We have just spent 8 days on site The location and views are great. The site layout and facilities are excellent.We even enjoyed a long walk through the 'wind farm' site. The views and the larks singing made it a great day.We would recommend site to all our friends. Looking forward to going back.

This was my second stay on this site and I'm sure it won't be my last. I'm a woman in my 50's and I was camping on my own, but felt very safe and welcomed from the moment I arrived. As the other reviews state, the location is stunningly beautiful. On the Sunday I walked into Edinbane to have lunch at the local pub. There was lovely food and entertainment by a group of local musicians. Staff on site are so helpful - I was running a bit low on petrol and they phoned a garage to check opening hours before I set off to fill up. Would unreservedly recommend this site to anyone and I will definitely be back again.

It was our first visit to Skye and we thought the campsite was absolutely fabulous. We received a warm welcome from the owners, and because it was early in the season, we were invited to choose any available pitch. We decided on a front-line spot close to the water's edge - lovely!
The owners and the Club are to be congratulated on the quality of the facilities - the toilets and showers in particular, were superb. Oh and a very well stocked shop too.
It feels remote and isolated - probably because it is! But that suited us perfectly. The coastal views are stunning.
We were on our way to the Outer Hebrides and the ferry port of Uig was conveniently only about 18 miles away. All in all a very enjoyable visit which we'd very much like to repeat at a future date. Thank you.

A lovely site,wardens more than helpful when we arrived.They gave us an info sheet to read thoughly,so we could get set up more quickly.
Mobile telephone reception is very poor,there is a telephone box on site,but can't be used while the shop is open.The shop does sell agood variety of things from gas to souveniers.
We found lots of things to see,though the roads are quite rough in a lot of places,due to the bad weather.

This site is well situated and has good facilities. There were a few too many rules for comfort, though.

The perfect spot to enjoy the wilderness, seclusion and peacefulness on the Isle of Skye. Beautiful scenery from the site itself, a fantastic dog walk (need your wellies), need your satellite dish and free to air box to be able to get a TV signal and need to drive a couple of miles towards Dunvegan to get a telephone signal, if you're that desperate. Don't forget your awning straps either. Above all it's the perfect 'get away from it all' holiday site. Don't forget to visit Neist Point and the Coral Beaches.

I was attending an event on 27th August not far from the campsite. First time four years was camping on my own and weather forecast was lousy. Found site easily and as I pulled up Chris came out and called me by name (he's a radio ham and I'm a radio operator) and he knew why I was staying. Was given a choice of fabulous lochside view or no view behind high fence close to loos and with weather due to close down Sat night went for latter. RIGHT DECISION! Was made to feel so welcome and my mates will be joining me on the site next year if the event runs. Site spotless, plenty of bins etc. and campers' shelter.
Been to Skye several times over the decades and this is a great spot to cover most of the island's attractions - it would be a bit of a haul if you wanted to do Sleat or take a boat trip to Loch Coruisk and the black Cuillin. Would still give the site 5 stars, though. Thanks Chris and co!

David and Nicky were very welcoming.In fact we felt welcomed as individuals and nothing was too much trouble. We would never of guessed that we were on a working croft because it was so quiet and peaceful. Location was superb from which one could easily access mountains, beaches, historical sites of interest and Portree, the main town. Also Uig, from which one can take ferries to explore the other isles, was close by. Facilities on the campsite were more than sufficient and spotless. Hope to use this site again.

It took a little longer than we expected but the site was worth it, super location, serene and relaxing. The only drawback was the assumption that we were Caravan Club members because I booked a grass pitch with hook up,? the sarcastic welcome was not what we expected. We were found a pitch behind the toilet block, not the best view considering we booked in May. However later arrivals were put on a grass pitch WITH HOOK UP, how bizarre. Watch out for the eggs at £2.45 for half doz. Several one nighters complained about the pitches behind the toilet block and were moved, our fault, obviously, for not complaining. By the way we have been members of the Camping and Caravan club for 20+ years should we try the Caravan Club? P.S other than the Camp Commandant the rest of the staff were friendly.

We had a wonderful holiday. This was our 3rd visit and we were made to feel very welcome. It was great to be remembered.
We had a wonderful pitch and enjoyed relaxing and looking out over the loch in the evenings. Our dogs loved the walks along the loch.
David and Nicky have done a great job improving the site and they should be very proud of their achievements. Along with Chris and Kath they provide a great holiday environment. They are always willing to help and to provide advice on local attractions and events. 5 stars for David, Nicky, Chris and Kath.
We would highly recommend this site. You are sure to find a warm welcome and to be reluctant to leave. We are already planning when to return next year.

We have been here several times over the past 4 years, last time I was in a tent, usually its the motor home.
Everything has probably been said but the last time I was here I actually forgot to go home, had to stay an extra night, no problem.
Particularly like the hot showers and the close proximity of the fishing opportunity.

