Just come back from two weeks at this site, a bit of trek for us as we live in Wiltshire, but well worth it. As previously stated, very very busy site, but quiet, noise wise, we had a choice of four pitches when we arrived, the warden pointed out which ones were free which saved us looking for them, we found a nice spacious pitch in the 'cul-de-sac', about three rows back, still had views. which are without a doubt magnificent, anyone visiting this year is in for a treat, I understand this is not normal, a local told us that they usually get two weeks in the Spring and two weeks in the Autumn where they see the sun, so this has been an extraordinary year.
We did the touristy things, Ben Nevis..to the top!!, Nevis range cable car...and the short walks at the top, nice restaurant up there too, Ben Nevis distillery...they had run out of the Ben Nevis whisky...had to get some from Fort William. Rode the Jacobite train aka Hogwarts Express to some, visited Glefinnan Monument..Bon Prince Charlie and all that...you can use your English NT card here. When you visit Forte William don't forget look for the Forte, or what remains of it, it is easily missed, its opposite Morrisons, very interesting story to tell. This is a very beautiful area, I must say though I think we will avoid the touristy bits in the future as these are very busy with noisy, demanding, well um tourists.
