This was one of the stand out sites of our Summer holiday. It's a big site and has a definite family holiday atmosphere.
On arrival, you check in at the large reception that includes a well stocked shop. Once checked in, a warden guides you to your pitch and explains all of the facilities.
Many of the pitches are located to take full advantage of the views across the water to Mull which leave you staring open mouthed when you first arrive.
There are plenty of toilets and showers and everything is top quality and well maintained. There are also good washing up facilities.
Immediatley opposite the site there is a bus stop where you can catch the bus into Oban. The bus also passes through Connell which is much smaller but still has a couple of nice places to eat. Also near to Connell you can take a boat trip up Loch Etive which is well worth the effort.
This was one of the sites we were sad to leave and would have liked a longer stay. Highly recommended.
This is a fabulous site with beautiful sunsets and views. The staff could not have been more helpful. Our towcar broke down on the way so we arrived with the RAC. The staff towed our van and set it all up for us and were realy helpful with details of car hire etc
We were metres from the water and although it was a large site it was surprisingy quiet and felt a lot smaller
Its a very well organised site. The showers and toilets were very clean and we never had to wait for a shower. There is a well stocked shop and plenty of info on the area. There was plenty of room between pitches and the whole place felt very relaxing.
Lots to do in the area. Oban. Fort William. Mull. Iona. Staffa. Easdale Island and Luing are just some of the things we did in the week we were there
This site is immaculate, well manicured grounds with spotless facilities, the most amazing views across to Mull and access to the beach direct from the campsite.
If you like to pitch in perfect rows, in the exact spot that the warden allocates, amongst 200+ other campers and abide by dozens of rules then this is the site for you.
Unfortunately for us it is not our idea of camping, it was not dissimilar to holidaying on a static caravan site.
We had pre-booked but on arrival were told that all the best pitches had been allocated to people that had just turned up, in fact our booking wasn't even entered into the computer but just scribbled on a bit of paper.
The staff were efficient but officious and I had a bit of an argument over the size of our van, which they insisted that at 6.10m was a large flat top - whatever that is! My husband was reprimanded for dropping me off at reception before parking up in the carpark. Apparently he should have gone directly to the parking area before I got out. Not a good start.
Once booked in we were taken to your pitch by a warden, where we had to park up in the exact spot allocated, and given a quick rundown of the facilities and rules, this is in addition to the A4 rule sheet handed out at reception and the rule reminders that are posted all over the site!
We were asked not to use more than 1 electrical appliance at a time for fear of blowing the electric circuit, which strangely for the park size was only 10amp.
It became quickly apparent to us that only caravans were allowed to pitch in the front 3 rows and therefore in a campervan or motorhome you would never be allocated a beachside pitch.
There is a cycle route that runs through the campsite, for most of its route (which I think runs from Oban to Fort William) its wide and tarmacked. From Benderloch to Connel its nothing more than a muddy path. However it allowed off road walking into Benderloch village, nice coffee shop; and out to the falls at Connel where the hotel allows dogs in the public bar. Both very friendly.
Oban is accessible by an hourly bus service from the site entrance where ther are ferry and train services. Next to the ferry terminal is a lovely fish / shell fish bar and behind this is a good fishmongers.
The Creagan Inn offers a free taxi service to and from the site, well worth a visit, again dog friendly, good selection of ales and wine and superb food.
Would I stay here again? definitely not, its not our cup of tea, we prefer something a bit more rustic and higgledy pickedy.
Very big site but really well looked after by the staff. Third visit to the site during the last 4 years. You can be a long way from the shower blocks if at the far end.
Great location overlooking the sea, which is shallow for youngsters to swim in. My one concern is that motorised boats, that can be launched from a slipway on the beach, don't seem to be segregated from areas where swimmers are and only niggle was that 2 out of the 3 washing machines were out of order.
Despite the large size of the site, I never had to queue for the showers(kept nice and clean) during the week I was there. 2 separate shower blocks, so one always open.
Good shop on site selling caravan spares as well as wide range of food. As exposed to the sea on the front pitches make sure your awning is well pegged down.
Great sun sets over the bay when the weather is nice. Bus to Oban leaves outside the site (£3. 30 return)
This is the best site we have ever been to! There are 2 toilet blocks; the new one by the shop is state of the art and the other is more than adequate and better than most CC facilities.
The thing that really made it for me was the view. We had a pitch facing the loch with nothing between us and the beach.
The staff are friendly and the shop is really well stocked. We needed rock pegs and rubber bands for the awning and they had both and more. I would agree that the fresh morning rolls are lovely and are 25p each!
