 This will be our third visit here, great campsite. Level pitches, picnic areas, warm spotless, free showers and toilets. Anne and the doggies are lovely. If you do have a dog there are great walks from the campsite. We really like it there and will be going again

Reviewer: Deejay46 1 review from this member

 We have stopped on this wonderful site numerous times in both camping pods and tents and will continue to do so. Whether it's during the spring or summer months or even over New Year the warm welcome always makes us feel like we have come to see friends and not just a campsite.

The site is superbly looked after and maintained and they clearly take enormous pride in this site.

Toilets an shower block are pristine and the campers kitchen has everything needed and is also being upgraded.

Plenty of information is provided at reception and if they haven't got what you need then they will always search and find what you are looking for. Nothing is too much trouble.

The site sits in a wonderful setting overlooked by mountains and has the Sustrans bike route nearby as well as a short walk to Cuil Bay, which is always worth a visit.

A nice quiet site with close proximity to Glencoe and Fort William with Oban only 40mims away.

We always look forward to making our annual pilgrimage to this site and would recommend tit to anyone without hesitation.

 This was our second stay at this site. We returned because we loved it there. The toilets and showers are immaculately kept and nothing is too much trouble for Anne and Dicky. Even the dogs seem to like it there. This is one of the best sites I've ever stayed on and we will definitely came back every year.

Reviewer: Mumoffive 17 reviews from this member

 We stumbled upon this site by accident. There was no one home when we arrived but there was a mobile number to call on the reception door.

Having spoken to the owners we were told where to pitch and told to make ourselves at home.

Beautiful views and lovely clean facilities. The washing machine was put to good use.

Sadly the tumble drier was not very efficient and therefore drying the clothes became a tad expensive. Had the weather been better there were washing lines which would have been useful.

The owners were lovely when they arrived and very knowledgeable of the surroundings.

We only stayed one night but would revisit if we were back in the area.

 Stayed 2 nights on this lovely family run site. Found it by accident from sign on main road. It is a small but very well maintained site perfect for caravans, motorhomes and tents. Good sized pitches all facilities including a campers kitchen with microwave and fridge. Very reasonable priced WiFi

The couple who run it are friendly welcoming and seem to work non stop, even though the site was full (there was a big bike event in Fort William) it was a comfortable and relaxing stay.

There is a long distance cycle track close by on old railway track so perfect for walkers, doggies and cyclists. Love to go back for longer stay.

Only problem were the midges but it was a hot June day in Scotland and they only a problem late night and early morning.

Reviewer: Smiths2015 1 review from this member

 This has been visit number eight and as with all the other visits to this park - perfection.

The owners are friendly, helpful and hardworking.

The site itself in set within the beautiful Scottish Highlands and with the fantastic hiking, walking, shopping, scenery and being able to be at one with mother earth. Well this is truly an experience that becomes addictive.

I have stayed at 20+ sites in little over three years and this is the only site I would give 10/10.

Well done - you make our holidays even more pleasant. 


Date of Visit: October 2015 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: DianeAlbert 1 review from this member

 We visited this campsite in late October, arriving after dark. Unfortunately my husband developed a medical problem soon after arrival and needed hospital treatment. The campsite owner was wonderfully helpful, nothing too much trouble. Don't know what we would have done without her. Fortunately the hospital were able to stabilise my husbands condition and we were able to return to the campsite. We had a great 5 days there, great facilities and very clean. We will certainly use this site again. 


Date of Visit: September 2015 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Newbs68 3 reviews from this member

 We've just got back from a three night stay at Achindarroch Touring Park. What a gem of a place! I realise it's not always as quiet as late September but it was sheer bliss. The owners couldn't be more helpful, the facilities are exceptionally clean and spotless. Plenty of hot water from the showers and a well equipped Campers kitchen. Looks like the place is very popular with seasonal caravans.

They also have two camping pods, great if you don't want to put a soggy tent away.

There is wifi available on site, which we made use of as the price was very reasonable. The pitches are huge, that's great as it makes you feel much more relaxed. The ground was sort of semi hardstanding, semi grass. Very good as despite rain it wasn't soggy underfoot or underwheel. Very well cared for grounds. Dogs are welcome and you don't have to pay extra! Big bonus that. Plenty of nice walks in the area.

We look forward to returning next year! 


Date of Visit: August 2015 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Matt8428 1 review from this member

 Having travelled around most of Scotland and staying in quite a few campsites, this was by far the quietest and accommodating plus good value for money. Anne and Dick have put in a lot of hard work to get this up and running and couldn't do enough to ensure that my stay was enjoyable and peaceful.

