 Good basic site in a beautiful setting, we were lucky to get a sunset and the Cuillins were pink! Good facilities - just bear in mind that the washing up area is round the back of the toilet block and not lit apart from light shining through from the windows so take your lantern if you want to get your pots clean! As previous review states the warden is not a man of many words but is there on site in his caravan if you need him. We found this site great as it backs onto the river and the dog loved it.

The site has great views but is a bit exposed in windy weather; this was Scotland in September so that is not a surprise! Essential kit is a good sleeping bag with a hood. It was windy and raining while I stayed there and wet ground was a bit of an issue insofar as I had to inspect the ground before pitching - but no more than any other site in similar weather. Let's face it, camping is never going to be ideal in wet weather but that is part of the charm (Jeremy Clarkson - stay in your hotels!) This is a great base for exploring and I stayed two nights using the site just as a sleeping place. Eight pounds for a tent and 2 people; cheapest on my trip (I was charged over £15 in one place). It was windy and cold (no midges in this weather!) but there were plenty of shower cubicles and hot water was always available. I had a hot shower on both nights well after 11pm. There is also a washing machine and tumble dryer. There is a washing up area round the back of the shower block which was adequate. The guy collecting the money reminded me of Hagrid from Harry Potter; large and not much to say but pleasant enough. This site suited me very well; I don't like being shepherded Butlins-style and prefer the leave-you-to-it attitude. I did not use the hotel/restaurant across the way but it looked welcoming. No shop that I could see. I would use this place again. If you have never visited Skye you must put it on your list of places to go. Take the roads less-travelled for stunning scenery.

I've visited this site on 2 occasions, July 2006 and June 2007. The location is excellent. However, that's where the positives end. Drainage within the site is poor, so pitch on higher ground, or avoid this site altogether in wet weather. The quality of facilities is average, made worse by the fact they are not well maintained. The only time you're liable to see the warden is when he's collecting money. Midges can be a problem as the site is low lying, but this is Skye (bring repellent and a net). Overall this campsite is not worth the high price paid (double those for Glen brittle).

Nice campsite. Wonderful views. Hot showers, clean facilities. Reasonable price. Central position for walking.
Only down side is the noise from the road - we had moved from a very remote campsite with no traffic noise and were quite aware of the main road next to the site.
No shop nearby so make sure you bring everything you need. Pub across the road very convenient.

Disappointed with site after reading the positive reviews. Stunning location and adequate facilities. Hotel across the road OK but barn like and not a menu to our liking.
Hook up at £4 per night is most expensive I have come across and it failed at 10pm! Site owner very grudgingly gave a £2 refund but only after I became quite insistent.
Cant fault location and views but not a favourite of mine.

Cracking wee place! Apart from those midges it's a place worth visiting. Loadsa walks, cracking scenery and a handy wee hotel nearby if you fancy a meal.
I spoke to the guy who runs it and he is really genuine (you dont get that ripped of feeling at £4 a head).

Excellent site and cheap compared to a lot of other sites we've stayed on and the views are fantastic. Planned to stay three nights ended up staying a week, weather was so good and site was so relaxed.
Midgies can be a problem if you are not prepared, so make sure you are! we will be back for sure.

WHAT A PLACE!!!!!!!The camp site was EASY to find, the view was breathtaking. Right by the water surrounded by mountains. No booking was needed. The HOT showers were excellent. Central to most places.
We would recommend to all. But you do need to get provisions as it is a good distance to a shop or garage, except the hotel accross road does alcohol take-aways.
The only down fall in the MIDGES. But if you have the nets & spray you are fine. But you get them whereever you camp on skye.

We were impressed by the totally "laid back" "no frills and no fuss" attitude of the warden in this little gem of a campsite. The cost is minimal and the facilities, although basic compared with many campsites we have been on, are more than adequate. Hot showers at all times, friendly advice and welcome, and the setting of the campsite is absolutely perfect. No shop or other facilities on site, but a pub across the road - 2 minutes away! What more could a body ask for?
We would definitely return to this campsite as we felt very much a part of the environment.....excellent!

We were told by the local who gave us a lift from the ferry in Armadale (south on the Isle of Skye) that Sligachan was the place to be on Skye for campers. And it is! A campsite in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by beautiful mountains. No reception, just a boy who appears out of nowhere and asks you how long you will be staying, collects the money and then disappears again.
The hotel nearby serves nice food and drink, like "the mighty midge", which is lager.
