Mrs Ross welcomed us on this tranquil campsite with great views. It is a grass campsite with enough electric pitches, and it is never full so there is much much space, and beautiful views since it is located on a hill. This is very different from nearby campsites that have no view! Great cycler routes right from the campsite. Facilities basic but very correct. And for 14 pounds a night it is indeed a steal. Very relaxing, quiet place with good atmosphere
We've been returning to Cathies site at Woodend for around 12yrs as we love the relaxed atmosphere, it's perfect for anyone with dogs, cyclists, walkers and fishermen as there's an abundance of choice for each hobby.
When you arrive at the house the owner Mrs Cathie Ross greets all visitors with a quite friendly highland welcome, if she's out you pick your own pitch and book in later. If your children are young, there is a play area at the top of the site on the hill, where you also get the best views.
All the usual facilities are available hookups, chemical toilet disposal point, toilets, showers, hair dryers. The laundry facilities which are located in a separate building. There is also a small library situated between the ladies & gents where you can borrow or swap books. Previous reviewers have said the facilities are not state of the art, but they are warm homely and spotlessly clean, and all for the princly fee of £12 per night incl. Elec. Awnings and extras like wind breaks and additional vehicles included.
We've been here in all seasons and there's always something to hold intrest, in Spring there's the lambing following on there are numerous birds, the house martins and swallows have become a firm favourite. It's a perfect central area to reach anywhere in the North, favourites include Ullapool, Lochinvar especially around Drumbeg, Durness and out towards the summer isles. Actually too numerous to mention. Word of warning though, if you prefer arcades, promenades and non stop nigh life sadly this site and area is not for you.
If you want peace and quiet, apart from sounds of nature, you are in the right place! This is a site that has all you need without any bells and whistles. A perfectly adequate and clean facilities block, otherwise a large open space and pitch where you like. We were the only van there! Nothing in the way of shops/pubs in walking distance, but easy driving to Lairg and beautiful scenery all round.
I have been a fairly regular visitor to this site for the past ten years or so, after a break of several years. It's a quite basic campsite, but the facilities are all fine, with a decent toilet/shower block, laundry room, and a small ' camper's kitchen'/information point. The site itself is grass, sloping a bit in parts, but with great open views all round. And it's a great location; there are some super, longish, round trips on quiet roads for cyclists, decent walking with some fine hills such as Bens Hope and Loyal, Arkle and Foinaven not too far away, and I would imagine good fishing nearby. No store on site, but Lairg is ten minutes away. And there is always a fine Highland welcome from Mrs Ross. A lovely site for a relaxing break; must get back soon!
A delightful and peaceful location with good facilities, an attentive host (reminded me of my grannie), a child play area (a good distance away from pitches for those who don't like kids, but close enough for mum and dad to see), decent walks if you have a dog. There are a lot of sheep in adjacent fields so keep them under control. First class laundry facilities (loved the spinner for 10p). Showers were 10p and HOT. A great stopover point, but perhaps not for a longer stay - unless you wanted a period of peace and tranquillity. Only negative was chemical disposal point. Felt a bit grotty, but it was functional.
What a fantastic site. Arrived here to a very warm welcome from Mrs Ross, after having a week travelling around north of Scotland, by far the cheapest site. Like other reviews £12 a night motorhome, 2 adults with electric. ( what a bargain).
Lovely setting and great views. Site was nice and quiet when we were visiting and could have any pitch we wanted.
The facilities looked good and as other reviewer said laundry very well equipped. Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone worth coming the 5 miles extra
Site well signposted from Lairg. Arrived in the midst of a thunder storm. Booked in at house opposite the site. Mrs. Ross, the owner is a charming lady, we had a good chat, then chose our own pitch. We chose hard standing, near the toilets
and laundry (which we didn't use but seemed well equipped) Toilets etc. Very clean and tidy. Showers cost 20p but worth it as water was really hot. Very quiet and peaceful site. At £12. 00 a night for motorhome, 2 adults, dog, awning, hook-up and a small car we tow behind it is excellent value for money. Same thing near Blair Atholl would have cost about £30. 00.
Loads of attractions within easy reach, Falls of shin, Smoo Cave and Dunrobin Castle well worth a look also Scourie, Lochinver, Brora Golspie, Durness Tongue and loads more. Woud certainly use this site again in the future.
Found Woodend through this website and arrived to find a comfortable site with hard standings. As we are fully appointed with our own facilities we didn't use any of the sites. However we would have had no problem with using the showers / toilets / washingup area. The laundry room was a boon, spinner 10p washer £3.00 dryer £1.00 (didn't use the dryer weather was fine) rotary washing line available.
The surrounding area very nice saw Hen Harriers near Rosehall. Can recommend Sutherland Sporting in Lairg, we would stay again at Woodend price was £12.00 / night 2 adults one dog.
