Excellent site. First rate family management team make it a real pleasure to stay. Have already been twice this year and can't wait to return. Very welcoming and unparalleled location.
Coffee shop an excellent innovation with first rate home-baking. Staff exceptionally helpful on site and with advice on local facilities and services.
Views and sunsets stunning and site within easy reach of Ullapool with all the usual shopping and recreational facilities.
Site superbly located for walking, hill-walking and exploring the unique geology and landscape of the Assynt area.
This is a good campsite! Please don't be put off by the mixed reviews we will definitely be back.
We visited this campsite on the Jubilee weekend and I was surprised that it was as quiet as it was. The campsite is in a lovely area just far enough away from the busy wee town of Ullapool unfortunately its just a bit too far to cycle as there are 2 big hills. It is next to the road but you hear very little noise at night.
The campsite itself is very well laid out, the camping field is flat and the grass is cut short. The caravans got the good plots with the views though as this is where all the hook ups are. The field does have some too.
The toilet block is clean and tidy with plenty of hot water.
The shop has all the necessary stuff in case you forget anything and the cafe makes the basic breakfasts plus nice homebaking.
Its is in a perfect location if you want to go hiking, lots of good hills close by.
It is nice and quiet and a great place for kids as the pebble beach is very close. Sunsets are great and the breeze keeps the midges away.
Camping is outside, if the weather is wet it will be miserable. If you want luxury then go to a hotel. Lets keep these nice campsites free from all the extras that people now want such as heated toilet blocks, hairdryers, pubs, kids clubs etc.
Only one wee thing missing - recycling bins!

Reviewer: Webmaster
Please note this park is under new management with effect from April 2012.
We only stayed here for two nights and because we didn’t want an electric hook-up site, we were told to go into the tent field where there was no benefit from the wonderful view available from the hard standings and caravan part which overlook Loch Broom.
The tent field is however, well sheltered with willow hedges, so when that fierce wind gets up, there is reasonable protection. We know how important that is, having been blown down one year at the site in Ullapool!
The facilities were modern and certainly adequately clean and sufficient in number while we were there.
The reception was business –like but not particularly friendly and there was a small shop.
We drove into Ullapool to eat in the evening and were very happy with the restaurants there ( We ate in the Celidh Place and the Argyll Hotel). It’s only about 3 miles away, and it’s a great town for shopping as well.
Booked this site for it's views and location, both of which were first rate. Sadly, nothing else about this camp site was anything but second rate. We stayed for 9 days and used the smaller toilet block as this was nearest to us.
The gents hand soap dispensers had no soap in them for the whole of our stay, the sinks were so dirty with filthy taps and water all over the surfaces they were unusable.
Toilets stank with cloths in the urinals left festering for the whole of our stay. Amazing as I did see cleaners going into the block- who knows what they did in there- but cleaning was not on their agenda- that's for sure.
Electric tripped out regularly. Reception never manned, and such small pitches, really claustrophobic pitches. Asked guy at reception what was in the local area, nothing one way and Ullapool the other was his uninterested reply.
Of course, the way of nothing being the main route to Sutherland, with a geopark just along the way and some outstanding views so here his reply didn't add up, otherwise, he did at least know the way to Ullapool. When the soap ran out in the ladies that too was not replaced.
During the entirety of our stay I felt like the owners of this site cared only for the money they were making and could not have cared less about anything else, least of all it's paying customers.
This site should and could be first rate, sadly it stinks of 'cram em in, take their cash and send em on their way'.

Stayed on this site for 3 nights and it was beautiful. A much more sheltered site than the site within Ullapool.
The warden was very helpful when we arrived and he told us which pitch he had placed us on. A lovely pitch with delightful views towards the Summer Isles.
The pitches aren't huge but enough room to either have your caravan and awning with car parked behind or your caravan and car side by side.
Some of the pitches, including ours, are slightly sloping which was a bit tricky as we wanted to turn our van so that the front faced the coast but a helpful neighbour added his body weight to stop the van rolling forward!
Toilets were adequate, they could do with some modernisation but they were clean and served their purpose.
