 Just returned from 2 weeks on this lovely site. Location great, views great but very busy for the utilities provided. Plenty of camping space though. New toilet block but only 2 loo's in each and no urinals in the mens. Had to queue every time I went to the loo except late night or early morning. One washing up sink only so again queue's are long. We reckoned that there were about 60 units on site so about 180 people sharing 4 loos, one washing up sink and 4 showers. (Again 2 in each). I got to meet a lot of folk in queue's!
Admittedly a lot of the caravans will have been self contained of course so I guess won't all be using utilities.
Personally I didn't mind as the location etc was worth it but if you don't like the idea of not being able to use the loo when needed (sometimes queuing for 15 minutes or more)or having to queue to wash dishes in the only sink then you may want to think twice before going. Also remember no electric (thank goodness).
If you don't mind roughing it a bit and getting a bit smelly then you'll love this place.
Not that I'm trying to put folk off of course.

The most beautiful campsite ever! The beach looks like somewhere in the Caribbean and the sunsets are worth the trip alone. Excellent facilities, new shower block, freezer available.
Great location for walking, cycling, ferry to Iona and relaxing. The Keel Row pub is a 25 minute walk and serves great, fresh, hot food.Nothing fancy. Site is mostly flat and quite exposed to bring lots of tent pegs if you are camping but it's definitely worth it.
Fidden Farm has a wonderfully laid back atmosphere and you can't help but chill here. Stunning place and we cant wait to go back.

What a wonderful campsite in the most beautiful location.
Exposed site, not much shelter but we found a level spot in a bit of a dip near the far end of the campsite.
Really impressed with the facilities - clean & tidy. There is a freezer available, just inside the door of the men's facilities!
Nice pub, great place to sit and watch the world go by.
We used our pushbikes loads during the 4 days we were here. We also took them on the ferry to Iona and spent a wonderful day pootling around the almost traffic free lanes. Quenched our thirst in the pub whilst trying to decide which ferry to get back!
Would love to come back for a longer spell.Great sunsets as well. Really chilled out place.

As everyone else has said, this is a stunning location with fantastic views. However we were there for the May bank holiday weekend and it was very busy - we even witnessed pitch rage between a neighbouring Welsh couple and some Germans who set up a little too close just so they could have a direct view of the sea too. The site is listed as 40 pitches, our lad counted 98 'units' when we got there (pup tents outside caravans etc were counted as one) and more kept arriving over the w/e! When you have 2 men's loos, 2 men's showers and the same for women, with several hundred people (Most 'units' were families) on a site, it gets a little congested. We ended up taking showers at night to minimise the queue time. It was commonplace to see men peeing on the large boulders near the wash block as the queue to the loos was so long. Not a problem for me, but where were the girls meant to go? Either more sanitary facilities, restrict the numbers on site to a sensible number or forewarn people that the site can get jammed.

Lovely weather - dry, warm, no wind, some sun but mainly overcast. The most beautiful setting ever - the location on the beach at Fidden is stunning.
The facilities were excellent - new shower / toilet block, short walk from camping areas. Very quiet and peaceful location. About a 20 minute brisk walk into Fionnphort, pub was fine, food was good at lunchtime.
Loads to do in this area if you like walking - or sea-kayaking. I would definitely want to return to this campsite.

Our 6th visit to this site and good to see that last year's improved facilities ie. toilet and shower units are in perfect condition. If you can make the journey across the island you are well rewarded the site is fabulous.
You may need to be prepared to be self sufficient it's quite a way to the shop at Fionophort but don't forget to visit the RNLI shop there

Could only stay one night because it was the end of our touring holiday, but saved the best till last. What a fantastic place so much room with stunning views. Facilities are top notch. Not far from village a bike is ideal for getting around the local area. Loved it so much going back may 2010 for a longer stay. Good location for visiting Iona. Only down side, it is an exposed location so pick a pitch with this in mind.

What an amazing site! It took about an hour and a half to travel from the ferry at Craignure along a single track road.
The camping field goes up to the shoreline and we were able to park our camper van just a few feet from the beach. A wonderful beach with small coves and rock pools and a view looking out across the sea to Iona.
The showers/toilets/washrooms were all very modern and clean and the owners very welcoming.
We were the only visitors on site - everyone else must have heeded the weather warning, a slight breeze inland seems to equate to a howling gale on this exposed peninsular, we had a a rocky night but woke to blue skies and stunning 180 degree views.
Highly recommended!

You've heard of 'a room with a view' - well, this is a site with a view. We'd read about Fidden Farm on this very site, and it sounded like somewhere we'd like, so once we'd travelled from Cambridge to Mull and had a night to recover, we set out for Fidden on my husband's Harley Davidson, heaped with sleeping bags, mats and our faithful 23-year-old Spacepacker tent.
After 30 miles of single-track road that the Harley thoroughly enjoyed, we arrived at this stunning site, paid for two nights, and chose our pitch. As other contributors have said, you can pitch wherever you like; the field is massive, and a nice firm sandy soil with grass kept nicely cropped by the sheep that share it. And the view.! The site goes right down onto the beach - you could pitch there if you so desired. From there you can look out onto the Atlantic and a dramatic vista of huge tumbled granite boulders, with Iona over to the right. Some people had bought kayaks with them and paddled about in the bay, and it did look a lovely way to spend an evening!
Depending on where you pitch, it can be a very long walk to the facilities; some people used their cars, and others had bought pushbikes. The facilities themselves are terrific. The toilet and shower blocks are clean and new, with unlimited hot water at the press of a button; the washing up area is just inside the mens' bathroom (cast iron excuse to avoid washing up there, ladies!) with two sinks, only one of which has access to the hot water, but you can solve this by playing musical bowls with your neighbour.
The nearest shops are at Fionnphort, about a mile and a half away; they're small, but comprehensive.
We had planned to stay for longer, but after two nights we beat a rather ungraceful and very soggy retreat, chased by the unceasing rain-we had chosen a bad time to visit! However, with the excellent drainage and sandy soil, there was no problem with the pitches, even in the worst of the downpour.
We will go again - after all, where else can you have a farmer on a quad bike and two collies rounding up the sheep around your tent?! But we'll check the forecast first!

A wonderful remote relaxed site. New toilet block very good. We found the reception quite easily - signed door at the far end of the farmhouse. (but maybe it has changed?)
One or 2 amendments to the campsite details on the website, which states shop and pub 5m away.
The village of Fionnport is about 1.5miles away and has good pub with restaurant (The Keel Row) and Post Office/general store - very well stocked. Also the campsite is on the shore - with a lovely sandy beach just a stumble away from the tent.
The sheep keep the grass well trimmed. We had lots of weather while we were there - high winds and heavy showers, but the ground drains quite quickly! Wellies might be a good thing to pack!
