Absolutely fabulous site, great views over Loch Linnhe and the best sunsets ever seen and only 10 mins dive from Fort William.
We stayed at this site with our 2 young children, there was a park for them & hours of crab & shell hunting on the pebbled beach at the Loch side.
The toilet block was very clean with plenty of free hot water & considering the heating had broken is was considerably warm enough to have a shower & not be dithering when you got out.
The shop was very basic & only sold a handful of items but there was a very large Morrisons in Fort William & also a MacDonalds which was a nice treat for the kids.
The staff were very friendly & extremely helpful.
We took a day trip to the Isle of Mull which is a 45 min drive from Ardgour to the Lochaline ferry, with stunning views on the way & the kids got to see the wild deer, which was a bonus.
Tobermory (Balamory) Mull is definitely worth a trip & Calgary Bay with its golden sands.
The only bad thing I would say is DON'T eat off the regular chip van that visits 2 days a week because although the food is cook fresh the batter on the fish & sausage was like eating sponge & the chips were cooked in fat that tasted like it was 6 months old.
All in all, this was one of the loveliest sites we have ever visited & would definitely go back.
Congratulations CC on this wonderful site, it's now probably our most favourite. We stayed on what was the most frostiest weekend of the autumn so far where we witnessed the loch looking like glass, glimpsed an otter and seal and watched the most perfect red sunsets.
It's all been said before but we just can't extol the virtues of this site enough.Stunning location with captivating views, excellent clean facilities and very welcoming and helpful staff.
A drive down the coast to Oban is a must, vista after vista round every bend and make the effort if you can to walk to McCaigs Tower, the view is amazing.
Also recommended is the Sea Life/seal sanctuary on route to Oban. It's a wonderful informative and fun day out for adults and children alike.
Back to beautiful Bunree and one little gripe. Am sure this is not exclusive to this site but it seemed quite the norm here. Some fellow campers seemed to think the rules didn't apply to them.Dogs left off their leads to wander, noise until the wee small hours (surprised the wardens didn't pick up on this one) and people seemed to think it was ok to wander through fellow campers pitches, big sigh.
This is a great site, we arrived from Fort William to find it well sign posted from the main road with a nice wide access off the main road. The access road between main road and the site quickly narrows to a single track road but this section is controlled by traffic lights so there is no chance of you needing to back up to allow passing.
The site reception is small but covers all of the basics and was manned by helpful and friendly staff who explained the pitches they thought would be free and suggested we take a walk/ drive to find a pitch we liked the look of and then let them know at reception so they could issue us with the appropriate barrier fob, it was great for us and allowed us to locate a pitch was just on the water front with a fantastic view across the sea to the Peninsular on the other side.
Overall layout great pitches well spaced out to allow clear unobstructed view of the beach and sea. The facilities block was great not too far away very clean at all times and well thought through in its design.
There is a small children's play area which kept our 6 year old occupied for a short time. The site has a great stoney beach and benches on the grass area that separates pitches from beach so it makes for a lovely stroll with the opportunity to sit admire the views, which are stunning, or just contemplate life.
A fantastic site to which we will return and this time we will pick a non waterfront pitch so we can have the benefit of our awning. We would highly recommend this site!
We love it here; it's beautiful surroundings and a clean, well run site with a nice play area for little kids (as well as all the joys of playing on the beach.)
Minor gripes - some of the tap fittings at the motorhome fill points don't come off which means unless you have their end you need to wait for the one that does shift. There can be a queue for showers at busy times.
Well we visited this site at the end of July / early August (wife and I plus 2 kids aged 14 and 12) and we had a great time, despite the pretty dire weather! Last time I was in this neck of the woods I was doing the West Highland Way walk, and we had one day of rain, in an otherwise gloriously sunny week. Unfortunately, the opposite weather applied this year but it didn't put us off.
Weather aside, the site is marvellous. The location is fantastic (right on the lochside), the facilities are clean and well maintained and we found the wardens friendly and very helpful.
Out and about, you can walk or cycle to Corran Ferry; less than a mile away, and cross for free. We then cycled on the far side of the loch, in the direction of Fort William, along a relatively quiet road, before coming back for a quick pint (not cheap mind) in the pub prior to boarding the ferry back home again.
Further afield, we (me and the kids.Wife too scared!) went on the high ropes at the Nevis visit centre which was fun, and visited Oban and the Glencoe visitor centre, where we saw a very entertaining presentation about traditional highlanders, culminating in a musket firing!
For the fishermen (or fisherwomen) amongst you, this was for me, the best bit. We fished from the car park wall in Fort William (on left as you go in. Costs £1.50) either side of high tide, using feathers and I managed to bring home 9 good sized mackerel, which tasted great on the bbq! Also went trout fishing at the very scenic (even if you don't fish and just fancy a nice walk out) Glencoe Lochan. As you're entering Glencoe you turn left then immediately right, follow the road until you cross a small bridge, then turn left at the signpost. The car park is straight on, but bear left to buy your permit. It costs £7 per day for a 4 fish limit and they average 1.5. To 2lb. My son and I caught 7 between us using powerbait (the bait of choice here) fished about 6 feet down. If you don't catch for a while move on. It's by far the best way to fish it and you see more of the scenery.
As for the fishing on the site, you can fish the loch for free. Best area is as far away as you can get from the site entrance, near the tree line. It's a little deeper here with less weed and you lose less spinners, than the area near the river mouth. We used kosters or other silver fish type lures and had small pollock, codling and mackerel, plus a very tasty sea trout! Chaps fishing on the bottom mainly caught dogfish.
The site has a small play park and an indoor pool table near the drying room. Awnings are not allowed on lochside pitches which is good as you still have a view if you're behind them, and if you've got sky (for when it's really wet!) you can get a reasonable signal if you're nearer the loch.
