 Hooray, we had finally arrived in Skye and this was to be our first stop. We literally just had to find a spot amongst many other tents and vans. The views of the lochs and mountains are stunning.
Unfortunately, that is the only good I can offer on this site. The Hotel over the road was soul-less, no character, where was the Skye culture? Then there were the bins! Overflowing, like a civic amenity centre, were the refuse collectors on strike? The showers and toilets were not too bad and all this said, for a stop-over, it did the job.

Our stay was pleasant until it started to rain overnight. That was when the midges came out to play. We couldn't even go to the toilets cause the sinks and toilet were covered. The warden and his dogs was very nice and friendly the day we packed up the tent was terrible we had black fleece jackets on and they were completely moving. Typical Scottish weather and you cant do anything about that ok for a few days away

Our family loved this campsite. It's not for those who want a luxury 'glamping' experience, but it had everything we needed- large toilet and shower block, hairdryers, washing machine and tumble drier, dishwashing sinks and playpark across the main road!
The only downside is that the site is very exposed (but of course in a beautiful location), so not recommended if it's windy, as we had to leave earlier than we wanted due to a tent pole snapping!
That said, we would definitely stay here again and for £15 a night for a family of six, what more could you want!

I stayed at this site for two nights with my 11 year old daughter. It was her first time camping and I liked the fact that there is a really nice playpark at the hotel across the road, which we made good use of in the evenings. The hotel served good food at reasonable prices and although there was no children's menu, they were very child friendly.
It's quite a tight turn into the site and the entrance is easy to miss (I did!) if you're not sure where you are going.
The campsite warden was a really nice guy, very friendly, chatty and knowledgeable about the area.
There were plenty of pitches when we arrived on the 1st July and we had no problem getting pegs into the ground.
The facilities were very clean, with plenty of hot water for showers and washing dishes. The site wasn't full so there was no queing for showers / toilets.
There's no shop on-site or close by, so Portree is the nearest. Buses do stop at the hotel, so I guess the backpackers would be able to use this service to get to and from Portree.
This was a great base for visiting other parts of Skye. Portree is a short drive away and has some nice shops, cafe's, restaurants and a lovely little harbour where you can go out on a boat if you fancy seeing some wildlife.
We stopped at the AROS centre where we had a nice coffee break and went to the Sea Eagle Exhibition. There is also a fantastic new swimming pool in Portree, which was a great place to spend an hour or so.
If you are interested in reptiles, the Serpentarium at Broadford is really interesting. They rescue reptiles that are illegaly imported and are really passionate about all types snakes, lizards, turtles etc. We got to hold a huge snake.
There is so much to see and do on Skye and we will definitely use this campsite next time we visit.

Just got back from a wonderful holiday in Scotland and while on Skye stayed on this campsite for one night (having been there many years before). The view takes some beating.
We appreciated the hard standing and hook-ups. The toilet block was clean but provision for chemical disposal would have been useful. We sited ourselves and the warden came in the evening to collect the fee.
Sligachan Hotel provided us with a very nice meal in the evening. The weather was good but cold enough for there not to be any midges (yet).

Stopped here for one night in Sept 2010. This had everything we needed for our trip. The campsite is flat.Tent pegs went into the ground fully, always a bonus! There is no hedge or fence around the site to speak of so you are fairly exposed to the weather elements. Fantasic views. The toilet block was fine.Clean. There is 3 outside sinks for washing dishes etc. Plenty of Hot water. The owner lives on site in a caravan and he will find you for the fee. There is a gravel track around the campsite and so your car shouldn't get stuck nor should you get muddy walking to the toilet block. The fee for us was £5 per person per night. There is a large hotel across the road with bar that serves good food. The bar is large and has log fires. No problems here basically. You can leave your car in the car park for free and walk right into the cullin mountains.

Camped here after a few days of quite heavy rain. Managed to find parts of the site that had dried out sufficiently.
The ground was reasonable with tent pegs needing a bit of persuasion to go in.
The facilities block was reasonable with warm showers, sinks etc. Kitchen sinks round the back for washing up.
There's a hotel just the other side of the road which servers good food and local beers. On our visit seemed to be full of campers.
The campsite is basic but it's clean and has great views out to see.
Not sure I'd like to stay there if windy as the site is quite exposed.

A mainly backpacker/climbers site. Get there early if you want to find that nice level pitch as it soon fills up. The bus passes right by the entrance so ideal for those on a walking holiday but don't forget your food as there's no shop on site. Although there is an inn just over the road that serves up a good meal at reasonable prices, also has a games room and playpark outside for the kids. Just turn up and pitch, the warden will come over either in the evening or morning to collect fees, £5pn for 1 person with 2 man tent and motorcycle. Toilet/shower block I found better than a lot I've been to and always clean with plenty hot water. A small laundry room next to the wardens office and plenty sinks round the back of the block for washing up. In all I will certainly be using this site again as I found it a great base to tour the island and beyond.

Dated but adequate facilities - gents in the process of being updated. This was the most basic campsite we used on our fortnights round Scotland trip. Very reasonably priced.
Isolated and windy location with only the Sligachan Hotel and the Cuillins across the road.
Very relaxed - pitch anywhere and friendly, helpful (thanks for use of washing line and pegs) warden who has a caravan on site will come and find you. Hard standing or grass. Level pitches
Midge repellent essential!

The is a handy stopover, possibly the first one you hit on Skye. Breathtaking mountains as a backdrop, this is a very basic, or rough, mainly back packers campsite, with no chemical toilet disposal.
No booking needed the chap just knocks on your door to collect. Campers pull up in a car park type area which has plenty of electric points.
Over the road the hotel is very nice and does food all day, portions are small but its nice enough (300 whiskies and internet).
The site is right on the road but the noise drops over night.
A reasonable stop over for me this one certainly not a holiday site! Its very basic and not that cheap at £14 with electric, herself wouldn't touch the showers but I survived OK. Hotel over the road makes this place a good stop over rather than anything it offers itself. Nothing else but a bus stop in the location (oh yes a micro brewery to).
