Reviewer: Nan_nan 4 reviews from this member

 This site's owners have made a real effort to be generous in their provision of space, the shower block facilities and separate laundry (with microwave). They are still upgrading and extending it. And their Avon Skin So Soft in the Reception shop was the cheapest I found in two weeks in Scotland. The biggish stream runs along the back of the site and is accessible. Also the chip shop a few minutes walk away is an award winning chic cafe with a Masterchef finalist in the kitchen. The Green Welly Stop with petrol station, cafe and lots of shopping and also a big Tourist Information centre and shop are just up the road. Finally local and regional busess stop outside and there are two train stations (Upper and Lower Tyndrum) in walking distance so you could access lots more from this site.

Reviewer: Maidmurron 6 reviews from this member

 Spent three nights here.We had a good sized pitch. Some seemed to be very near each other.It was very busy though due to good weather.

Toilets are warm and clean, plenty hot water and good showers. Only 3 showers and 4 toilets so it could get busy at times.

Dish washing area was very clean,with very hot water.

About 45 min-an hour in the car to Oban.

A few shops along the road and places to eat.

The pub could do with a clean up inside and out.

The wardens are very friendly and very hard working.They put in a lot of hours.

Midges are a pest late at night and early morning. We had plenty candles and 'avon skin so soft' which helped a lot. There are also midge machines about the site.

This is one of the best sites I have been to and can't wait to go back.

Reviewer: Rikaram 25 reviews from this member

 This is an excellent site. I was cycle touring with a tent and it was a pleasure to pitch here after a hard days cycle. The pitches are flat and well drained (oddly for this part of Scotland.It was raining)

Staff were very friendly without being overbearing. Toilet block was very clean and well maintained. You can get basics from the reception although there is a good chip shop / restaurant, shop and bar in very easy walking distance.

If all sites were like this I would be very happy

Reviewer: Avibabes 1 review from this member

 Fantastic place. First time camping and couldn't have been made more welcome. Pitched a large tent for just £16. Given the opportunity to choose our pitch- we put it next to the playpark (which is ideal for any age of child).

Had our 2 boys with us- 11 and 12 they played in the stream next to the campsite - building dams etc. Toilet block immaculate with excellent free showers. Had a good reception on an O2 phone( they also offer free wifi access). Large washing machine and tumble drier available. Small shop on site- where you'll find the friendly owners.

Quiet after 11 pm apart from a babbling brook and occasional traffic noise. Plenty of bunnies roaming on the site and fortunately hardly any midgies!

Small shops / restaurant / cafe within 5min walk and direct access to the West Highland Way. Loved it so much- booked a return trip in 2 weeks time as soon as we got home!

Reviewer: Babygoo 9 reviews from this member

 This is our first outing so have nothing to compare it to BUT. It is everything we wanted. It is a lovely kept site the toilets/showers are spotless (with music!) nice and warm.

Showers are free and powerful. The site should change it's name from leisure park because this put us off (until we read a review on here) it is a small site with a nice play area. All the pitches are well maintained and the owners are nice but not in your face.

It is close to the road but this did not effect our enjoyment. Join the West Highland Way or just sit in the pub close by (which welcomes dogs)

Good transport links and even the midgies weren't too bad. Oh and free wi-fi, what more could you ask for?

Reviewer: Zippie 10 reviews from this member

 The name of this site made me wonder what sort of site it was and I thought it didn’t cater for tourers but it’s a camp site with a mix of tents, caravans and motorhomes etc.

The toilet/shower facilities were a welcome relief after having poor facilities elsewhere. They were warm, clean and the showers were good and free.

There were quite a lot of notices on the walls in the ladies’ facilities perhaps if they were relocated, there would be room to put up hooks to hang up coats, wash bags etc. These were badly missed during my stay.

I felt sorry for those in tents when we were there as there was a lot of rain and there wasn’t really anywhere for them to go to get shelter or to cook. There was a microwave in the very small laundry room but a kettle and toaster would have been beneficial to those caught out in bad weather.

The dishwashing area was outside and kept clean.

Well laid out site with good sized pitches and friendly and helpful owners.

Would recommend this site.

Reviewer: Wee molly 1 review from this member

 We have visited this site twice now and have loved it, this site is great, spotless shower block with free hot powerful showers,cleaned at least 4-5 times a day! no complaints there.

The Irish couple that run the site are very friendly and make you so welcome,anything you need they are very approachable.

We stayed in the camp huts which are spotless and have electricity(a double socket) a kettle,heater and a pull switch for the ceiling light,the large ones you can fit two double air beds side by side and have room at the front for all your other things.

They have vending machines in the laundry room.

The site is very spacious,not rowdy and well kept also there is a children's big playhouse thing which is fenced off.

The site itself is right on the west highland way and you can cross the wee burn from the site and you are right on the path for nice walks.

A short walk away (5min) takes you to Paddys bar, Green welly and chip shop where you can sit in. Paddys bar in our opinion is ok for a drink but that's as far as I would go,the food isnt great at all! We usually if we don't cook go to the Drovers which is a 10-15min drive away and the food is fab there, great atmosphere etc.

All in all this is a great place to visit and I would recommend it to anyone.

 We stayed at this site for the second time this year and enjoyed both visits. We stayed in the luxury hikers hut the 2nd time which was very comfortable with a microwave, kettle and heater as well as very comfortable mattresses.

Showers, toilets and dish washing area were all clean and well maintained and the wardens couldn't have been more helpful.