There is loads to do in Oban and around. £15 to take the bikes over to Kerrera on the ferry was fantastic, be sure to stop at the gorgeous coffee shop which also sells food. The applejuice and spring water 'refresher' was gorgeous.
In Oban itself, try fish and chips from the chippy on George street - the best we tasted. Or the two seafood shacks by the harbour; one is round the corner near the Calmac ferry office and does great mussels in wine and garlic. Had the scallops at the first one on the quay cooked in garlic butter. To die for!
We went to mull for the day and Tobermorey was nice and not tacky as had imagined. Calgary beach was worth the drive, but get there earlier than we did as the little car park was full. White sand and blue sea; beautiful.
I didn't notice any of the staff being stand offish. They were charming and friendly; the youngsters that work there work very hard and the site is immaculate.
Hubby did complain about the one toilet emptying point being quite a stroll away, but I think he enjoyed 20 mins away from the kids really!
Overall this site is fantastic. Please stay away so I can get my pitch for next year!
Easy site to find and a big wide entrance, Staff very helpful and friendly and we got guided to a big hardstanding pitch which had fantastic views. The weather on our visit was appalling with record rainfall but this was not a problem at this site and the puddles very quickly dried out. Bus stop outside entrance meant a short ride into Oban.
Facilities all very modern, heated and spotless, never needed to queue and site was quite busy.
Would we go back? yes definitely the views looking out of the window are just stunning and you do not get tired of looking at them.
We can recommend the restaurant across from the harbour in Oban which means you catch the little ferry, a bit different! and the scallops are just fantastic
We had a family holiday with my parents in their caravan and friends in theirs. We were all pitched together, which was great, the views were amazing. What a treat to wake up every day to the amazing view of the calm waters.
The toilet and shower facilities were great, very clean and plenty of them. I liked having plug points and large mirrors in the ladies to enable me to 'escape' for a while for a shower and dry my hair away from the kids!
The play area was lovely for the children we have a 7 year old and a 20 month old, they both loved it. The shop was well stocked with everything we needed (including midge repellent!).
Oban itself was lovely, we liked the fresh fish stall outside the ferry terminal.
We were very lucky with the weather during our 1 week stay and had a full week of sunshine, whilst the rest of britain was getting hammered with rain. Whoever said it always rains in Scotland??
All in all, fantastic site, fantastic location. We hope to be back.
Very pretty site overlooking the sea next to airport but is is small only saw a couple of planes a day (but did see air sea rescue helicopter come in to refuel I was walking passed the airport on beach at time awesome).
The staff were friendly and helpful, the toilet block clean warm and plenty of basins and showers with plenty of hot water. You can walk to a pub on the beach and by the side of airport but it was a long way for us OAPs
There is a bus out side into Oban and we went in to town and took a ferry over to Mull nice trip, but when you land you really need a car or catch a bus to see the island.
On the harbour they were selling fresh sea food and hot langoustine in garlic butter heaven.
There is a shop on site that sells all you need including papers and the soft morning rolls ( I got addicted to them). I have got to say to all the staff that helped us out when our canopy took off and damaged the motor home and my husbands leg. A big thank you for every thing you did his leg is still on going healing a slow process but your help with dressings was very much appreciated. We will be back.
This large site is split into 3 areas - we were placed on site 3, a stunning location next to the beach and very handy for the dog walk. This is the quietest end of the site and nearest to Benderloch (10 minute walk).
The village has a good local shop, coffee shop, caravan spares shop, post office and fuel. Also access to woodland walks with lovely views.
Site facilities a little dated but clean. If you do not intend to move your van, it can be a long walk from parts of the site to toilet block and toilet emptying points.
Good shop on site, though some of the staff can appear uninterested. Pitches are allocated and there are hardstandings and electric.
Good bus service from site (bus stop outside site entrance) into Oban
This is large site, with over 200 pitches, we arrived and where taken to our pitch by the warden, the view was great, nothing in front of us, and quite close to the toilet block, if you are put at the either end its a long way to the toilet and shower blocks. There are 2 toilet block, one we didn't use so I cannot comment, the showers were clean, 8 showers so if the place was full I would expect a wait, the water was only luke warm on four of the mornings, which was not good. The site itself is kept very clean, and has good dog walks, either on the beach, or the disused railway which runs through the middle of the site. The site is right next to the Airport, which we thought would be a noise factor but its only used by light aircraft, well 1 that we saw, so that wasn't a problem.
Oban 8 mile away is a good shopping center with a number of supermarkets.
Would we go back not to this site too big, rows and rows of caravans, not for us, but it was a good base to go other places.
