 In terms of location, you won't find a better campsite on Skye. It has a view of the sea and is surrounded by stunning mountain scenery. However, if you go in the summer, take midge repellent as they are a problem here.

The site itself is fairly basic. There's a no booking policy, so you have to turn up and squash in if its busy, but this was not a problem at all, and was far less regimented than some of the commercial sites in Scotland. Facilities were adequate but very dated, but they charge far less than other places so we were happy with it.

Over the road is a nice pub, which does good food. Main courses were about £8-£10.

 As other reviewers have said this is a fairly basic site but has everything you need and is surrounded by spectacular mountains. Friendly owner. Positioned in the middle of the island for easy access to all parts. Hotel opposite is very welcoming and has free wifi if you need it although I couldn't connect.
We didn't eat there but the food looked good. Apart from its own beer it had 255 whiskies to choose from. Excellent Swimming pool etc at Portree only opened last year.

 Stopped here one wet summers camping on skye. It is possible to wild camp for free in the very near area but if you need a shower and want to go to the local pub which is very good and nice food to its great. There is no protection from the wind what so ever. But the views make up for that is a great location.

There are toilets, showers, sinks, drinking water tap. Is basic stuff really.

I will be back at some point and would stay on this site again.

 Nice site, in beautiful scenery. Weather good.

Wonderful walks mostly uphill, but when you get there the scenery is spectacular.

Good food in hotel bar, reasonably priced, hot and plenty of it after a full days walk.

Facilities clean, showers hot.

Good site.

Reviewer: Peter Knox 6 reviews from this member

 Facilities all there, all a little basic though. Hookup present, water tap nearby. Great views, probably the best mountain views in the U.K, truly stunning!

Best, as other reviewers have noted, for people used to a bit of rough camping, rather than the posh.

Would stay again.

Date of Visit: April 2009 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: B19hammy 1 review from this member

 Stayed at this site last weekend (April 10-12).

What can I say. The views were awesome.

The hotel over the road brewing it's own beer which was very potent! A word to the wise though, dont come here if you belong to the plastic-flowers-in-the caravan window mob. The site is basic and a bit boggy in places, the toilets are basic too but do the job.

The warden only turns up a couple of times a day to collect the money, I missed the midges - it being April, but I'm Scottish so have met them many times before. My two dogs had a great time, the warden guy did not bother, but recommended the hotel as being dog friendly.

I loved it and will definitely be back!

Reviewer: Artibee 3 reviews from this member

 Caravanning and camping as it used to and should be. No booking required which leaves you free to roam as you please. Friendly helpful warden, very laid back giving no pressure!
Fantastic views all around. Even better - no shops. Toilet block warm and clean although pallets in ladies shower area need replacing. Lovely warm showers though!
Will definitely be back. Good for the mind, body and soul! 


Date of Visit: August 2008 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Jonah42 1 review from this member

 This was a great site for traditional camping, great location, good services, reasonable price, warden is really helpful and polite and friendly, what more do you need.
The views of the cuillins are probably the sites biggest asset along with a bar and restaurant just over the road. The site is primarily aimed at walkers and climbers and not the English Riviera set.
Toilets and showers are cleaned daily and you're not pestered by an over zealous warden, he was really helpful to a lot of people while I was there.
I shall definitely return to Sligachan campsite

Reviewer: Col+sarah 5 reviews from this member

 Lovely location with views of Cuillins and a sea loch and ideal place for walking - there are several good walks you can do from the campsite. Midges terrible. Plenty of toilets and showers but not the cleanest (dead midges all round the sinks) and the floor of the ladies' toilets and showers was permanently flooded. Free hairdryers though! Cost is £5 per person per night.
The Sligachan Hotel over the road brews its own beer and does decent food in its bar (there is a separate restaurant too) - bar is cavernous inside rather than a cosy pub but nice enough.

Reviewer: Struangrove 5 reviews from this member

 We loved this site. Even the midges didn't put us off! There were so many of them in the tent at one point, we sat in the car. Which was awesome due to the views!

Facilities were great.Hot showers all day long. Clean and warm in the blocks too. Pub/Restaurant across the road was lovely. Friendly, fast and reasonably priced.

No shops around, BUT! You wouldn't go to Skye to be stuck in one place.Plenty shops whilst travelling around.
