Booked in advance and got two pitches next to each other on the Loch side. The views were awesome, the weather not! The warden was very helpful and friendly and gave lots of local information. The local village was in walking distance and very picturesque.
Fort Augustus is a must do. The whole area is beautiful and the site well worth a visit. The bar was nice and the food reasonable value for money.
Cracking campsite as a stop off near Loch Ness. It's very quiet with lovely scenery nearby.
It's very new so everything is clean and tidy and all the facilities work.
It is close to the very picturesque town of Fort Augustus, so there are plenty of pubs and eateries nearby. I can recommend the Lock Inn and The Bothy in particular. There are a few nice walks to be had inc. Along the 'Caley' canal.
Lovely campsite and lovely little town. I've been twice now and will definitely be back.
The previous reviews given are pretty accurate, although the kids play area is now open. It is just a strip of land alongside the Loch with the road up behind you, but that was not a problem.
Personally I wouldn't stay here for a week's holiday, it is a nice place to stop off and you are right by Loch Ness, one of those things you have to do. Surprised there weren't more sites in the area. Only one amenity block open while we were there, just two showers and not very powerful, but everywhere clean.
We didn't use the bar so cannot comment. No minumum stay when we visited during the week, although the Scottish schools had already broken up for summer.
Lovely site, lovely location. Toilet blocks were clean but basic. A very uneven site with most pitches slopping towards the loch. Unfortunately, we arrived on a Sunday evening and the bar was closed.
Early evening the electric tripped in our row and myself and others went looking for the warden who was no where to be seen. It wasn't until after 23.00 that he appeared with the owner and systematically isolated the fault which was a foreign camper van.
We were left for some 4 hours in the dark as all electric site lights were out. The owner and warden were very apologetic but this does not excuse the fact that there was no help available to campers.
Two adults stayed in a campervan for two nights at the end of June with electric.
ON ARRIVAL:
Campsite easy to find and looked friendly and inviting on arrival. I had contacted the site beforehand to book our stay and the man I spoke to seemed very nice and recognised us when we arrived.
PITCH:
Incredibly lucky with our pitch. We were right on the loch-front and only the second one in from the wee path down to the gravel beach. The pitch was gravel. I do think the pitch was an okay size but then we didn't have an awning or car so we have a bit of a skewed opinion on that.
LOCAL ATTRACTIONS:
We drove up to the Clansman Hotel, had a meal (very tourist orientated obviously but we had to compete with a bus tour which meant service was a bit slow) and then went on the Jacobite Cruise which was brilliant. Didn't see Nessie though.
FACILITIES:
The toilets were not brilliant but certainly not horrendous. I think I have quite a low level of expectations as I do festivals with portaloos. They were kept reasonably clean and well-stocked.
The pub was nice but we only stayed for a few drinks, we didn't eat there.
CONCLUSION:
This was our first time out with the campervan on our own. Although this campsite will stay on our holiday list, I think we might try another one in the future to compare.

First arrived at this site in 1998. There have been a lot of changes since then. My visit in June 2010, is the first time I have been at this site for 6 years.
The views of the Loch are wonderful, its a peaceful and quiet site, it always has been.
I was surprised this time, to find all the grass covered over in chippings. Many years back, there were extensive playing areas for the kids. These have been removed to make way for more stone and wooden holiday chalets. There is one small area for the kids to play, but it is restricted. There was a lot of work, ongoing, to improve and extend the shower and toilet blocks, during our stay. Our pitch was big enough, but caravan legs were fully extended, and on sat on blocks, to cope with the slope.
The staff at the site were really friendly, Tiffany who cleans up & works in the office in the mornings then comes back on the night to work in the bar, a lovely girl with a great sense of humour & a excellent personality & Paul the site warden meeting & greeting people & showing you to you're pitch, I swear that blokes running on Duracell batteries, he just keeps going.
The site is brilliant if you're looking for a bit of peace & quite then this site is definitely for you apart from the occasional low flying jet up & down the Loch.
The toilets & showers are really clean & well looked after, there's a laundry room around the back if required & there's a bar that serves meals as well I liked this site when I visited it a few years ago & I fell in love with it this time I really didn't want to leave & come back to Birmingham.
Should anybody ask me to recommend a place to stay in the Highlands I would definitely be recommending this Holiday Park.
