 What can be said about this little slice of paradise? Bliss!

Ok it’s a club site so quite heavy on rules which some of which could be taken away and let people use more common sense but the site is still magnificent!

Stunning view, clean quality facilities. We will be back.

Reviewer: Romastone 56 reviews from this member

 We’ve stayed here several times and is one of my favourite sites. The view over the loch is superb. Try and get a lochside pitch.

Due to Covid, there were some restrictions on the numbers allowed in the toilet area, and it seemed to work well, despite the site being full. The toilets and showers are always immaculate.

There is a nice walk up to a local waterfall and around the forest with even better views than the site. For food, the local restaurant was closed but on previous visits was okay.

You could always try getting the ferry over to Ardgour and having drinks and food there. The ferry is free for passengers and takes a couple of mins. Don’t miss the last ferry back!

Reviewer: Rothie Rovers 9 reviews from this member

 Can't fault the location of this campsite on the banks of Loch Linnhe but be aware of the limits of the site in these Covid times.

There are no provisions for sale on the site and the closest shop in Onich is closed for the rest of 2020.

Buses do run to Fort William but it is a reduced service so you really need access to a vehicle to drive to there (10 miles away) to do shopping. The A82 between Bunree and Fort William is not suitable for cycling. There are no cafes or restaurants open locally within walking distance.

The site is well managed for social distancing but one of the consequences of this is that only 3 people at a time are allowed in the toilet block and as there are approximately 100 pitches on site, queues can occur.

Reviewer: Paul@Bank 138 reviews from this member

 What an absolutely fantastic location! Site situated on edge of Loch Linnhe with magnificent views of the Highland Mountains to the North of Loch Linnhe. No wonder this site is fully booked throughout the year?

Usual C&MC standard for the facilities, although a tad dated. Site has large hardstanding pitches, good phone reception, TV and internet connection. Fort William 8 miles to the North East along the very busy A82 has Morrisons, Tesco, Aldi & Lidl supermarkets together with local shops and eateries.

Ferry 10 minutes’ walk from site, takes you to the Northern (quitter) side of Loch Linnhe and is free for foot passengers and bikes (£ 8. 50 for a car and passengers). Further 10 minute walk across A82 takes you to the start of the Inchree waterfall trail. A must visit involves the 20 mile circular tour around the nearby Loch Leven and Glencoe. Kinlochleven (at the top of Loch Leven) has a small but very informative museum telling the story of the Aluminium story in the area.

Lovely site for some peaceful r&r with delightful Loch & Mountain views – if you can get booked onto the site?

Reviewer: Gayle6 8 reviews from this member

 The recent wardens are absolutely lovely. Been holidaying at this site for approximately 9 years now.

Site is immaculate. Great play park for the kids. Access to the loch for kayaks etc.

All the usual services for tourers and motorhomes only. Great base for touring the area or staying put.

Plenty information available for surrounding area. Quiet at night and fabulous for star gazing in the autumn months.

Highly recommend.

 Stunning views, lovely well kept site. Toilet facilities very clean as expected from a caravan club site. We pitched at the top slightly elevated part of the site which gave a good view. Dog walk down near the river, motorhome service point.

 I don't think we have ever stayed at a campsite with a better view than that found at Bunree - it is stunning!

Staying here was a little indulgence on our part during our honeymoon tour of Scotland, its not a cheap place to stay, although we were given a discount as we were on our honeymoon - which was a lovely touch.

The site is exceptionally well kept, the pitches on the loch side all benefit from breathtaking views across Loch Linnhe, pitches are well spaced and the facilities block is well placed in the middle of the site.

Toilets and showers were kept very clean, and there were plenty of showers and loos, no queuing here.

Reviewer: Ouncy2 26 reviews from this member

 Just had a week at Bunree, the site is typical of C&MC very clean and tidy with excellent staff, we were warned that midges can be a real problem during July and was recommended to use Skin So Soft from Avon Cosmetics but we had very little problems with them.

One gripe is the cost of the internet service which we could have done with for a day or two but at £2.50 per day and on all accounts poor speeds, we gave it a miss and waited until we were on a CL site back in England where it was excellent & free!

Site costs continue to rise year by year and at £29 per night for a unit + 2 adults, it is more than enough and we have found CL's on the circuit with lovely facilities near to or less than half that price.

Reviewer: Sandgrounder52 12 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for 2 separate visits, breaking the journey from NW England to the Scottish Highlands.

I really can't think of a single thing to complain about. The site is nicely laid out. Even though we weren't on the front row we had a good view of the loch. Everywhere is neat and well maintained. The views are to die for.

