-stop tour from Lincolnshire to Scotland (and back) with 7 nights here after a 3+ hour drive from a stopover at Strathclyde Country Park.
I had heard from friends (and read reviews) about this site and they had not exaggerated. It is truly stunning. We could not get our week booking on the non-awning pitches at the front which are right on the loch side but one row back still gave a magnificent view unparalleled by any site visited before. Quite breathtaking.
This was our first visit and the wardens were really helpful with directions and suggestions for local walks with good views along the loch. They are a friendly team who keep the facilities spotless and always said hello when passing or gave a cheery wave as they they chugged by on their little orange tractor.
A short drive north takes you to Fort William which has a few shops and supermarkets. A small town well worth visiting. A slightly longer but scenic drive to Oban was also very rewarding with lots to see. On the way back to the site we had a picnic at a parking area on the side of Loch Linnhe which gave wonderful views. A total chill out experience!
While staying here we saw a red squirrel at the feeders in the woods across the road from the site and on a drive to Lochaline we spotted a sea eagle. Magnificent!
Summary: A site that's hard to sum up without ending every sentence with an exclamation mark! Well run, well located and so peaceful. Just beautiful. We will be returning next year.
