 Stayed in this site for the second year running and it was excellent. We even managed to get the same pitch. The setting is amazing so it has a head start on most other places but, in addition to this, the facilities on the site are ideal. The toilet/shower blocks are kept very clean and there are plenty of them. There is a caravan selling teas/coffees and hot rolls which were not too expensive - very handy when you don't want to cook. We also used the laundry room and it was very reasonably priced. Whilst we were there we found that there was little or no noise after around 10.30 which was a very big plus. Only negative is the midgies and there's not much anyone can do about them!

Great site , great views of the Ben , showers and toilets - no complaints - always clean - always hot water. Shop well stocked , nice restaurant up the road . Have been 5 times and will be back as sure as eggs is eggs. With regards to the Crabbit warden , get zombied long before 10 pm and you'll be a-ok

Hi, I would like tell every one this is the best site in scotland if not the whole of the UK , its fantastic very clean and you can take your dogs no problems, I am also registard dissabled and I had my own key to my own toilet / shower room which was very clean and well looked after I can recomend this site to anyone 10/10 for me and the family. Plus stunning views and plenty of things to do and they have a stunning resturaunt which is fantastic.
No chance of lots of drunk parties keeping you up all night, it's well policed by the people that work there. I can say 100% I will be back 3 or 4 times this season. Colin W.

Great site, magnificent views, friendly people. only stayed one night but enjoyed every minute. There's a good walk if you continue down the road that leads to a waterfall down the mountain, we wish we'd took our bikes it was a 4.5mile walk from the car park where we left the car. the modern pub on site does excellent food and has a great atmosphere. Will stay there again but for longer next time.

Arrived on a beautiful sunny day in September and the views are awesome. I had read other views but Ben Nevis is practically right outside your tent. It is a lovely glen with many walks around. Also a great location for seeing the W Coast of Scotland. The shop is very well equiped especially the chilled wine after a day out.
Would really recommend this site - lots of interesting people coming and going, walkers, hikers, climbers, canoeists...
The shower blocks fine and relatively clean - could have done with more than 1 clean a day and I have seen cleaner showers - as muddy walking boots going in and out soon adds up as it is such a big campsite. Overall one of the best locations I have stayed in.

I first visited this site in 1973 with my parents!! It's a cracking site regardless of whether you are on foot or in a car. The facilties are first class. Fort William is a 2 mile walk away and mountains galore. The shop is very good, but it's cheaper in the town. The bar / restaurant is spot on but beware...smoking is banned!!!! Tents and tin snails ( caravans ) are segregated but beware of the midges from late May onwards. There is no known cure apart from chemical warfare suits!

One of the best sites we've stayed at. Very reasonable prices. Separate caravan / motorhome (hard-standings) and tent areas. Nicely divided up with trees, shrubs, hedges etc so one did not feel one was on such a large site. Very good scullery, showers (free), laundry etc. The tumble drier was especially useful as it rained continuously while we were there. Fortunately the gale that was blowing kept the midgies away!!
Small play area for kids. Walks up Ben Nevis or along the Glen direct from site. There is a Morrisons in Fort William if the site shop does not fulfil your needs. The only downside was, for campers, there is no sheltered area for cooking, which was a problem for several people during the inclement weather we experienced.

We stayed here for 6 nights and it was fantastic!
Very clean facilities, including hair dryers (but you could also take your own). Decent sized sculleries and a laundry, if needed (we didn't use it). Washing tablets were on sale in the well stocked shop.
The shop was well equipped for most things that you'd need whilst camping, including mozzie repellent and candles! Very handy........ They also sold a good little book detailing walks around the area, all starting from the campsite.
We used the on-site restaurant on the last night. It wasn't flash but it was good value for what we got (especially when compared to other places we'd seen).
We'll definitely be back!

This is the first time we had been to this site and we were totally impressed.
Toilets were extremely clean, camp site relaxed and suitable for all.
The views were excellent,
Would certainly recommend that you visit.
There was no noise after 11pm at night, which all in attendance adhered to. So good night sleep to be had by all.