Although I had visited Fort William before, I was surprised how much there is to do there. We only managed walking, a trip up the Nevis gondola and a round of the Treetop Adventure but there were many other activities we would like to have undertaken with sufficient time. There is a lovely walk around the Inchree waterfalls direct from the site.

Fort William has all the shops, supermarkets etc you might want. We didn't eat out this time but there seemed to be plenty of opportunity (including a restaurant recommended by the site which is within walking distance).

Classic C&MHC. All required facilities provided, everything works, everything is spotlessly clean. The site is easy to get to and the wardens we spoke to were all lovely. What's not to like?

Reviewer: Paulgdolman 5 reviews from this member

 Lovely manicured site as expected with the caravan and Motorhome club, but we found the site too cramped and as if parked in a car park with no or very little room to sit outside.

Fine if you want to peer at Lock Linnie through your window?

The other issue causing us to decide to leave after our first day of the booked three, was the terrible wifi system that the club has adopted which is a pay as you go system but could not access and after an hour of trying gave up.

Facilities all up to the usual clubs standards a nice pub / restaurant with free wifi across the road which saved the day for us in planning the rest of our tour of the highlands

Reviewer: Swapeman 13 reviews from this member

 Although an excellent site from almost every aspect, the site is badly let down by the club in having the most abysmal WiFi reception I can ever remember encountering.

The Caravan and Motorhome Club must surely realise the growing importance placed upon internet communications today, yet I was not able once, during the whole of my stay, to get a connection, even between midnight and 7 am. ! I personally will make the availability, reliability and cost of WiFi connection a major factor when choosing a site and, in fact, a club.

The Caravan and Motorhome Club must surely realise the importance of this issue and the fact that they will lose bookings if it is not addressed, and quickly.

 We drove past Bunree CMC sites a few years ago, and my wife fell in love with it - a camp site literally sat on the loch shore. Now that we have at last been able to stay there, it has not disappointed. The views are to die for, especially on a warm, sunny evening when it stays light until eleven o'clock. It also lovely and peaceful.

The campsite itself is well-maintained, with a well-appointed central amenities block. There are a few things that could be improved. For example, it could do with a few more water taps around the site (and the low pressure means it can take an eternity to fill an aquaroll). And, being a large site, the internet speed can slow to a crawl during the evenings when everybody is piling onto it.

The main shopping facilities can be found at Fort William, ten miles away (with cheap fuel available at the Morrisons superstore).

Otherwise, the site is handy for exploring the Western Highlands - including if you wish to scale Ben Nevis. And if you're a cyclist, the best rides can be found by boarding the nearby Corran ferry for the short voyage to the opposite side of Loch Linnhe, where the roads are much quieter and the scenery just as awesome. Foot passengers and their bikes can travel FREE.

Just make sure you make the last nine o'clock ferry back otherwise you are in for a very long and lonely cycle ride back indeed!

 A few years since we visited this site, nothing has really changed.

We were lucky to get a loch side pitch, no more expensive but you can't put out an awning. Glorious views over the loch to the mountains. On the downside every dog walker heading for the beach seemed to think it was fine to walk across our pitch to the beach - there was a marked path but why use that when it was 10 seconds quicker to use our pitch.

The facilities are usual CC standards in terms of clean but are looking a bit tired. Water pressure was very poor in showers. One day no hot water so when reception opened at 9am we let wardens know - they said no one had told them earlier (when they were closed?).

We did find wardens friendly and helpful, they work tirelessly on site keeping it clean and tidy.

The main plus for us here is the proximity to Corran Ferry, free for walkers and cyclists with a lovely pub where the ferry docks. The quiet B road follows the loch down to Fort William where you can get another passenger ferry over to town.

Having not used this site for a few years we have found there are other sites within a couple of miles offering loch side pitches, all charge £23 for 2 adults with ehu, we would try these before using Bunree again.

 We arrived on this site in the middle of June for five nights. We booked this pitch months in advance as this site is so popular, our pitch was right in the front with lovely views of the river and mountains.

The weather could of been better, but it is Scotland. A really well kept site, lovely clean toilets, which we have come to expect from the caravan club. Only a short 20 minute drive north takes you to Fort William, with lots to see and do, near by are the locks called Neptune's staircase which is the start of Loch Ness.

Anyway this site is really worth a visit, but remember, book early.

 Fairly average CC site. Staff friendly, facilities good - did a pile of washing here!

Lovely views across the loch. Only downside for us was not finding anywhere decent to walk the dogs, but I see a June 15 review detailing what sounds like a good walk.

Would we go back? Yes probably after doing a bit more research about local walks - we were on;y there for a single night
