This site and the surrounding area is just wonderful heaven on earth as I described it . Beautiful scenery great walks and so relaxing. The site has everything you need very well run beautifully keep . Will definitely return .
Close to Sheil Bridge and about 12 miles from Lochalsh,( the nearest supermarket), this little site was busy with the daily coming and going of vans and motor homes. The tent area always had at least one resident and was regularly occupied by dedicated long distance walkers on an overnight stay with their little tents. When we were there in the middle of May the weather began damp and cloudy but turned exceptionally warm and sunny for the second half of our stay. Getting wet whilst on a walk is not a problem as there is an excellent drying room. There are many walks to choose from but good 'gear' is essential as the paths, although mostly well marked, are not ideal for an afternoon stroll, and are often some way from an accessible road. An experienced walker could be rewarded with a view of the spectacular Falls of Glomach after a five and a half mile walk, mostly steeply uphill. Slightly less challenging are the forest walks around Balmacara, a short run up the coast. Where ever you go the views are amazing, impressive hills in every direction.
We also visited nearby Eilann Donan castle, and thought it good value for money. Privately owned and relatively recently restored after 200 years a ruin there was lots to see. Worth choosing a visit time carefully as there are often several coach parties and the corridors are narrow. There's plenty of parking
A word of warning. Exit the site carefully. The lane is mostly quiet but a few cars travel along quite quickly to say it's a twisty single track road
