Visited the site during the Easter holidays, so it was a little on the cold side. On arrival we parked up and had a warm welcome. The site was fairly busy, the views from the front pitches on the waterside breath taking. I then had a sharp intake of breath as one night was £33! ( Cause I was no longer a Caravan Club member) - I think monopolies commission should look into that one !

We could park anywhere and we got a great wee spot on the second row. Couldn't get the electric to work as it kept tripping out my switch so we were on our own (for £33 per night).

The whole site is immaculate, there was even a baby change facility that was warm, had a bath and again spotless so our 10 month old little one had a proper bath that night.

Great site, lovely area would go again, but will remember to renew my membership!

This must surely be the jewel in the crown for the caravan club, we arrived on the 5th of November and the site was still about a 1/3 full. As we came down the narrow lane (traffic light controlled) we were amazed by what can only be described as an absolutely stunning site as the sun glistened on the waters of loch Linnhe and backed up by the snow topped mountains. The site is well laid out so that all pitches get a good view and is kept immaculate by the ever friendly wardens. Facilities are spotless (and warm for the time of year). There is too much to do within easy travelling from this site to be able to list it all but I recommend anyone with a love for scenery, history or adventure to book up now before everyone finds out about this fantastic site. We are most definitely coming back

This site is just wonderful. The views are fabulous and you don't have to be in a lochside pitch either. We were in number 20 which is right at the back of the site and our view of the loch was just great. All hardstanding which is great for this time of year, lots of room for our car, caravan and our large awning.

The toilet facilities are kept to the usual caravan club standard and were warm on the cold mornings we had. There is a children's playpark area with good climbing frames. The walk at the very front of the site is good with quite a few benches to sit on and the walks around the area are really good as well.

The ferry is within walking distance of the site and if you are a foot passenger then there is no charge. The best place for groceries is Morrisons in Fort William. We had quite a few days out and the best was to the white sands at Morar, the rain even stayed off for a wee while when we had our lunch.

I would recommend the 'Ben Nevis Inn' for food and a great atmosphere. We will return to this site next spring and will be crossing our fingers for better weather.

What a amazing site, with great views across the loch, often fantastic sunsets and rainbows. Great area for walking and also near to Ferry ( much cheaper way of getting to Mull, than via Oban)

Site is well laid out, great facilities, washroom and toilets clean and warm. Local pub within 15 mins walk Fort William within 30 mins drive. Site owners really helpful, will hope to go again as most beautiful site with iconic views

Without a doubt this has to be the best Caravan Club site on the network.

Although it's been stated here that the loch side pitches are in demand, there were plenty available during the 2 weeks we were there. This was probably due to not being able to erect an awning on these pitches, plus the fact that all pitches have stunning views of the loch. We preferred to have an awning and had great views from pitch 54.

The one toilet and shower block was immaculate, with cleaning of the gents from 11:00 - 11:45 and the ladies from 11:45 - 12:30.

Access to the site is via a remote key fob which operates a security barrier and works very well. Access to the site with the fob is 24hrs a day. A traffic light system operates on the single lane entrance without any great problems, but the entrance straight off the main road can be a problem if a unit arrives too early. There's only enough room for one unit on any part of the entrance.

I'm not sure if my new tom tom had a glitch, but I put in the postcode and I ended up turning right off the main road, which was 200yds away from the entrance I should have taken. The entrance to this site is easily missed, it's right on a bend and care needs to be taken.

The main attraction from this site has to be the stunning location. The views of the mountains across the loch are truly breathtaking. We took the Corran ferry, which is 5 mins from the site, to the quiet roads across the loch and spent the whole day cycling along peaceful roads and taking frequent stops at stunning bays looking back along the Great Glen towards Ben Nevis. Just be aware that it's very remote and you'll be wise to pack a lunch and take drinks.

Fort William is only 10 mins away in the car and well worth a visit. The Nevis range is 5 mins further and well worth a visit, especially the gondalas that go up the mountain. For the fittest cyclist, you can take your mountain bikes, or hire them and go to the top of Nevis range and cycle (or throw yourself) down the world championship course. We'd rather watch, but we did see many fall off the super fast course and the ambulances were always in demand!

My only gripe about this site was the uselss wi-fi. It's expensive at £15 for 20hrs, but the connection was very poor. One evening I tried for 1. 5hrs to get on to different sites without success, yet was still charged. 3g was far better (which I pay £2 for 24 hrs!)i certainly won't be using the CC wi-fi facility again until they sort out this poor service.

We had 2 weeks at this site and we didn't have anywhere enough time to take in everything the area has to offer. We can't wait to return.

What a great location, right on the lochside and you don't need to be pitched on the front pitches to get a great view of the loch, pretty much every pitch has a loch view.

Wardens happy to let you move pitches the morning after arrival if you want to, no awnings allowed on the front pitches though. Toilets spotless and lovely warm showers.

The pub in the village at the entrance to the site served great food but also take a trip over on the Corran Ferry to the pub on the other side as that too was great. Easy to reach Fort William where a trip on the Jacobite steam train is a must.

The site was immaculate and would definitely return.

My only complaint would be that on two mornings I was woken by the bin men arriving on site at 7.30am and making plenty of noise collecting the rubbish,

Also the constant grass cutting which was happening during our four days at the site became frustrating as it was always during the late afternoon when you wanted to have a relax and a read of the paper and enjoy some peace and quite before an evening out.
