Date of Visit: July 2009 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Zippy2009 1 review from this member

 Great little site.

Owners very helpful and friendly, even when we arrived on one of the busiest summer days and personally showed us to our pitch and location of all the facilities. Toilets and showers spotless.

Nice views and good base for visiting the island.

Shops only minutes walk away with reasonable choice. Definitely one to recommend, hope to return soon.

 Just returned from 5 nights on this site. The site is brilliant, well run and very friendly ( let us borrow a gas regulator as ours was leaking).

The village is really handy to walk to and has 3 shops, a Post Office and a couple of cafe/shops. The Misty Isle Hotel let us take the dog into the public bar on a wet midgy evening and made us welcome. Dunvegan Castle is a really good place to visit.

Plenty of dog walks, along the beach and along the road.

Reviewer: GBBOO66 1 review from this member

 Great location for exploring Skye - Local amenities nearby inc bakery, grocers and garage. Would recommend 'The Old School' restaurant, excellent food and service - booking advisable. Janns cake shop looks impressive but the cakes are a little overated and pretty expensive.

We stayed in a tent, not too many level pitches available, excellent views and the guy who runs it is really helpful. No shop on site so remember to buy milk locally for that all important cuppa.

Main criticism the facilities ie shower block and toilets need to be updated, only one hairdryer in the ladies showers! A new roof would be recommended as its not exactly water tight when is p***ing down. The facilities are however very clean, despite the gathering of spiders above the entrance door!

The wonderful sunsets and spectacular views throughout Skye are breathtaking, well worth a visit.

PS: bring your waterproofs

 Stayed here towards the end of July. Been here before and would definitely use it again. It has nice views along the adjacent sea loch.

The guy who runs the site is very helpful and friendly.

The facilities were clean - although beware, they close for a set period during the day for cleaning.

The site is close to a shop, pub, cafe and petrol station. Although the pump prices were the most I've paid for petrol in a long time! 


Date of Visit: July 2009 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Boyd1 1 review from this member

 Nice little site. We arrived on spec and the manager could not have been any more helpful, I hoped for three nights but they could only give us 2. Not their fault the site is very popular. The facilities are quite basic but very clean, the guys in charge are very nice and eager to help and offer advice. The views are breathtaking.

I would recommend a visit to Neist point (just along the road from the site). Not only good for fishing but the kids and I got some close up views of Minke whales as the swam past 20ft off shore. The giant MaCaskill museum in Dunvagen is also worth poping into, the owner is a very friendly guy who it turns out is not only related to the giant but also Danny MaCaskill's dad (see you tube).

Reviewer: Slaphead1951 9 reviews from this member

 This is a great site with good facilities.

Staff were helpful and friendly.

We were pitched with wonderful sea views and relaxed as soon as we got sorted out. Quite windy when we were there, but maybe this kept the midges away.

Had a meal at the Old School restaurant in the village, which was very good. The castle was well worth a visit,too.

Good site for exploring Skye.

Reviewer: Truediamond 129 reviews from this member

 Lar views from the head of Dunvegan Loch? Clean showers and toilet blocks with a well run site and helpful owner? Plenty to do if you're active or just want to tour round? We spent 4 nights here earlier in the month with our motorhome and came away very impressed.

We had a pitch right on the edge of the Loch with fabulous views and, as we didn't move the van were able to retain it for all our stay. If you go off site, you really need to reserve your preferred spot or someone will have it.

With shops, pubs & restaurants in nearby Dunvegan, getting supplies was no problem. The wonderful Three Chimneys restaurant is ~4 miles away and taxis can be arranged easily ( but you must book well in advance)

The number of hook ups might be limited in high season so at least a phone call then to check out availability is probably worthwhile. 


Date of Visit: September 2008 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Petehargreaves 2 reviews from this member

 Stayed here just over 1 week, staff were friendly and helpful, site is well maintained, as are the facilities, toilets and showers were always clean, good supplies of hot water in both.

Site is sloping, with some level spots, well drained, and has a really excellent view across and down the loch.

About 10 mins walk takes you into Dunvegan, excellent bakery/cafe at the end of the lane, with take away food, hot and cold, the bread and cakes are really good! The Cellar bar in the village allows dogs which is good.
The site is about 10 mins drive from Dunvegan Castle, family seat of the Clan McCleod, well worth a visit, and there are lots of walks in the area. If you are an angler, there are a lot of rivers, lochs etc and there is tackle available in Dunvegan, and locals are always ready to give advice on the 'best' spots.

Reviewer: Stokelad 4 reviews from this member

 Visited the site with 2 other couples. Views were stunning. The weather was wet and gale force but it did not deter us, we survived the weather for seven days. The owner and friends who meet at reception are excellent, helped to make our stay very enjoyable, especially at night whilst having a wee dram with them. We found the owner was very helpful with all situations. We have never before found such a relaxed site.
Facilities very clean constant hot water in showers. Great cooking shelter which we used when weather wet on an evening also good place to meet fellow campers.
The village is 10 minute walk away has well stocked shops,the bakery is also the fish and chip shop food is good but do not rely on their opening hours. Janns cakes and the fruit and nut shop worth a visit. We had a meal at the old school house restaurant which we highly recommend though booking is advisable.
The cellar bar at the Dunvegan hotel allows dogs. Our overall view, despite the weather, was a brilliant site definitely worth another visit. 


Date of Visit: August 2008 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: WD Jones 2 reviews from this member

 This is the best site we have used so far. The facilities were excellent, the location and aspect superb, the prices reasonable and, most of all, the staff were nice, friendly and helpful. Everything about the place smacks of courtesy and consideration.
The showers and wash basins are located in a separate room from the WCs, which is a nice touch. The views of McLeod's Tables and Loch Dunvegan are stunning, especially at sunset.
The site's location is good for most of Skye's attractions, but it is a large island and unless you are aiming to stay in one place, you'll rack up the mileage. If you have children, don't miss a walk to the Fairy Pools at Coire na Creche, off the road to Glenbrittle.

 I arrived at 6pm on a wet & windy Saturday night. I was welcomed into the reception and after a discussion I was advised of the best place to pitch the tent and park my motorbike. The site owner was very helpful & even offered to charge my mobile free of charge.
The toilet block was spotlessly clean, despite the heavy rain and the site was immaculate. Beautiful views across the bay, fantastic site for getting away from the hustle & bustle of life. I hope to be able to go back there one day soon.

Reviewer: Megolodon 17 reviews from this member

 Fantastic location with amazing views.

Campsite full of characters which made for a good holiday.

Very friendly site and town also very friendly.

Look out for Zeus (the cat - very friendly)!

Toilet block clean enough but not caravan club standard by any means!

Showers - 4 or 5 of them for women - don't know about men. Shower curtain/door had us very confused!

Pitch requires rock pegs.

Town has restaurants, health clinic, pubs/hotels, post office, petrol garage, bakery and general convenience store.

Good location for visiting the other parts of the island.

Can really recommend this site for a quiet and relaxing holiday.

Reviewer: Happy campers14 4 reviews from this member

 Campsite set in beautiful surroundings, we pitched our tent near the edge of the loch and had stunning views. Man in charge very helpful and friendly. Toilets and showers very clean and water hot. There isnt anything for kids to do but we had a ball and some games that we played but my 9 year old daughter was happy sitting soaking up the view. The village has a well stocked shop, the night we were there we had intended having a bbq but the food hadnt defrosted so we went out( had bbq in Uig next day), I wouldnt reccomend the misty isle hotel, expensive for what you get on your plate, my husband had the added extra of a massive bone in his curry! The campsite cant be faulted and we'd definitely stay there again