A very peaceful site with lots of good walking nearby which the dog loved. Green Welly Stop good for basics and breakfast in the morning and other snacks / meals through the day, also pub and fish and chip shop in the village. We will be back!

Reviewer: Andy + Val 1 review from this member

 Just had 2 nights at the Pine Trees, beautiful weather and no midges.

Very friendly staff made us feel very welcome. Toilets and showers were immaculate.

A wee shop at reception with all the basics, (even helped us out with a cup of sugar).

The surrounding area is stunning with breathtaking views all around. Situated on the famous West Highland Way makes the local shops, pubs and chippy well used.

Perfectly situated for train trips to Oban or Fort William, the views from the train are worth the fare in itself.

I was very surprised with just how good this site was and will return soon.

Reviewer: Lisajk 22 reviews from this member

 I was slightly apprehensive about this site as anything with “leisure” in the title makes me expect rows of static caravans, seedy on-site bars, amusement arcades etc. However this is not the case, it is a quiet and immaculately well kept site with no statics and good separation between pitches (all hardstanding for caravans and campers, with hook-ups).

Beautifully clean toilets and showers (though you have to put up with Scottish piped music while you are in there which may leave you with a persistent strain of “Mull of Kintyre” in your head for the rest of your holiday.).

Site staff extremely friendly.

Main downside to the site was the midges, which were particularly bad - the worst we encountered on the trip, but that's Scotland. We treated them with more caution thereafter!

Tyndrum itself is nothing to write home about, we ate at Paddy’s Bar which was friendly enough but fairly basic, the food tasted as if it had been brought in from the nearest MacDonald’s (which, given the time it took to arrive, it may well have been) – but it was at least edible.

Reviewer: Alison + graham 1 review from this member

 We have just returned from this campsite after staying for five nights. We found the wardens to be very friendly, courteous and informative.

The site was very well kept with individual pitches all with their own water supply. There are laundry facilities with vending machines and a microwave.

The toilet block is excellent with free hot showers which are kept immaculate. We have a jack russell and even he was thought of, as dog poop bags are easily located through out the site.

Local facilities are very good and very close by; chip shop, pub restaurant, shops, train stations for days out to Oban, Fort William, Mallaig. On the whole this is a very good up and coming site, and we will be returning. Just hope it doesn't become so popular we can't get on !

Reviewer: VangoMan02 21 reviews from this member

 We (Wife, myself and dog ) stayed here for two nights in May.We were camping and had hookup,cost us about £30 for the two nights with hookup.This also included large Vango sunporch and our dog.

Good level pitches and very well kept grass with hardstanding for car next to pitch.

Being fairly new everything is still pristine.

The toilets are excellent, very clean and warm, showers were good,warm and good pressure.

Freeview hookup for caravanners think its about £1.50 per night.

All hardstanding for vans.

Some camping, caravanning and toiletry basics in reception.

The wardens are an Irish couple and cannot do enough to make you welcome,nothing is to much bother.

Chippie/Sandwich cafe only couple of hundred yards away and dogs welcome in Paddys Bar.

Good to see someone invest in this site which was closed for about 6-7 years,its a good base for day trips to Oban, Glencoe, Fort william and Inverary.

Looking forward to visiting again

Reviewer: Falkirk bairn 1 review from this member

 2nd time we have visited the site, was up at Easter and albeit the weather wasn't great we found this site to be very well equipped.

Went along at the may weekend with 3 other caravanners and had a great time, weather was good, site was great and my 8 year old made a few friends at the kids play park.

Very well kitted out site, 'all inclusive' pitches including (if you wish) freeview connection at an additional £1.50 per night.

Very happy to recommend this site to anyone, the wardens are very approachable and will assist when required.

All in all no complaints!

Reviewer: Girlwomble 3 reviews from this member

 Site was lovely with nice walks close-by. It's a shame in the (long) site renovation they have got rid of the swimming pool and sauna as they were great after a long day hill walking.

Children's playpark was excellent. Chipshop close-by is lovely.

Toilets and dish wash area were fantastic and always clean.

Loads of things to do within an hour or so drive and Tyndrum also has 2 train stations making day trips to Oban, Fort William or Mallaig possible.

My main gripe about the site was how expensive it was. £18 a night for 1 adult and a 3 year old in a tent! I'm more used to sites like C&CC sites where they charge per person so more used to paying about £10 a night. It's pricing like this that's making camping so expensive in the UK compared to elsewhere.

Site also has poor drainage for when it rains and it really rained when we were there.

The only thing that might stop me returning would be the price as overall the site is (and always has been) a winner

Reviewer: M1lrr 2 reviews from this member

 Really good site, very friendly welcome on arrival and were told just to choose our own pitch. Every pitch has its own water and a TV point (£1.50 per night).

Toilets and showers were modern and spotless.One of the things I liked most about this site was the flat rate per night charge, £19 per night, no extra for dogs, cats, kids, grannies or awnings. There was a small play area on site which seemed to be causing great hilarity among the children using it.

There isn't a lot in Tyndrum,but what there is is good.The nearby chippie has to be one of the best I've ever been to, huge portions freshly cooked mmmm

About 5 mins walk from the site is Paddy's Pub,great pint and very friendly,next door is the hotel. We ate there on the Saturday night and the food was excellent and reasonably priced.

Tyndrum is on the West Highland Way,so there is numerous good walks in the area. We'll be back
