 Lovely level clean site and facilities.

Great location to see Dolphins after a pleasant walk next to a golf course to the lighthouse at the end of the headland.

Would definitely recommend.

 Fortrose Bay campsite is just lovely. It's small and peaceful, with wonderful views over the Moray Firth.

Rachel, the owner, was very kind, and couldn't be more helpful.

The loos are absolutely fine, and there's plentiful hot water for showers.

The site is very dog friendly and around a 15 minute walk takes you to the famed Chanonry point, where we watched bottlenose dolphins just about every day! In the other direction,

A 15/20 minute walk takes you into picturesque Fortrose.

All in all - very lovely!

 Lovely site,

Staff very helpful and will show you to your pitch which will overlook the Moray Firth,

Came here to show my wife Dolphins, as she didn't believe they existed, even though I have filmed them many times whilst sailing, thankfully a pod showed up so that put that one to rest.

 Beach front site, facilities very well kept. Lovely owners. Large level pitches.

Really peaceful apart from one night but you can't pick your new neighbours on a campsite.

Lovely walks on the peninsula, great golf links next door if your into that kind of thing.

Nothing to dislike.

Will be returning.

Reviewer: Scotslass42 2 reviews from this member

 This is one of our favourite sites and becoming a regular stop over on our way home to the North East of Scotland when touring the West Coast.

The pitches at the shore front are spacious and have the most fantastic view, can be a little windy but to be expected at the waters edge, it's only a short walk along the path at the golf course to Channonry Point.

The dolphins are proving elusive on our visits, turning up just after we leave.

The staff are very friendly and helpful,

The facilities were good and clean when we visited,

No food shop on site but there is one in the village which is a lovely walk up past Fortrose Abbey.

Great walks and loved seeing the dolphins.

Couple who run the site very friendly and always on hand to help.

Reviewer: Truediamond 129 reviews from this member

 A slightly unusual location, this is a linear with the pitches are on either side of a road and face onto the Moray Firth on one side and a housing estate on the other.

We had a pitch facing the sea and as close as we've ever been to it. Stepping out of the van, in about 6 steps you were on the shore.

We were asked to park in the middle of our pitch for cover separation, slightly spoilt when the neighbouring caravan put the car about 1 m from our window.

We were well away from reception and the new showers/toilets. Ours were very clean but a bit old fashioned.

We walked along to Chanonry Point and the dolphins duly made an appearance. Pricing was very reasonable.

 Delightful quiet relaxed site. Facilities very clean.

Great location and an easy walk to see dolphins, no midges a bonus.

Will visit again.

Small co-op in town and IV10 worth a visit.

Reviewer: Bellringer18 10 reviews from this member

 Brilliant site, very well kept and clean, showers basic I hate a shower curtain but clean and hot water.

Rachel owner very friendly as was young lady cleaning the showers.

Had front pitch right on water's edge. Never been to Black Isle part of Scotland what a gem, we have booked for next year.

Rated facilities a 9 because of poor internet which you have to pay for only site in years of caravanning we had to.

 The staff were superb from the minute we arrived until we left. Very helpful with any questions.

The place itself very clean and tidy.

The shack showers are the best on site as they have 2. The views were breathtaking.

Many thanks and looking forward to returning next year.

I put zero for child friendless as we didn't have any kids with us.

Thanks

Reviewer: PEDRO JUANES 2 reviews from this member

 The site is ideally situated on the waterside in Fortrose, peaceful and flat with the owners being very helpful,

Easy access with only one narrow bit just off the main road, the rest is easy.

Basic (no shop, but local shops 5 minutes away) but clean and tidy,

Sit by the water or walk around the peninsula to see dolphins (sometimes)

Reviewer: Daveca 17 reviews from this member

 Stunning location with great walks from the site.

Very friendly and helpful staff with some welcome extra services such as a visiting fresh fish van (with pre-orders).

But don't know why some sites like this can't make the effort to have toilets/ showers open during covid. Others did very effectively.

Probably brilliant normally.