What a lovely site! Perfectly situated looking over the beach with fantastic views to Mull etc. Pitches are massive and very cleverly spaced to allow sea views from every pitch. It is big and we found we used our bikes to get around the site.
Bus stop just outside the site to get a bus into Oban. Reasonable pub a 5 minute bike ride away on the road back into Oban towards the bridge - would probably be a 20 min walk. We eat in another pub a bit further on at the foot of the bridge - very nice.
Went on a lovely walk around Kerrer Island (probably the wrong spelling!)which took about 3 hours. Apparently there is a great chippy in the next village in the opposite direction to the pubs.
We only stayed 2 nights but I can see how you could easily stay for longer and have a good old fashioned beach holiday.
All told, all you would expect from a Caravan Club site, clean, efficient, well organised and a pleasant welcome. A nice base to vist Oban and its surrounding area's - but finally, don't ignore the midges on a lovely evening sitting looking at the sunset with a beer - they bite!
We LOVE this place and go every summer for three weeks (wish it was three months). Our kids were between 2 and 7 when we first went and are now between 11 and 16, and they have all always really enjoyed their holidays. The first time we went, we set up in drizzly rain, fed the kids, closed the curtains for the evening and were astonished in the morning to see that the Isle of Mull had appeared overnight - it comes and goes with the weather!
If your idea of the perfect caravan site involves a bar and evening entertainment this isn't for you (there is a shop, toilets, showers and a laundry) but if you like beautiful views from the caravan (the sunsets are beyond description), coastal path walking (walk a couple of miles and you get to a pub), paddling in the sea (we've graduated to an inflatable kayak and wetsuits but started with paddling), and dog walking along the long (stony) beach, then you'll love this. When the tide is in, the sea gets deep quite quickly, but when the tide is out, it is shallow for a long way, so is great for kids to play in.
It's beautifully kept, with double hard standings on most pitches and plenty of room between outfits. You have to have a caravan, a motor home or a trailer tent, though, as tents aren't allowed except as pup tents alongside your outfit.
Half of the caravan site is Caravan Club but not all of it so you don't need to be a member. There are seasonal pitches available.
It can be on the breezy side if the wind gets up as there is no shelter, so awnings benefit from storm ties, unless you want to lie awake all night worrying!
If you're a pensioner with a free bus pass, you can get on the bus to Oban from a stop right outside the site. Likewise if you're in a big huge motorhome that you don't fancy negotiating the narrow streets and small car parks of Oban in.
Days out to Ben Nevis, Glencoe, the islands such as Mull, Iona and Staffa, are all brilliant things to do.
There are midges, like anywhere in Scotland, but they are much less of an issue than in many other places.
When it's sunny there can be no better place in the world. Unfortunately it is - shock horror - not always sunny!
This is one of the biggest sites we have visited, but the pitches were well spaced out so you didn't feel hemmed in. Toilets & showers were excellent, clean & tidy with lots of hot water.
Great dog walk in the centre of the site-the disused railway line.
We loved the fact that each pitch had a sea view-absolutely magnificent!:)
It's just a fw minutes drive into Oban where you'll find all the shops you need. Try the 3 Isles Tour -Mull /Iona /Staffa, expensive, but well worth it especially as our 2 dogs were allowed to come too!
Stayed here 4 nights and loved it even though the weather wasn't great. View from the pitch across to the islands is amazing, unfortunately we didn't see any of the sunsets due to the poor weather but did see lots of rainbows.
Friendly staff on arrival and Tony who showed us to our pitch was really helpful pointing out the facilities and little tips to avoid the full force of the wind on the caravan!
We had been given a pitch near to the toilet block as my husband has walking difficulties and I had read on previous reviews that it can be quite a walk! We found the facilities to be really good and used the laundry which was very efficient.
The wardens regularly drove around the site which was well looked after. TV reception was good and mobile worked fine on the site but lost the signal close by.
The shop in reception was good although they didn't have much fresh veg or meats, we bought fish from Loch Fyne on one journey and meat from the butcher in Oban.
We visited Fort William and went up the cable car at the Nevis range. Also visited Inverary and Oban. T
his is a lovely site and will try and return with hopefully better weather!
Third stay at this site, have to say we were disappointed with the falling standards.
Checking in was a very abrupt, not so friendly experience, so please if you are Caravan Club members do not forget your card
For a site of this size, the showers and toilets could do to be cleaned more often, no hand sanitizers refilled, no toilet paper at times, lights&door catches were broken, general tidiness was lacking. We got the feeling that standards have slipped and it did feel a bit soul-less.
We will stick to smaller sites in future and enjoy more personal attention.
