This is a unique site set in a beautiful vista. You are asked for your unit size so the perfect pitch can be offered. Each pitch is individual and you feel as if you have the site, and the views to yourself. Facilities excellent and even when full I had no need to queue. Extras include midge dispelling machines, laundry facilities and excellent free Wi - fi at a very reasonable cost of £17 a night with electric. Not forgetting excellent walks from the site and all pitches have their own picnic bench. Mix of tents, camper vans and caravans. Adults only.
I cannot pronounce the name but this site speaks for itself, You drive up to the house and get a friendly welcome and all is explained as regard facilities and your site. The site is really more like a big garden or a small park with superb views with toilets, showers and all the other necessaries sited in the ideal place. I found this site to be a peaceful and relaxing place. I had intended to revisit on my return journey but time ran away from me but it is now the place to stay whenever I am travelling in and around Glengarry
What a peaceful, stunning site only a few miles from Fort Augustus. We saw few midges so May is a good time to visit while it is still cool.
New loos and showers with constant hot water, very clean and rubbish cleared often. Friendly owners on site. Site well planned with dog walks into the forest/loch and each plot well spaced out with PEACE and varied birds and wildlife on the doorstep.
The best site we have stayed on even Bunroy which took some beating.
One of our first camping trips. A lovely site and very quiet this early in the year. We were given a pitch near the dog walk which was secluded, but I didn't see any 'bad' pitches.
The campsite road leads through to a forest track where we could walk our dog off the lead. There was also access to some moorland but signs about livestock so we avoided that area.
We booked this site on the day and what a great find it was! We stayed for 2 nights on 6th and 7th August, towards the end of our 2 week trip around the Highlands and Islands of Scotland. How we wished we had time to stay longer!
There were plenty of nice walks where we could let our dog off the lead to roam around the beautiful, remote surroundings.
We were in a Motorhome and given a choice of pitch No. 12 or 2 and decided on pitch number 12 as it was more private, although we noticed pitch number 2 did have full sun all day and evening! The pitch was hardstanding and overlooked a lovely big duck pond with lilies growing in it and a bridge part way across. (I guess the pond could be one of the reasons this site doesn't allow children and is Adult Only?). I have to say, it was nice to sit back, relax and enjoy the peace and tranquility of the place without any children around.
The toilet and shower block we used was spotless and spacious with plenty of piping hot water and detachable shower heads! We noticed more toilet and shower blocks in the camping area in the wooded areas.
This was the cheapest site we stayed on and even had free wifi. The site even has fridge and freezer facilities for campers and I noticed a sign for laundry, although never went in to explore. The customer service was second to none and we felt that it was great value for money.
Will we go back? You bet we will and next time we will make sure it's for longer! Go on, give it a try - I'm sure you'll love it if its peace and quiet you're looking for!

A lovely site run by friendly and helpful owners. It is set on a wooded hillside with each pitch quite private with a picnic table and bench. The facilities were immaculate, modern, clean and warm. Though pitches were spread out it was only a minutes walk to the shower block. There are walks directly from the site, brilliant for walking the dog. It is a short drive to Fort Augustus where we had a great day watching the boats, walking along the canal and stocking up on provisions.
This site was brilliant, views were wonderful, facilities immaculate and owners so helpful.
Wonderful caravan site very clean toilet and shower block, Lovely views and plenty of space with your own picnic table. The owners where very pleasant and helpful with everything will be back that is for sure best of the best and reasonable price. Dogs where made welcome and it was free of charge which was wonderful as we have three. Anyone wanting a get away from it all should try this campsite as the peace and quite is great.
A bit different to most sites in that the pitches are well spread out across a hillside - you have a lot of privacy and are close to nature. Beautiful views. Well away from anywhere - though not too far (by road) from places to eat or get supplies.
Excellent if you have a dog, there are good dog walks straight from the site, including a very nice, fairly level, 3/4 hour (each way) walk to Loch Lundie, where the dog can be off the lead most of the way - and have a swim when you get there!
Good, clean, facilities blocks (though the spread-out nature of the site means that some pitches have a bit of a treck to get there). One negative: the grey water disposal is combined with the chemical toilet disposal and is almost unusable if you have a large (wheeled) grey water container. Free wifi. Friendly owners. We didn't find midges to be a particular problem here, in late June. Good value for money. Recommended.
