 Amazing views and close to water, 45 minutes walk away from fort william, 5 miles away from ben nevis cable cars.
Due to the covid 19 cleaning was a high priority in this site. Cleaning the toilets and shower blocks a lot.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Had an amazing 2 days here walking up to the views and the peaceful atmosphere

What a lovely clean site staff were very friendly and shower blocks were spotless.
Ideal site for anyone wanting a base to explore Fort William and Ben Nevis.
A big shout out to Dennis he saw me trying to repair my hook up, he offered to lend me a lead as we had book with electric and didn't have a working lead.
The kind gentleman sold me a 4 way hook up at a discount price.
My only gripe is the shop has limited food it was mainly stocked with all camping gear.
I recommend this site to anyone

Great site and perfectly placed for lots of places to see.
On arrival the staff were very friendly and welcoming, toilet and showers were perfectly clean, plenty of water points and bins which is probably the reason there wasn’t one piece of rubbish to be seen.
If you’re putting an awning up make sure you have rock pegs as you will need them but don’t worry they sell them in the shop on site which is very well stocked with caravan equipment

The site is perfectly placed for access to NCR 78 & the Great Glen Way, turn right at the entrance and follow the quiet lane to the Caledonian Canal and Neptune's staircase, the Great Glen Way and NCR 78 run along the canal at this point.
Very nice site on the banks of the River Lochy. Friendly greeting at the reception, hardstanding with hook up for tourers and large grassed area with picnic tables for those camping.
Facilities are of a good standard and cleaned daily. The outstanding feature for us was the view of Ben Nevis and its changing moods.

We stayed here whist walking the Great Glen Way.
This is a medium size camp site which takes full range of accommodations'. As well as cabins which looked quite luxurious. The abolitions are clean and modern and well maintained as is the whole camp site. Also price very reasonable.
The views from the tent area are fabulous of Ben Nevis and surrounding mountains. The camp area is flat well cut with bench you can move to your tent. Seems quite campsite. Also near Neptune Steps.

Two nights booked, first impressions was of a well maintained and cozy little site.
There were a couple of large youth groups arrived just after us, resulting in waiting in line for toilets and showers in the morning. Showers adequate and clean.

Write Up for Locky Holiday Park Fort William 11 to 18 July 2015
Situated on the outskirts of Fort William and with Ben Nevis as its backdrop we were pleasantly surprised at the lovely views from our pitch. We had a discount from being members of the Camping and Caravan Club and paid £20. 50 a night.
Very easy to access we had a grass pitch near the gas container compound (not a pretty sight) and were lucky to be a couple of pitches away from a part of the site which flooded every time it rained. A couple of tenters moved closer to us to avoid this flooding. However there are lots of hardstandings around which did not have any problems.
The site has the river Lochy running down the back of it and a small walk along it for the dogs. The Toilet Block was clean and modern but unheated, some mornings the temperature was as low as 11 degrees and a bit of warmth would have been nice.
Bus stops about 10 minutes away. Motorhome and Caravan owners are highly privileged in Fort William – there is a specific parking area near Lidls for them to park all day for a couple of pounds, ideal for the walks along Glen Nevis or dare I say Ben Nevis! And of course Fort William itself. Excellent views everywhere you look.
DTV and Sky have good reception.
The staff were helpful and friendly.
There is a shop on site which also sells parts for Motorhomes and Caravans. A garage is near for newspapers and just across the road is a Homefarm discount shop.
We enjoyed our visit and did our usual car rides to the surrounding places of interest.
My only complaint was that the drinking water and grey water were together and the hose was in use for both operations – not good.
The only problem with the North West of Scotland is the weather. It seems to be a magnet for rain and we found it fairly cold for mid July.
Recommend the site – good value for money especially if you get the discount.

Nice site with a great view of Ben Nevis, when it's not hidden in mist.
40min walk to Fort William station.
Gravel pitches for motorhomes with hookup, which we didn't need so we pitched up on grass area with picnic tables. Pick your grass site with care as there are a few low patches which filled with water when it rained.
Showers were clean and warm, though cubicles were quite small.
Very helpful staff particularly as we had to extend our stay and get a new starter motor fitted on site.

I spent a weekend here with my 2 year old son at the weekend, it has a good play park that would probably have been considered a little old for my son but he managed ok climbing the cargo nets to go down the slide, there were even 2 chickens wondering about at one point which again pleased my son.
The views of Ben Nevis are spectacular while you watch your child play or sit by the tent and relax, the Tent field is vast and was scattered with quite a good number of picnic benches which we found very helpful as my son likes to sit and eat at the table.
The shower block was well kept and very clean, showers were hot as well which is always a good bonus, my main issue was a lack of space to get dried and dressed with a toddler ie if I was in the shower on my own it was fine id have had plenty of space or id have just went back to the tent and got dressed but with a toddler and all that goes with him it was a little tight, the only other option was a bench outside the showers but that was right by the door so cold and in the way of footfall, I'm not sure if the ladies had a 'family shower' or not but we managed fine so it wasn't a major issue.
That one thing does not detract from what is a brilliant site, in a fantastic location, run by lovely people.
We will definitely book again in the future.

We stayed 10 nights, only because we had booked that time. Friendly enough, but a non-descript site, quite large with some static caravans for hire. We felt the site was aimed at those mostly. The toilet and shower blocks were very good, clean etc. , but the shower cubicles were no bigger than the toilet cubicles and no shower curtains! I 'hung' my towel and clothes over the door to keep from getting them wet. The dish wash area is very inadequate for the size of the site with only 2 sinks, and only room for 2 people, whereas a lot of couples do the washing up together. In busy times it is probably a nightmare. The laundry facilities are excellent. The site is in a stunning location on the outskirts of town, with a tremendous view of Ben Nevis, and a short walk or cycle takes you to The Caledonian Canal at Neptunes staircase. The site has a small shop with basic needs and some caravan accessories. A good size Morrisons in town, and decetly priced fuel 5 minutes drive away.