We were lucky enough to stay in a Pod on this site and had a great stay. The pods were very basic inside but that was exactly what we were after. The view of the lake was stunning and the staff were very friendly and took care of the site with pride. Well worth a visit, one night wasn't enough.

We have stayed there for three years in a row, which probably says it all. It's a great place and is wonderfully run by Dave and Nicki. It has the best dog walk, or indeed people walk, you will find. Great for birds and wildlife.

We arrived through awful thunder and lightning and floods from loch ness. We had never tented before and it was our first time with our children and dogs, one of our children is autistic.
On arrival Chris and Kath could not have been more friendly or helpfull, we had several other members on site who helped my husband put the tent up (FIRST TIMERS!)they even offerred to make us a cup of tea!. I got the dogs to the dog walk and was very impressed, even though rain was forecast we got everything up without any probs, my husband did not get stressed at all - MOST UNUSUAL - must have been the warm welcome and not made to look daft at not knowing what went where etc etc. Chris then helped me get the kids onto the internet and gave us the low down on all the good places to eat that were kid and dog friendly, we all went to sleep feeling very cosy that night. The next 2 days - we had fantastic sunshine, no wind, and amazing scenic drives, walks and the kids did not say once that they were bored. BONUS !
Facilities on site are second to none, I could not fault the cleanliness, friendliness or organisation on site.
Amazing views, and sunsets, - word of advice dont bother eating in Portree we tried quite a few places and felt very ripped off - listen to Chris and Kath they know what they are talking about.
Chris and Kath really are amazing assets to this site, we were anxious about buying lots of camping equipment etc (Not cheap) but if Skye caravan and camping site is anything to go by - we will not bother going to any other form of campsite only CARAVAN AND CAMPING CLUB SITES. Thank you so much to Chris and Kath from the Williams Family.

This is a wonderful place to stop for a few nights. The welcome you get is excellent and nothing is too much trouble. What a great place to get away from it all and simply relax. You could not get bored with the view towards the loch. A great visit.

Owners David and Nicky were there to welcome us at 10.45pm!! We stayed in pod for 1st night which 'did the trick' after long journey from Bristol. Pitched tent next day and thought site was 1st class. View from canvas living room was uninterrupted over sea loch where I watched a family of 7 herons for many a hour. Facilities were well deserving of awards, the latest was 2010 and standards still up there with best. David chatted about where was best to visit for our requirements. Dog walk well signposted with poop bags and bin on hand. Walk itself was easy and scenic dogs enjoyed swims foraging and exploring lovely stretch of loch side.

We stayed for 5 nights, and the welcome given by the site wardens was excellent. We were shown to our pitch which had been especialy reserved for us as we have a long twin axle caravan. Help was offered to pitch the van if required. Views over the loch are stunning. Loo block facilities second to none. Even at 11pm, they were spotless. Dog walk great. Our last day was extremely windy & wet, and we had to take our awning down, not so easy in a gale, but we managed. All in all, the site is a credit to both the wardens who look after it, and the club itself.

This has to be one of the best sites in Scotland. Dog facilities are the best, the views breathtaking, the weather changeable (but thats the Highlands) beautiful even when its raining. We only stayed for a short break, but received a friendly and helpful welcome, and we hope to return in the very near future. We live on the mainland so only have to travel a few hours to get to this wonderful place so we hope to return a few more times this year.

Fantastic site well thought out, great location BUT with the cleanest and best thought out facilities I have ever seen on a site, it is immaculate and includes a dog wash. The operators are the most helpful and friendliest I have come across in a long time and this certainly rubbed off onto our fellow “guestsâ€
To quote and change another saying, “after visiting this site a campsite is just a campsiteâ€

just got back from the best holiday ever we originally booked 5 nights then another 5 nights then another 3 nights just didn't want to go home but work beckoned. the weather was fantastic came home with a brilliant tan although we did have a couple of really windy nights make sure you peg your awning down well.we needed a night stop on the way home which was booked on site for us, nothing was too much trouble the staff were most friendly and helpful wish i could have stayed for ever will be back as soon as possible. the cleanest and best site we have ever been too. fantastic dog walk even the dog didn't want to go home he got under the caravan when we started to wind the legs up an wouldn't come out just watch out for ticks though we are still finding them on him after 5 days at home.

Lovely site in a beautiful location by the loch. Site was extremely clean and tidy and was cleaned every day without fail for 2 hours! The dog walk was something else... You could walk around most of the loch up and down the hills, off lead with fresh water streams for dogs to drink from, never stayed anywhere like it. just a few words of warning, nearest shops are 10 miles away but the little shop on site sells milk and snacks. The site can be very windy when a storm is brewing over the Atlantic, the site ownr advised us which way to face our trailer tent to avoid facing wind, also we parked our car in front to act as a barrier. Skye is absolutely amazing with breathtaking scenery everywhere, we loved it and we will be going back!!
