Well positioned site.
A good location lochside. Handy for bus route and local pub, but beware opening times. Ideal for motorhomes. Perhaps you could improve the weather.

Superb
Amazing site we stayed here at the beginning of September 4 10 days. We endured the storm and wind and rain but it didn't deter us it is a magical place for scenery. The site is pristine and the wardens are brilliant special thanks to Angus who greeted us and was so friendly and helpful. We will definateley return. The facilities were always spotless and great to have a big drying room. .
Lovely site. Lovely location
A second visit to this lovely club site and yet again it doesn't disappoint.
Despite the poor weather we had a great few days at the site. Plenty to do in the area with lots of walks. A trip across to Ardgour (foot passengers go free) on the Corran ferry with a circular walk and lunch at The Inn takes some beating.
We had a small problem with the fridge in our caravan and Angus (warden) was very supportive. Much appreciated. Thank you.
Toilets and public areas were immaculate.
Breath taking Scotish trip
What a beautiful caravan site and location. We hooked our caravan up right next to the loch where we could take in the amazing views across the mountains . Nice large pitches with plenty of space between each pitch. We used all our facilities in our unit so carn't comment on the shower or toilet block. The site is immaculate and secure . We visited Fort William and The lost valley which was beautiful. Unfortunately the weather wasn't on our side and rained most of the time we were there and was very windy on the night. Would definitely recommend this site to anyone.
A piece of heaven in Scotland !
A fantastic site,location,views, friendly staff, peaceful and the facilities are spotless.{ toilets could do with an upgrade}
Would I recommend this club site, YOU BET I WOULD !!!

Tranquillity at its very best
We love this place! Just pitch up and relax. The views are stunning, the sunsets amazing and it is just a very special place. This is our favourite part of Scotland and Bunree just makes it that much better.
Beautiful Setting and location
Superb location with magnificent outlook on site and easy access to the Lochaber district (Fort William traffic system notwithstanding) and particularly Glen Coe. Decent on-site dog exercise and more taxing Forestry walks just across the road. Great staff with high standards all round. Thoroughly enjoyable.
A fantastic stay
Stayed here for 12 nights at the end of August and not a midge in sight!! The view from the pitch across the loch was breathtaking, let alone the rest of the Highlands we visited whilst there. Just a word of warning to be prepared if you "pop out". On our first day we travelled the 10 miles to Fort William for a supplies shop intending to return to the site straight after. Whilst we were out there was serious 3 car collision on the A82 near the Corran Ferry turning which closed the road for 4 hours with no diversion route available. Good job we had the electric cool box in the car for the chilled stuff!
Great for Ben Nevis, Glencoe, Hogwarts Express and more.
Views that look like they are out of a painting and lots of walks nearby. The site is spitting distance from Ben Nevis and the beautiful and astounding Glencoe pass. The Jacobite Steam Train (aka Hogwarts Express) is also nearby in Fort William and about £35 pp. The nearest town is Ballachullish where there is a tourist information centre and a Co-op. Fort William is a mile or two more in the other direction and has a Morrisons, Lidl and M&S.
The site itself is exposed to strong winds that come in off the Loch so if you have an awning make sure it can cope. The caravan club shop does sell some awning storm straps for old style awnings such as Isabella awnings and there are plenty of camping and mountaineering shops in Fort William. There is a boat lauch where you can take to the water at high tide. If you want to swim you have to go to the other end of the site and there is a spot where there where there is not so much sea weed to access the water. I did see a few small jelly fish in the water and one big one that had been washed up on the pebbles. A couple of people did some fishing and one chap did tell me what he caught, but all I can remember is that he said he caught a brown trout.
If you are thinking of bringing Summer frocks and clothes for hot weather then think again. I was there in August and I wore long trousers, jumpers and usually a coat. If you go up Ben Nevis then whatever temperature it is at the bottom take ten degrees celsius off to get a rough idea of how cold it will be at the top. Don't be dumb and try and walk up it in inadequate footwear. You really do need walking boots. Take waterproofs wherever you go in the highlands. It is very prone to heavy showers.
The corran ferry is free if you are on foot or bicycle and about £8.50 for cars or thereabouts. The nearest beach is Sanna which is a long drive on single lane roads with passing places for most of the way. It is beautiful though. Go on a nice day and take a picnic.
TV reception was patchy due to the mountains. Sometimes I could just get BBC and then other times I could only get the rubbish freeview channels and then at other times able to get both. Take some DVD's or a some good books.
You may be met by cattle on the little road that goes up to the caravan site. They are completely disinterested in you or your vehicles but could be unnerving to someone who is intimidated by their size.
Lovely well run and very busy site that still offers one the opportunity to relax and enjoy the area.