This is their first year for caravans and motorhomes and already shows great potential. The hard standing pitches are huge and very easy to park on.
Each pitch has hook up and fresh water and satellite tv and there is a large lawned area behind to sit or play on. Tents were mainly on one area. It has a lovely feel to the site and we visited twice. The pitches obviously need a few finishing touches at the edges and the toilet and grey water emptying is rather a long walk away.
The toilet and showers are new but there is no mirror or hairdryer or plug in the ladies. As I said its early days and none of these little niggles got in the way of a lovely stay.
Beware you don't miss the site entrance as it has another name on the board and only says campsite - this is due to be corrected I was told.
This is a lovely spacious site set in the pretty village of Fort Augustus with the Caledonian canal and Loch Ness and we will definitely visit again.
'A location like no other' is the advertising slogan, & for once, the advertising tells the truth. This is without doubt the loveliest & best site we have stayed at. If you want Blackpool Pleasure Beach or Alton Towers this not the place for you, but if you want peace, beauty, tranquility & a warm welcome, then Loch Ness Caravan Park is just the place. Stunning scenery, roomy pitches, spotless facilities (the best kept shower block I've ever come across), all within striking distance of local shops & facilities, with beach, fishing, food & drink on site, & warm, friendly folk (both owners & staff) made this a place we didn't want to leave, & we'll definitely return. Thanks to Bob & all the team, you made this the highlight of our holiday. The kids loved it as well. See you soon!
This has excellent views across Loch Ness, however, it is not child friendly. The play are is closed and has been used for the construction equipment for the new lodges built at the end of the site. There is no area for tents.
The showers and toilets, although limited, are very good.
The beach area is small. There is hardly anywhere to walk your dog either. We did not enjoy this site and they demand a minimum of 2 nights stay. Yes, excellent views, but no fun for the kids or dog. The bar is ok, though the food choice limited and meals are not served on a Sunday night.
If you are only adults without a dog, then you'll love this site.

This was on paper a beautiful site, with a children's play area and magnificent views. It did boast views that no other campsite had along this loch, but to be honest it was a strip of tarmac with pitches being made out of gravel. As previously stated, there is one shower per block, for the whole campsite. The staff were fab and bent over backwards, however the owners wife listened to a complaint that our electric wasn't working. She said it would be sorted. We went out and came back to find it hadn't been fixed and they had unplugged us from working electric on another pitch for the whole day. We had to buy more milk etc. We went and complained to the male owner, no apologies. Oh and there was no park for the kids, they had taken it down to put in rental lodges!
Spent 3 days here in June on our tour of Scotland.
Our pitch was Loch side with wonderful views, but difficult to reverse onto. The staff were helpful and pleasant.
Site was probably only about half full on the days we were there, and the clubhouse was closed. Toilets and showers were adequate, but that view would have changed had the site been full.
We, too, ate at the pub in the village and found the food there good.
Against - Showers, only one in each block, if being used in the mens block and the ladies started using there ones, the mens would stop running and just trickle down the wall and my wife said the same happened the other way round.
Site was full except for 2 spaces, when we enquired about the bar and food we were told the site wasn't busy enough, so they wouldn't be opening, this was mid June.
This was the dearest site we stayed on and the motorhome in front of us parked side on and completely blocked our view of the loch, and nothing was done about it.
Facilities average and adequate. Fresh water, hookups, dishwashing area, waste dump, toilets, shower and laundry. Everything was clean enough.
The site is a narrow strip of gravel and tarmac, no grass area. A small area of pebble lochside beach, nothing like the One Mile advertised.
Neat and tidy. Restaurant closed, even in late May. Covered smoking area.
At £20 a night this was the most expensive site we visited. Adequate but sterile and uninspiring.
Invermoriston, a mile up the road, is a small village worth a visit - we enjoyed our meal at the hotel, but didn't have time to see much else as it was late evening.
This site is set on a narrow strip with good views across Loch Ness and is about 1.5 miles from Invermoriston. The price was £20/night. The new hardstandings on the side nearest the loch have a substantial slope. Even using double ramps we could not get the van level. They only had one toilet block open despite the site being busy. The bar was also closed. The toilet facilities were clean but a bit dated. When we wanted to empty our waste tank the following morning we were told that they did not have a waste dump point.