We would probably use this site again, I liked the fact that you could book in advance and that there were actual pitches marked but unlike the site in Ullapool, you can't walk anywhere for dinner.
We did prebook and did catch reception open but opening times were erratic. A variety of pitches but all fairly cramped.
Views from all pitches second to none and made up for minor niggles - dog walking limited to a very pebbly beach or a fairly busy road; facilities (small toilet block) were a bit dated but mostly clean.
Bus service to Ullapool (3 miles away) appeared to be non-existent with no shop or eating place nearby.
Site shop did have the basics. Site staff friendly but appeared a little remote at times.
A good overnight stop but be prepared to travel if staying for longer.
We stayed at this site for one night, we chose just about the windiest day of the year and this site is on a spit of land so is exposed to the elements, so be warned if the wind is blowing!
We booked in, were told to find our own pitch, so we found a hardstanding with electric hook up, but at about 5.30 pm realised the electric wasn't working. The reception doesn't seem to be manned much, there was no one there when I battled through the wind to tell them we had no electric, and no answer when we rang the phone number. Fortunately a camper van arrived a bit later and my husband spotted someone coming out of reception, so I ran up to reception and just caught the person as they were leaving again. When I said we had no electricity she simply said that the trip must have gone, and told me to go and find the box of trips and reset it myself. There was no offer to come down and do it herself. So then we had to battle the wind, climb up a bank, discover the box had to be opened with a screwdriver or similar, my husband had to get the toolbox out in order to get a screwdriver out to access the trip to get our electricity working. Fortunately that solved the problem because the lady in reception didn't offer any other solution when I asked what we should do if that failed to make the electricity work!And if it hadnt worked we certainly wouldn't have been able to contact any member of staff to ask for help.
Also, I used the laundry and was surprised to find that I had to pay as much to use an ordinary domestic size washing machine as I usually pay to use a large commercial washer on other sites. The tumble dryer was ludicrously expensive, 20p for 3 minutes, whereas on other sites you get anything from 10 - 20 minutes for 20p. As we were away for a month I had to to do washing sometimes, I just wish I hadnt used this site's facilities!
We went into Ullapool, which is nice little town, and I'm sure this site would be a good base for touring the area, but I think it suffers with being exposed to wind and bad weather, and the service definitely lets the site down
We stayed here for 1 night only after arriving from Stornoway ferry. Staff here weren't all that helpful on arrival and we felt a bit left to sort ourselves out. The pitches for tents were fairly waterlogged and set back behind a hedge (it seems the decent views mentioned by others are reserved for non-tent customers). The wind can really get strong in the night here, what seemed a reasonably calm evening when we pitched our tent turned into a howling gale in the night. As another reviewer stated, were also forced to take to the car in the night. This spoiled not only our stay but the next day of our holiday as we were all wrecked after getting very little sleep. The site is to far to walk to Ullapool, so we were forced to drive to get a meal in the evening.
We arrived at Ullapool in the afternoon of the 26th of September and found a lovely pitch over looking the Loch, The toilets were very good as was the showers and very clean.It's a lovely sight to sit and watch the ferry leave from Ullapool to Stornaway. There are lots of shops very close by and the post office has some super staff who were very informative as to when the 'dreaded Midges appear' though I must say we did not get bitten. We were going to stay for a few more days but the site closed on the Wednesday the 29th. We did meet the manager he offered to pull our caravan off the pitch it's a (twin wheeler) with his tractor but we managed to clear the pitch it had been raining so the manager told us for almost for the whole week, he was very friendly and was his wife too. We would certainly return there. The site was well managed and the grass was well cut, it is a large site but it was very neat and tidy.So we say a 'a big thank you' to Ardmair Point

Stayed on this site for 4 days in early September. It is in a beautiful location with a string of grass and hard standing pitchs right on the waters edge looking out over Loch Broom. It has a second field in a more sheltered location behind the mail toilet block with a small children's play park beside this.
The main toilet block is behind the reception with dishwashing facilities at one end. When we visited these had obviously not been cleaned for some time being full of dead flies,midges and dirty sinks etc.
