A great site run by the local community. Situated on the outskirts of Port Charlotte which has a shop, bar & restaurant. At the campsite entrance there is a café/snack bar. The campsite facilities are kept clean & are spacious. Showers were superb & the water was always lovely & warm. There are pitches for all type of units right on the edge of the site with amazing views over the loch.

What a super site with fantastic views! What a great way to add value to a sports ground. We received a lovely welcome from Anna and we were able to choose between a pitch at the bottom of the site or one at the top. We chose the pitch at the top because there was more space between the units. A very clean site. The showers and toilets were spotless and spacious with lots of hot water.

What a superbly run campsite which is a credit to the local community who saw a gap in the market and amply filled it!
We spent just two nights here in early September 2014 and the site was full each night. The hardstanding pitches at the bottom of the site are a bit close together but the sea views & the spectacular sunrise soon made up for that small criticism.
There are two water fill point - one at the top of the driveway by the equipment store and another one adjacent to the pitches. The EHU’s are against the fence and easily accessible. The CDP is up by the café/clubhouse so is a bit of a distance away, so maybe a small trolley would be a good investment!
The toilets, showers and washing up areas were kept spotless and are accessible at all times – even when the café etc. Is closed.
We had a fish & chip lunch at the café [to be recommended] and also made use of their free Wi-Fi facility [in the café only].
The staff were all friendly and accessible.
Port Charlotte has two pubs/hotels as well as a SPAR shop and the Museum of Islay Life.
There appears to be only one other campsite on Islay, so you have little choice should you not wish to wild camp. It would be great if other communities on the island could provide a similar campsite – say at Bowmore. Or maybe the RSPB could put aside some land on one of their two reserves?
Well done Port Mor!

This is a lovely site. It's very well kept and has a football pitch, an excellent children's playpark, good facilities and a cafe on site.
It is within easy walking distance of Port Charlotte, and slightly further from Bruichladdich, which has the best distillery tour on the island.
The only slight criticism we have is that the electric hookups were very close together. When we stayed the weather was so good we didn't actually need any electronic gizmos, and wished we hadn't booked a hookup!

Great site with a friendly laid back atmosphere. A community owned site which is looked after with obvious pride by all concerned.
Toilets and showers first rate.
Hard standings with EHU right at the front of the site therefore uninterrupted views over and up and down the loch.
Short walk into Port Charlotte with its shop, hotel, good meals and live music on Wednesday, the Lochindaal Bar and try Yan's Kitchen opposite the museum coffee and free home made scone.
You must visit the Museum of Islay Life a wonderful eclectic collection and again friendly laid back staff (sums up this wonderful island really).
The site doesn't have a card machine so take cash, the shop in the village has a free cash machine if you forget.
Cal Mac now allow motorhomes up to 6m at the car rate.
Excellent site to use as a base to explore this gem of an island - a credit to everyone involved.

We camped at Port Mor for 7 nights in July 13, and had a brilliant holiday. The site was perfect for our boys aged 11 & 8, with the football pitches and play park. The view from the site is amazing over Loch Indaal.
The showers, toilets and washing up block was kept spotless, and we never had to wait for a shower. We never used the cafe, but it was always busy with locals and campers alike. The best place to pitch up is along the bottom bottom for the view, these pitches filled up quickly, but plenty of spaces elsewhere too and the view would still be fine. What a great community facility this is.
The weather was hot and sunny the whole week, and we spent a lot of time on the beaches, the local ones are lovely. The distilleries are worth visiting, the local one, Bruichladdich, was the most welcoming, giving myself and the boys complimentary juice and water on a hot day while hubby sampled a malt or two. We also had a nice lunch at Ardbeg. Finlaggan and the American Monument also worth a visit.
We looked at Kintra campsite while there, but felt that Port Mor was the right right choice for us. It was a great base base for the whole island, and one of our most enjoyable camping trips, would definitely recommend it.
