We stayed for 5 nights at this site. There was no-one around when we arrived but we received a warm welcome from the owner when he returned home. The serviced pitches are excellent, hard standing and fairly level with good views from most pitches although little shelter if the weather is windy.
Showers are extra with varying prices from £1 down to £0. 40 - not sure why or what the difference was! Laundry facilities are available at reasonable cost.
Interesting area from which to tour the island. My only adverse comment is that the showers would benefit from a good clean.

WOW ! What fantastic improvements at this family run site. Great additional shower block absolutely marvellous. And the charge for the 'luxury' showers is well worth it and despite this charge the overall nightly fee is extremely reasonable. The additional hardstanding with own dedicated water tap and the provision for drainage really spoils you. No need for water barrels being constantly filled. Again a very warm welcome and an open barbecue for any takers as is the case whenever I visit this site. Please take the time to visit this site if you are ever clever enough to take the time and Visit Scotland, Especially the outer Hebrides.

We (two girls) staid there for three nights. The welcome was very friendly, the tidiness of the shower and toilet were excellent. Also the kitchen and the living room were perfect.
The pitch on a plastform was very big and we enjoyed the landscape and the country life very much. We will return (hopefully with nicer neighbours who did ignore us). An ideal place with wonderful campsite owners - highly recommend.

We stayed at this site for a single night - we were based for a fortnights holiday down on North Uist and wanted to do a two day trip up to Lewis & Harris, so the tent for the night it was! On arrival there was nobody manning the reception, so we found a spot (the grass area for tents doesn't have numbered pitches) and pitched - just as we finished the owners turned up and we were given a lovely warm welcome and reassured that this was the right thing to do!
Facilities are basic but immaculately clean - 2 toilets and a single shower per section in the main block (Nicknamed 'Downing Street' - the ladies use No. 11, the gents is No. 10!) plus extra facilities on the other side of the courtyard. The washing up area and small kitchen is a nice touch - complete with a small stove labelled for general use 'So long as you clean it afterwards!'. There is also a small sitting area, and a laundry room.
We were slightly stumped by an earlier review on here claiming that there were 'no views' from this site - to the contrary, although not a sea view (and bearing in mind its location, you wouldn't expect this!) the views out over the surrounding countryside are very pleasant indeed.
A nice little site - we would certainly be happy to return.

We stayed here as a base to activities along the north part of the Island, and options for other campsites are limited on Lewis. We had a warm welcome to the site, which is a converted garden, so quite compact and we were quite close to other units. The facilities were very dated, and although clean are in need of updating. Simple things like one of toilets has clear glass window with just an ill-fitted net curtain at the window which doesn't feel very private, especially when it is dark and the light is on. The showers are an additional charge. We used this as a convenient stop-off but quickly moved on once we had seen things of interest in this area.

We stayed here for 7 nights and were made very welcome indeed. Nothing was too much trouble and the whole family were very friendly.
There were several hardstanding pitches, grass pitches, electric hookups. This was a compact site with a campers kitchen, rest area, laundry, shower and toilets.
Milk was for sale and papers were available to order. Facilities were adequate and clean.
The site provided a good base for exploring Lewis with a lovely quiet beach within a mile - best to walk or cycle.
Nearest shop approx one mile away; dog walk on site. We would certainly revisit.
