Reviewer: Trevor Banks 6 reviews from this member

 I loved this campsite. The facilities were excellent. The added bonus was the 'Black House' common room, which was a renovated small stone house located on the site.

Inside was a dining area, electric cooker, sink, sofas and an adjoining shower. This meant the site was rather like self catering while camping.

This common room would be an added bonus to spend time during the wet days.

The only drawback are the midges, but when in Scotland, that is to be expected.

I shall certainly return when next in the area and I highly recommend this campsite.

 Lovely, quirky campsite in a great location for exploring Harris. The campers' kitchen in an old Black house is really lovely and we were treated to live music on the Saturday night of our stay.

The view from the loo is truly unique!

Unless you're staying in a campervan / motorhome you definitely need to be fit to lug your stuff to and from the car, but the lack of vehicles on site just adds to the beauty of it.

I'd definitely say it's a better site for small backpacking tents than larger family tents. We stayed in the bell tent, which was really nice.

We stayed here as part of a week-long kayaking trip and it was a perfect base for the first part of our holiday - the paddle down Loch Stockinish is lovely on its own, but the coast is incredible!

 A wonderfully quirky site in which the owner has done everything possible to make the stay as tranquil as possible for everyone.

Set in the bays area of North Harris this was the polar opposite to the beach side sites we had been staying on and what a wonderful find it was.

 A delightful quirky ecofriendly site with equally friendly staff.

Good views out to Skye and live music on a Saturday night.

The midges quite like it here but so did we.

 Access to site down narrow winding road, and in high winds I found this quite scary. Our campervan pitch was down a slope which was slightly nerve racking as I noticed some wheelspin with our van when positioning.

The site itself is quirky in layout with tents in different sections, near the blackhouse. I found the paths to the shower/toilet block worrying as slippy to me but recovering from a recent fracture which didn't help.

Weather wet and windy so probably didn't see the site at its best.

Previous reviewer noted few sites in East Harris available so book well in advance.

Reviewer: Allan9 1 review from this member

 A place of real character run by welcoming and helpful owners.

In our book this is a "must stay" site if you appreciate a change.

Single track access roads should not be off-putting as there are numerous passing places.

 The Lickisto Camping & Yurts site is quirky, informal & well kept.

We were made very welcome by host Grieg who was able to upgrade us to an electrical hook-up after another customer changed their plans.

We would certainly visit again.

Reviewer: Louise 2 reviews from this member

 Loved the fact it was quirky and individual.

Toilets and showers were spotlessly clean.

Amazing pitches over looking the loch.

Friendly owners who were very helpful.

If you like manicured camping and caravan sites this is not for you. If you like organic individual natural sites - book it!

Reviewer: Claire 1 review from this member

 Greig replied to emails within an hour or so. They were full when we booked so we were offered the car park with no electric hook up but full use of facilities.

Thanks to a cancellation we got a pitch, which are really nicely sited on to the hill offering shelter, and many of the pitches are very disguised making it feel very different to a campsite.

It is just a lovely environmentally conscious camp. No chemicals are used so washing machine tablets are available from the house.

Blackhouse has kitchen facilities including microwave.

Showers clean and plenty of hot water.

Topped off by beautiful views of the loch from the camper and the dolphin pod visiting every night is awesome - loved it!

 Fabulous campsite with everything you need.

Greig and co were so friendly and welcoming and the communal facilities were great!

10/10 would definitely recommend!
