 We booked our stay based on the glowing reviews, but we didn't enjoy it. If you use all your own facilities (we don't) and are put near the front, I can see why it scores highly.
It's a huge site, over 300 pitches in 14 rows at the airport end - maybe the 120 pitches listed in the UKCS Directory are for touring. Some pitches are generously spaced, but we could touch the car next door out of our lounge window.
We were put in (mostly seasonal) Area 1 with four rows (3 shown on the site map), 12 rows back from the shore, sea views blocked by seasonal caravans and the trees along the former railway (Sustrans cycle route Oban to Fort William, handy for dog walking), and woken by road noise at 0600.
Thankfully, we were allowed to move to another Area after a few days, or else we'd have left early. However, it's unlikely we'll come back for other reasons:
No Wi-fi, not even to buy. Apart from the motion sensor showers, we did not like the facilities in either Block. No ventilation: no opening windows (our next site had midge & moth mesh behind its open windows), no extractor fan, so the air changed only when the door was opened, the mirrors were running with steam in the morning.
Given Covid guidelines for good ventilation, we were uneasy. Multiple & duplicated rule posters (no hair dye, no rollerskates. ). No sanitary bins, no nappy bin, no disposal bags either - meaning used hygiene products went into a swing bin out in the sink area. And it's a long trek to do the dish washing if you're at either end of the site.
Hourly bus into Oban, but check the afternoon return times: they seem erratic. Great fresh seafood hut near the station - we got scallops and mussels to cook for ourselves. Great views from McCaig's Tower. Big Tesco by an Aldi. Had the best fish n chips ever at a cafe endorsed by Rick Stein. A day trip to Mull as foot passengers is fun.
In the other direction, there's a great network of paths and cycle trails in the forestry at Sutherland's Grove, just past the CCC walled garden site at Benderloch.

We enjoyed our sunny week at the campsite. Loved being so close to the water.
Loved Oban.
Loved Ben Nevis.
Loved our Seafari boat trip.
EE 4G signal was very good on-site and just about everywhere around Oban.
Oban is about a 10mins drive away. You get 3hours free in the Tesco car park. Park near the click and collect area and you are 2 mins walk from the harbour. Parking isn't a pleasant experience in Oban.
Nice pubs and restaurants.
Our pitch was spotless and about 5 vans from the toilet block and 3 rows back from the beach. Ideal.
The shop/office is well stocked and clean enough but is a bit dark and dingy. Needs some new lights up.
The toilet/shower block is clean and well laid out with good flowing showers.
Things I couldn't help but notice.
The extraction system in the shower block has obviously failed and has not worked correctly for a while. You can see the moisture has started to rot the Velux roof-light frames.
The failing hand dryer needs replacing as it makes a lot of noise but has no power.
Trees and bushes are overgrowing and going to seriously damage the canopy next to the toilet block.
The entrance to the campsite is like a scrap yard. Scrap cars outside the shop entrance and in the car park.
Saying all that, it didn't spoil our visit and I would definitely return.

Lovely big site with great views. Staff friendly and organised and man in van that took us to our pitch is a busy man.
Very clean site as are shower blocks.
Great walks in the area and we will definitely be going back to this site again - highly recommended.

This was my second visit and was well impressed. Friendly booking in and so helpful giving me the exact site I wanted.
Everything is spotless and well organised with all the facilities I needed.
This was my second visit and will not be my last.
Wonderful location and a great stop over site or holiday stay.
I highly recommend this caravan site!

Lovely site. Had a pitch facing Mull over locking the bay. The sun set is beautiful. Pitch was large but confused as to why you can't park your car next to the awning.
Could do with a smaller toilet block on site 2 at the very end. The block however was clean.
Nothing much for children to do on site.
Highly recommend the site and we will be back.

Nice large pitch with lovely view to Mull.
As an affiliated site with the Caravan Club why do you park your car on wrong side as 90% of British sites and European sites park your car next to your awning?
The refurbished toilet block could have been a lot cleaner and two days after the COVID restrictions were lifted there was no hand sanitizer available. What was there was empty.
For the size and layout of the site it desperately requires a third toilet block as a lot of pitches are miles away. Having to take the car to toilet block is ridiculous.
Wardens seem oblivious to 10mph speed limit.

Big open site with views of the bay and across to Mull.
Reception friendly and shown to pitch by warden.
Pitches spacious and easy access to the beach.
Facilities were fine
EHU only 10A but didn't cause us a problem.