The gents toilets and washbasins were acceptable although not cleaned every day however the 3 showers in this block were dirty, one with a broken door and water dripping continuously.
There is a second smaller toilet block further into the site and again this was not clean. Dishwashing facilities again had not been cleaned for some time nor had the gents showers which filled with water as they were used owing to the drain holes being blocked with hair.
I understand this was near the end of the season for this site but it was still busy while I was there and required more attention that it got.
Stayed here for a few nights. I also found the lady warden rather 'offish' on arrival. Told to find a pitch and then go back to see her at 6pm to settle up, which we did obviously.
Facilities ok but needed updating. Washing machine rather expensive at £4.00 although this was for an hour's wash. Tumble dryer the most expensive I had come across but it did its job. No iron/board in the laundry room.
As for the views, absolutely breathtaking. The sunsets were beautiful and we have the photographs to prove it. Nice walks along the pebble beach and along to the small harbour. Short drive into Ullapool.
We visited this site due to it's closeness to Ullapool and the positive reviews on here. While the scenery and surroundings are undoubtedly breathtaking and the facilities itself are good, we have decided not to go back for the following reasons.
There is absolutely no where to walk your dogs safely, our 2 dogs ended up with very sore paws due to having to be walked on the beach and as it is a pebble beach, they both ended up with scraped, very sore paws.
Also, the rules of the camp state all dogs to be kept on leads at all times, which we totally understand, seems to be a rule that is only applied to some dogs as there was other people there that had dogs that were allowed to run free all about the park.
The welcome we received was lukewarm and when we were there, there was some atrocious weather to the point our tent (a vango vista so that tells you how bad it was as our tent was sturdy) ended up all ripped and ruined to the point we had to sleep in the car. The wardens just left us to it, no offer to help or nothing, we left the next day.
When we booked in, the warden put our debit card payment through on their wrong machine, she told me this approx an hour to 2 hours later and had to put it through again, which is fine, except she done this first before telling me and made another mistake as she charged me again and then refunded it, all this was done without my knowledge and once it was done, she came round and told me, in my opinion she should have checked with me first before taking more payments from my card without permission.
The toilets were clean, the shop was stocked with most supplies though at the weekend, basics like eggs, milk and bread were not available and yes plenty of place to camp but the poor welcome along with when I tried to ask some questions about where my hubby could fish etc. and was not really given any help at all, left me with a feeling we were not really welcome and a friendly atmosphere can really make a campsite.
The laundry was £4.00 plus 60p for powder which is the most expensive I have seen yet on a campsite and they charged 10p per block to freeze ice-blocks which there is no need for, in my opinion, and is the first time I have ever seen a campsite charge for this facility and as campers need freeze blocks all the time, I felt a bit taken advantage of especially as we were already paying £14 per night.
So in short, would we return no, I had to go into Ullapool 5 times when we there, what I spent in diesel I could have used to pay for the difference in staying at Broomfield and been on the door stop of Ullapool town.
The toilet block within the reception building is first class and is the only one I can recommend using. I am afraid the other 'shack' like building is clearly past its sell by date and badly in need of some TLC. A new roof has recently been added but otherwise the facilities must be as they were some 15 years ago. However they are very clean.
As ever the views across to Isle Martin and Loch Broom are why you stay here. I noted 3 Plovers sitting on 4 eggs on the beach stones. Very well camouflaged. Hope the chicks survive.
Ullapool, just down the road is a very interesting place to spend time. Try a sail on the Summer Queen out to the Summer Isles. The road to the Summer Isles through the Inverpolly reserve is decked with a flourish of wild Gorse; very pretty.
Stayed here for 1 night, almost stayed at the site in Ullapool town but so glad we didn't as the setting for this site is stunning. We were sited right on the front near the reception with views out to sea and had great views of the Calmac ferries going backwards and forwards to Ullapool.
Very friendly welcome at reception and as mentioned previously, an excellent shop selling virtually everything you can think of in relation to camping etc.
The site facilities were good, showers hot and all clean. Laundry facilities were good.