A very big site with well organised and clean facilities - plenty of showers and toilets.
We didn't book and were welcomed at reception with no problem and told we could camp in all but one of the fields which sounded great BUT the camping fields were absolutely packed and we tried to leave a reasonable gap around our tent. We were shocked to then discover someone else squeezing into what was a now non-existent gap between us and the next tent - overlapping guys. This meant we had to keep our dog on a very short lead in the tent mostly.
A great place for a night which is all we had but not a full 'holiday'.
Excellent bacon roll from the van in the morning

Have been six times going again in August. Always enjoyed our stay. Scenery breathtaking, if you like peaceful sites this is the one for you.
Lovely town of fort william nearby, always going to try somewhere else but just keep coming back, love it.
Haven't eaten in campsite, meant to be expensive, as we have a caravan we go shopping at the supermarket in fort william. There is also a Macdonalds, a chip shop in Caol is worth a visit.
We also visited skye and mallaig which are beautiful.

Booked this site in advance and paid £2 admin charge - thought this was a bit unfair when we found our field was the far end of the site - however, when we realised our field was nearly empty and the fields for those who just turned up were full we changed our minds - so book in advance its worth the £2!
The site is well equipped and is located in beautiful scenery. There are picnic tables dotted around which you can use and plenty of water/bin areas so you don't have to trail too far with your rubbish.
The shower/toilet block is modern, bright, clean with shower and sink cubicles. There is also a laundry, well stocked shop and snack van. Just at the end of the site there is a bar/restarant where you can get a drink and a meal.
There were a few groups of people on our field (scouts, school groups etc) but they were really quite and we didn't have any problems getting in the showers even though the site was busy.
This was a really nice site to stay at and I would happily stay there again if we return to Fort William area.

Have just returned from a touring holiday including 4 days at the Glen Nevis Campsite. This site is in the beautiful Glen Nevis looking up at the hills including Ben Nevis. Its very difficult to explain how beautifully situated this site is.
The sites are spacious and well laid out.
The facilites are excellent. I do however question why in the washing up room two sinks were for pots and two for cloths when there was in fact a separate laundry room. I never saw the sinks for cloths only used but did queue more than once to wash up.
Weather was brilliant sunshine which alway makes for a good holiday and it does help to keep the midges away. Day three brought some rain which didn't bother us but wish we could say the same for the midges it brought with it. Anyone know a repellent that actually works?

Have visited this site a few times before and always enjoy going back. Scenery is amazing and lots to do in Fort William. If you have kids there is ten pin bowling and an big indoor soft play at the An Aird leisure complex next to Brewers Fayre. There is also a swimming pool and other facilities in Fort William. Plenty of lovely walks in the glen too. This time we were climbing Ben Nevis. Arrived on a beautiful friday evening and staff at reception were very nice and chatty and it was quite busy with lots of walkers checking in. Sign at reception says that this is a quiet site for walkers and families and not for you if you want a party atmosphere. Despite this we found ourselves near to three women who were drinking and shouting and making a noise. They later joined forces with a group of men and although it is meant to be all quiet after 11pm the music was still playing well after that. We never seen any wardens patrolling that night at all. Spent saturday climbing Ben Nevis and three days later as I'm writng this I still can't walk! Well worth it though. Saturday night was very quiet on site - everyone was exhausted from climbing! Will definitely be going back to this site but don't know if I'll ever climb Big Ben again!

This is my favourite campsite in the World! I've stayed here 3 times and will be back in 2005
Having made it to the summit of Ben Nevis with my sister and our 4 dogs,it was great to know that our beds were at the bottom of the mountain!
The scenery is spectacular, the site spotless, on site facilities are excellent - shop, restaurant, bar, staff friendly and helpful.
What could be more exhilerating than to undo the zip of your tent at dawn and watch the low cloud sweep over the mountains? The calls of birds soaring above you, and in the knowledge that the day could mean hours of walking without seeing another person?
Fort William may be small, but has great little shops, along with the usual supermarket and fast food outlets.
For those who would like a bit of nostalgia or for those who have Harry Potter fans in the family, the steam train excursion to Mallaig is a must!
It's my number one!
