Just back from 6 days on Skye (family of 4) and would thoroughly recommend this campsite. A wonderful sense of space and wilderness with clean toilet facilities and very welcoming and helpful 'Manager'. We were given excellent advice on where to camp based on expected high winds. Excellent value and location for exploring both Skye and the mainland, we'll definitely be back. Openfires and free supply of felled wood a bonus.

Selected this site for its central position on Skye and the information on the Web site. The views were indeed to die for. However that is where it ends. Primitive facilities that are not particularly clean. The site itself looks like a builders year full of half finished projects. Yes it was quiet. But close to the main road, and the beach is only accessible by crossing the road and walking down a path where a bull and his cows openly graze, so not wonderfully safe for children and dogs or their humans for that matter, although they seemed quite inoffensive I don't think you can ever trust cattle so care should always be taken. The saving grace was the hard working guy who stays in the shepherds hut. He was a god send for helping position the caravan and gave clear instructions on the showers toilets etc. , The pitches are very small. Not enough room to use an awning. Very open to the elements as well, but then it was Skye.

Site is as described on there website. The owner is very helpful. Views are splendid. From site up the back over the moor, view is fantastic. The pitches beside the gate view of hills and sea. Bonus getting discount being a camping and caravan member.
Shops are not too far away perfect site to explore Skye
Doesn't say it on website but he allows longer units in the off peak season. Stop as soon as you get in the gate and walk round to pick your pitch.
We will definitely be back to this site.

We stayed for a night here and it was lovely. Friendly welcoming in a pretty and quiet site.
Good location to visit the rest of Skye
For the eco friendly person there is a composting wc and recycling bins for everything.
Shops were a short drive/bike up to Broadford were there is a large co op.
Lots to do and see for all the family not far, we visited Colbost croft museum, Dunvegan castle and aquaXplore to name a few.
We will be back again

We booked this site partly due to the excellent and informative web site that showed that the owner cared about and had a passion for this site and its environment. In prior communications and in person we were treated in a helpful, courteous and friendly manner by the owner and his daughter. When one of our party forgot his tent poles a small tent was provided free of charge for the week
It is situated close to the Skye Bridge in the south east of the island and roughly midway between Kyle which is on the mainland and Broadford which is on Skye each town has a Co-op supermarket and a few other shops, Kyle also has a very good butcher.
The campsite is under development and currently offers accommodation for a good number of tents and mobile homes in different areas. We found one of many flat areas to set up our tent 'village' and enjoyed views of the Southern mountains to one side and The Inner Sound and the island of Pabay on the other. There were some queues for the unisex toilets and the shower at times but there are imminent plans to build a new amenities building which will be useful.
The cost of camping is very reasonable and based on the person rather than the tent, there are no set tent pitches giving a lot of options. Wood and the use of saws are provided free as are a few improvised portable hearths, I took an axe and spitting maul to dismantle pallets for burning.
The island is magical and well worth a visit, Portree is 29 miles away, Talisker distillery is 28 miles away and the Museum of Skye Life which is well worth a visit and from where you can see the Outer Hebrides is 51 miles away.
There is a wealth of information available from Tourist Information Offices in Broadford and Kyle. A place well worth visiting is Plockton, on the mainland 7 miles north of Kyle, we arrived at the end of the Regatta and enjoyed watching passers by being taught Scottish dancing in the closed of main street.
We were also fortunate in being there when the Portree Highland Games were held and had a good day out there. A variety of boat trips are available from the Island and Kyle and Plockton as are ferries to other islands.
Being where it is you can expect to encounter midgies and the local shops sell various lotions such as 'Smidge' and, for the sensitive folk, head nets, if you are sensitive to insect bites then packing anti-histamines may be a good idea.
All in all I can unreservedly recommend Skye, Lochalsh and this campsite.

Stayed one night here in Aug 2011, site was very basic indeed, very rough ground pitches, a few more toilets, showers etc would be a good plan as site was very busy.
This site is not as quite as it seems very busy main road, main route on and off island, just feet from some of the pitches. Campfire areas were a good idea wish more sites offered this, there was even loads of wood.
Moved on after first night due to road noise and very wet ground. No facilities shops, pubs etc within walking distance.