The site is really well located for those who want to venture into the hills to ramp up their Munro tallies or, for those who enjoy a more flattish terrain, Cull Bay is in walking distance along a designated path keeping you off the main roads.

Facilities at the site are excellent and clean but as said, this site is still being developed and no doubt will be a gem of a place once completed.

For those who put wifi as their first Maslows priority of need, this is available and you get quite a good coverage without having to wait for buffering.

There is a golf and activity centre towards Ballahuilish as well as a Supermarket. Plenty of places to stop and eat as well as the famous Boot Bar (you will need transport to get there!). The main thing is the scenery, you are in hill walking territory as well as a few touristy attractions (castles, history, boat trips etc. ) so it's quite ideal for the family get away and for those that want to explore.

I will definitely be staying there again when I look forward to bagging a few Munros and a peaceful rest afterwards.

Reviewer: PHolds 10 reviews from this member

 Arrived on our bikes wet and tired to be met by the lovely owner who told us to pitch any where. Good soft ground. Very midgey don't forget your face nets, you'll be eaten alive. The Sustrans bicycle route runs adjacent to the site Oban to Fort William and is nearing completion. The owl box with the cctv was very interesting as was talking to the owner about its history.

Pub down the track is pretty good for food and beers, but quite pricey.

Toilet/shower/laundry et. Al. All top notch.

Reviewer: Olliedog 1 review from this member

 May 2015 was our 7th consecutive visit, and once again everything was spot on, the owners Anne and Dick continue to strive to provide an excellent service, the park is situated in an ideal location for touring NW Scotland with destinations N, S, E and W all accessible, but if just lounging around your tent / caravan is all that's required you really can't go wrong, beautiful setting, picnic benches are plentiful and the toilets are ALWAYS spotless with hot water available 24/7 for the showers. The on site 'campers kitchen' has everything and more you require including a washer and tumble dryer. We have been in some extreme weather in the past in the early months for a tent, one night of high winds we could hear something outside --- it was Anne the site owner knocking in some loose guy rope pegs we had, that just about sums up what a gem of a site this is. The tent pitches are extremely spacious and flat with very good drainage which is always welcome, roll on Sept for visit no 8 !

Reviewer: Hedingham 1 review from this member

 Gorgeous location, peaceful, tranquil, surrounded by a view to die for. Excellent, spotless facilities. Returned for a further stay this time in a tent in July and returning again in August and September. You cannot beat this site for a faultless relaxing break. Very close to the bay for water lovers and right in the heart of exquisite countryside for walkers and explorers alike. 


Date of Visit: April 2014 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Tavycam 1 review from this member

 Stayed at this site for the Easter weekend and found the owners to be very helpful and friendly. The first morning when we discovered that we had forgotten milk for our coffee I asked the owner where the nearest shop was located, when I realised that it was about 5 miles away the owner was only to pleased to offer a jug of milk until we went for some shopping later that day.

The site is very flat and suitable for the largest of tents which we have found to be difficult over the years, very clean and well maintained.

The toilet blocks are modern and spotless with plenty of hot water at any time of the day or night.

There is a kitchen on site which has a microwave and kettle for general use and a large fridge freezer which is ideal for freezing the ice packs for the cool box.

The weather was so good for the weekend that we did not travel apart from a trip to oban on the Saturday so unable to comment on the surrounding area or attractions.

The area allocated for cleaning dishes and pots is within the kitchen area which could not be better placed as with 2 sinks and not like other sites where the sinks are covered by a tin roof and not pleasant when the rain is coming down horizontally.

Will definitely be going back to this site.

Full marks to the owners.

Reviewer: Eoghann 2 reviews from this member

 I have just returned from a very relaxing week at the Achindarroch Touring Park in Duror, Argyll. This site has everything that ticks all the boxes for me, namely:

- a hearty welcome from the site owners

- five-star customer service

- ultra clean toilet facilities

- total peace and quiet

- breathtaking surroundings

- easy access to Oban, Fort William and beyond

- superb value for money

The site has the added bonus of sitting adjacent to Cycle Route 78, running from Oban to Fort William. This is a blessing for walkers and cyclists, right on the doorstep of the site.

The owners clearly take a lot of pride in their site, and are continuing to improve facilities all the time. This will become the pre-eminent site in the area, I'm sure.

I can't recommend this site highly enough. I will definitely be back!