I spent two nights at this site, and I can honestly say its one of the best I have ever stayed at. The owner is very friendly, there is a fridge and freezer, the pitches have picnic benches at each one, the area this place is situated is stunning. The road leading to this site is of a good surface, and only a short distance from the main road. The shower blocks/toilets are immaculate. This site does offer peace and quiet, I never heard any music at all whilst I was there, something which has ruined my stay at other sites is listening to other peoples noise. I was on my motorcycle, and the price of £6. 50 per night was fair. I will return for sure to Faichemard Farm, as its a gem.

Had a wonderful stay here at this beautifully laid out site. We parked fairly close to the toilet block, still reasonably private, pitches are very spacious and each came with its own picnic table, which is a real bonus. The shower, whilst basic is good and hot and roomy! We booked for 3 days and stayed for 10.
Around and about is a lot of good walking, good footpaths, well marked and good underfoot. Fort Augustus is close by, lots of coffee shops and tourist stuff but no real food shops worth going to. The only downside is the distance to a decent supermarket but Tesco deliver so next time we visit we will do an online shop!
The whole place is amazing, if you don't want peace and quiet then it's not for you.
We returned a couple of weeks ago from this absolute GEM of a campsite! I cannot fault it in anyway. The owner checked us in and was very organised and polite. It truly felt like we were almost wild camping but with the luxury of toilets and showers! Our pitch had electric. The pitch was flat and we found it no problem to get tent pegs into the ground. The campsite is in a beautiful setting and with it being adults only it was peace, perfect peace! There is an excellent dog walk too! It went on for miles and our dog had a great weekend! There is a washing machine and tumble drier available, although we did not use these facilities. The toilets and showers were kept clean at all times. The showers were excellent! A hairdryer is provded for use in the ladies toilet - free of charge! The water is piping hot at all times. Unfortunately, during our stay we received bad news from my daughter who was involved in an accident in Singapore. Insurance companies had to be involved which meant lots of internet contact with my daughter in Singapore (hospital) and the UK insurers from our tent! Fortunately we had taken our ipad with us. The Wifi on this site is second to none! We actually had better Wifi on the site than we do at home! The strong Wifi signal was an absolute godsend due to the situation with my daughter. We got things sorted out very quickly re insurance, hospital and tickets to fly her home asap. Had we been on a different site with the usual non-reliable Wifi then we would have had no option but to pack up and come home. We definitely can't recommend this site enough and we are for sure intending visiting again before the end of the year! Give it a try - you'll love it!
I would like to start by saying, this is one of, if not the, best campsite we have stayed on.
The set out of the campsite is wonderful, with each plot being separate from the others. It is all laid out at different levels around a pond. There are two shower/toilet blocks, in close walking distance to any of the plots. They were in a wonderfully clean condition at all times. The showers are the biggest showers I have used on a campsite, and the pressure and temperature were more than adequate.
I'm not one for big flashy campsites, so this campsite was perfect for me. The owner was extremely friendly, making sure we had the best pitch available, and gave us all the information about walks in the surrounding area.
Overall, it's a wonderful, reasonably priced campsite.
We paid £13 a night for two adults, medium tent and a car
Camped for tree nights from14-16july 2013. Vango Icarus 500 pitched next to toilet block and lake. Owner was friendly. Pitches were scattered for camping and caravan/campervans/tents due to the terrain. Laundry/coffee shop up the hill. Toilet/showers were cleaned every day. Place to wash dishes and chemical waste disposal. The site is adults only so really quiet. Post office /pub/hotel nearby. Shop and garage not too far. Nearby fort Augustus and loch ness and the Caledonian canal. I would recommend this site, but pre book if your camping and want why.
There seemed at first investigation of this site to be a lot of rules. Having returned twice within a fortnight I can wholeheartedly vouch for the rules. ! The site is beautifully maintained, well laid out, quiet, peaceful, chilled, spacious and set in an absolutely idyllic location. The facilities nearest to our pitch were situated halfway up the terraces, brand new and spotlessly clean. The bins are well organised beside the facilities blocks (recycling) and the water taps are discrete and well placed. There is a dedicated dog walk at the top of the site which leads you through avenues of trees which give just a glimpse now and then of gorgeous Ben Tee presiding over it all. This huge site never crams extras in, there are no overtired children running around and there's never a queue for the shower. Some superb walking nearby too. Highly recommended :)