We normally favour club sites, but neither club had availability we booked this site. We weren't disappointed, this is a first rate site.
Pitches are well spaced, with only a slight slope and water and bins within easy distance.
Chemical toilet emptying is sparse, we were told there were two, but only found one in the main shower/ toilet block.
Given the size of this site the showers and toilets never felt busy. Also it is an amazingly quiet site for it's size.
Perfect base for touring the area, with plenty of shopping in nearby Oban.
We would not hesitate to use this site again.

Travelled with our daughter and Granddaughter. Brilliant site for all ages. We had two vehicles an 8mt caravan and an awning and had loads of space around us.
The view to the sea was perfect. The shower and toilet facilities were immaculate and always maintained. The staff were all helpful and could be called upon if help was needed.
The only complaint was that the sign on the main road for the site is not easily noticed until you are upon the entrance.
A sign at the opposite side of the road pointing across to the entrance could be beneficial. Will be staying there again for sure.
Highly recommend it.

Can't fault the site. The warden was very helpful in getting us on a front row pitch.
The views out to Mull are to die for.
The site itself is well maintained and for such a large site there seemed to still be an ambience similar to a small site.
Only downside is the hike to the toilet block. We couldn't have been further from the toilets but I wouldn't have swapped my front row for the world.
Can't wait to return 10/10

We had to cut our booked 7 night visit (booked a few months ago) short due massive storm forecast where we live in the Hebrides so wishing to avoid the 45-60 mph gales forecast on our 150 mile drive home northwards we left North Ledaig having quite frankly enjoyed our 6 night visit.
We tow a SWIFT Challenger 645 a large rig touring caravan. The Pitch we were allocated 3209, had glorious views towards Mull without restriction.
The North Ledaig site is HUGE. Many, many permanent caravans on their plots for long periods allowing (presumably) their owners from relatively nearby to return to stay as and when they can.
In late October the weather of course which we expected wasn’t great and the site facilities were closed due Covid so had to be self sufficient. We were fairly close to fresh water Supply and grey water waste disposal and had an electric hook up, but the chemical disposal facilities were a long Long long walk away in poor Wet weather to empty our cassettes.
Also rubbish And waste disposal was even further away (due the owners attempts o ensure Covid compliance so useful to have a large self storage for waste to avoid the many hikes to dispose of litter and bottles
The site has no WiFi and we couldn’t get a television signal despite several days of trying (Other vans and mobile home seemed to manage) so it was 6 days in isolation.
Daily mobile homes and camper vans arrive depart on one-night stays, so despite many empty caravans there are lots of movements.
One of (the only three) chemical disposal units was fetid and overflowing, so always a challenge to find one that worked. The site shop is good And carries a large stock of essentials but being run down We thought due site closing a week after we left for non members.
Our pitch itch was awkward to set up. Being on a steep slope but we used stones rocks etc to put under the caravan legs at the front. So a well liked sire of long standing clearly for so many people. Covid closures and the size of the site for a long stay mean you have to compromise.
The view despite a week of Very wet weather made up for the many discrepancies though. We managed daily walks with our to dogs along the old railway line nowpart of the Caledonian Way Route no 78 in both directions and the beach is excellent for walks.
Dog poo containers were kept empty to allow deposits for our poo bags Along the perimeters of the site along the old railway line.
The site is elderly and clearly very popular - it is in great need of updates in these competitive times and has seen better days BUT we had a good six days there. And know the Argyll area well.
We suspect in summer it is very, very busy and imagine were the site facilities ro be open, which they are currently not, that they may need enlarging if and when COVID ever leaves our lives.
We would return but would hope that necessary update improvements are made. The children’s playground which we didn’t need was of course, not having children was closed but the beach is always nearby. We had to park our car in a specific place On the other side of the caravan away from the awning and entrance - not helpful in the very very wet week we had since our dogs sleep in the car and we couldn’t park it alongside the caravan opening or awning due site rules.
We understand though that rules have to be made and adhered to which we did. Wardens patrol and drive around the huge site in their cars all the time ensuring compliance and safety security

Very good clean site - well organised with covid restrictions.
Amazing views from the site. Lovely long beach to walk along.
Unfortunately our weather was mixed but we still had a lovely relaxing few days.
Can't wait to go back in the summer to enjoy the view and sunsets.