In summary, a very enjoyable holiday in a beautiful location, on a friendly, well maintained site. Just be prepared for all kinds of weather.It's the price you pay for such scenery! Will be visiting again.

Superb site, well maintained and looked after. Superb staff, so helpful and nice. Not a lot for the kids, small play area, but still a great site. Toilets etc are great, no complaints.
Great location for other visits. Quiet when the bin lorry has gone. Sea fishing, but very weedy. A bit of a windy location, but still worth the stay. We stayed one night only, but it will be in our plans to return.
It doesn't get much better than this! Excellent location, stunning views, clean and well run site. Wardens were exceptionally friendly and ensured that all club rules were adhered to relating to parking and cycle riding on site.
We stayed a couple of nights and were sad to leave. This is a Jewell in the crown as far as we are concerned. If you are touring the west coast of Scotland, this is an essential camp site to visit. You won't be disappointed.
A lovely site. My wifes favourite CC site so far. I liked it's cosy feel with fantastic facilities. Amazing views I sat on the beach and watched seals bob the heads above the water. It was fantastic.
The dog walk is a bit small but if you walk out of the site, over the road there is a nice long dog walk up to a waterfall.
The staff and facilities were amazing, where as I would always use the caravan shower on this occasion I used theirs. They were lovely and hot.
Had a front lochside pitch, so no awning allowed, but the view down the loch more than made up for it. Like many people have said a fantastic site & location in a stunning area.
It was our first visit to Scotland & we packed in as much as we could. A walk direct from the site to Inchree falls, a drive to Stiel falls down Glen Nevis, the gondola up Aonoch Mor, Glen Etive & the stunning Glen Coe. A drive around the Peninsula across the Corran ferry to a lovely white sand beach at Ardtoe, the Glenfinan Viaduct, the Jacobite steam train to Mallaig & a tough walk up to the top of Ben Nevis.
As good a week we could of hoped for, if the weather is kind this site is hard to beat.
Beautiful site! Fell in love with the view from the 'van, the site is right on the shore of Loch Linnhe,and the views over the loch to the hills and mountains are spectacular. Beautiful sunsets. There is a good wee playpark, great toilet block, always spotless, the usual excellent caravan club standard. There was a toddler bathroom which was great for us with the 3 little ones. We had fantastic weather, clear skies, nice crisp autumn days which added to the experience. The site is located close to all the local amenities, not far from Fort William and the Glen Coe range. There was a small shop on site too.
Definitely worth a visit! Will be back regularly, my favourite site so far!

This is the most stunning site I think we have ever been to - we were on the front directly on the loch shore (to get one of these you need to book a 'non awning' pitch) though views were pretty great from most other pitches as far we could see.
Reception sells Milk, bread etc, otherwise its a drive to Fort William or Glencoe village. The walk up to the Waterfalls through Inchree was surprisingly good - even our 5 and 11 year old boys enjoyed it.
Surprisingly there are actually 3 pubs within walking distance of this site - the Four Seasons in Inchree on the other side of the main road from the access road, and 2 on either side of the Corran Narrows - the Corran Ferry Inn and the Ardgour Inn. The Ardgour Inn on the other side has tables outside overlooking the Loch, where we had some good hot sandwiches with a couple of beers.
There was a drinks / burger van outside the Corran Ferry Inn selling snacks, drinks, ice cream etc when we were there. Note to get to Corran Narrows you do have to walk along the pavement on the main A82 road, though you can cross over and detour through Inchree to avoid some of this. The ferry is free to pedestrians and cyclists
Our second visit and sites don't get any better than this. The location is a dream, lochside with stunning views of the mountains and on fine days, the sunsets are breathtaking. The facilities are excellent, abundant and very clean. Wardens do a fine job and were always very friendly with us.
We discovered a wonderful local restaurant specialising in seafood called the Loch Leven Seafood Cafe, it's signposted off the main road just after / before (depending on which direction you're travelling in) the big bridge at Ballachulish. Superb Scottish seafood at reasonable prices.
The dog walk on site is not very long but plenty of good walks out of the site, across the main road & into the forest.
There was a friendly welcome from the wardens and we were lucky to get the last remaining lochside pitch as we didn't wish to use our awning. The views from our pitch were lovely, but this was not the case for all pitches. In fact some seemed to have a view of the back of the toilet block. Unfortunately the shower block was not spotless, due to empty drinks bottles and bits of litter being discarded on the floor. Not the fault of the wardens, but says more about our fellow campers. The area for dog walking was very small, but then the rest of Scotland is on your doorstep! Easy to get to Fort William and a decent supermarket. Besides the Fort William area, Skye, Glencoe, Loch Ness and Oban are all within reach.
What a week, we got sunburn, soaked, nearly blown away.At least no snow.
Seriously though, this site is perhaps the best I have been on in 10 years of caravanning.
Toilet block was spotless, site well maintained and the views, regardless of the weather, were breathtaking.
Site is well placed for FT William and Oban with the usual shops and ferry's to the islands. Good site for walking and fishing.I even caught a few and I am a rubbish angler.
Only complaints I had was that 2 RV's ( the ones where the sides extend) were allowed to pitch on adjacent pitches to each other, right in front of us which blocked our view completely.We were on Pitch 72, they were on 97 and 98 (see CC map).
Apart from that, I honestly cannot fault this site.
PS.Best fishing is left of the posts in front of 22 / 23
We stayed at this site for an over night stop and from the moment we arrived the location was fantastic, along with the scenery, the wardens were very helpful, as we had a few motorhome hire problems ! the toilets and showers were very clean and tidy. Kids loved it and so did we.Only regret was that we missed the fish and chip van as we arrived a day after it had arrived ? definitely be going back :-)
