Reviewer: Campermaid 20 reviews from this member

 Stopped here twice, on way up to Highlands and on the way home.

Nice, clean site. Great for views of Ben Nevis and also not far from walk up the great mountain.

Only thing we didn't like was the extra £4 on our second stopover just for hookup. (I only wanted to charge my phone really). Oh and no free wifi. How mean can they get.

Showers good and clean and friendly young staff (all seemed to be Americans).

Reviewer: Broic 16 reviews from this member

 Huge campsite located within glen nevis, right at the base of Ben Nevis. Excellent views.

Lots of tens/caravans so this is a busy campsite with plenty of kids/dogs and walkers. Most pitches are ok, but the forrest paddock was very water logged when we were there, also on a bit of a slope. Quiet after 10/11.

Facilities are excellent, clean with plenty of hot water. Laundry/washing up facilities. Small shop on site. Bar/cafe/restaurant less than a 5min walk.

Ideal for families or those walking up mountains. Not a campsite for those who want to chill out away from it all.

Expensive at £20 for two people, ideally prefer to pay about £16.

Can walk into Fort William via Cows Hill or along the road (think the road is quicker) approx 3miles. Plenty to see/do in Fort william - West highland museum and ben nevis distillery a must see!

 Stayed a couple of nights as close to Fort William with supermarket and local shops, library, boat trips, and not far from Neptune's staircase. Glen Nevis is a large site and for all ages and campers, I did not reserve a pitch as plenty of pitches available and the price is reasonable especially for what is available.

Facilities excellent with plenty of shower blocks and toilets and always serviced, there is also a laundry, shop, and the burger van very handy. There is also a restaurant off-site close by and a coffee shop.

Also just down the road is the Ben Nevis Visitor Centre and the beginning of the Ben Nevis walk, and after the walk the pub.

A happy site and will hopefully return.

Reviewer: CKC100 15 reviews from this member

 Busted this site for a couple of nights and found it to be really good. We were given a good pitch only mins from one of many of the shower blocks. We found the showers to be good and clean and serviced well to.

For the size of site which I never realised how big it was until we walked the dogs round the full site it was all clean and on a night it was still very quite.

It was handy to see the burger van on site as we decided to have a few drinks at the tent so food was good from it.

With being very close to Fort William there was plenty to do as well with a supermarket for stocking up.

Reviewer: Dave and Wendy 35 reviews from this member

 Had a very nice break here, this is a lovely flat site surrounded by fantastic views of mountains. Can get a bit boggy after heavy rain.

The shower/toilet block we used was kept clean but could do with a bit of modernization. Very helpful and friendly staff, has a small shop and a food bar ideal for a bacon butty in the mornings and various takeaway in the evenings. There is also a very good restaurant adjacent to the site, food was very good, booking is recommended as it can get busy.

This site is ideal for the start of a path up to Ben Nevis, and Fort William is only a short drive away. A Very good site which we will use again if in the area.

 My husband and myself have just returned from a wknd up at Glen Nevis Campsite.

Campsite was excellent, toilets where clean and the showers were amazing after a days hiking.

We went for a meal in town at Wetherspoon due to Glen Nevis Restaurant was full, but did return later for a few light refreshments.

Cant fault the site or the extremely friendly & most helpful staff here.

Can't wait to return.

 Bueatiful large site at a great location being at the foot of Ben Nevis, fantastic scenery and views.

Site was very well maintained, all areas clean and tidy. Huge shower blocks which were warm and lots of hot water.

Great shop on site that stocked lots of essentials and a pub just along the road serving good tasty food.

Only stayed one night as travelling further North, but would and will definitely return again.

Reviewer: Bendog 21 reviews from this member

 This is a huge site with stunning views of Ben Nevis and other mountains all around you, a bit on the expensive side but well worth it. Toilet and shower block clean but needs updating, there is a well stocked shop on site and a pub/restaurant up the road, also a mobile food. Van is open every day for chips/burgers etcetera. It is only two miles into Fort William for everything else you might need. This is a perfect site if you fancy a climb up Ben Nevis or just a walk around the most beautiful scenery, I will definitely visit again next time I'm up in Scotland 


Date of Visit: May 2015 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Piggle28 23 reviews from this member

 Ended up staying here twice during a month long trip to Scotland. Fabulous site with stunning views of Ben Nevis which had a snow topped cap. Clean warm toilets and shower rooms, slightly dated but proper taps not the dreaded push buttons so you could get the temperature you wanted, radio 2 playing which was nice, good laundry and a warm pot wash room, close enough to Fort William for shopping, eating out ect but far enough away to give you that real get away from it feeling. Yes it is a large site but don't let that put you off as there is good space between pitches and quiet and peaceful at night. Would definitely return for a third time! Also you have a pub/restaurant 500 metres up the road which was very good and reasonably priced.

 Stayed here for one night which we pre-booked and our pitch was allocated in advance. We had electric hook up and a water tap on the pitch. Good clean facilities. We didn't use the laundry but there were several machines and dryers there.

The views were stunning though it rained heavily overnight and Ben Nevis was shrouded in mist. There was even snow on the mountains which had fallen overnight.

Pitches were level and the whole site was well maintained. My grandson would have liked the playground but as it had rained so much we didn't use it.

We drove into Fort William in the morning and took the Crannog cruise from the pier and returned to a 3 course lunch. The price was £25 each for both which was superb value. The boat cruise was excellent. The most informative oommentary I have experienced though we didn't see much wildlife and fortunately the rain held off. The lunch was great and I would highly recommend it.

The site is in a beautiful location and I would stay there again.

 Arrived on a Saturday and was given clear directions to our fully-serviced pitch.

The views are outstanding, and the start of the Mountain Path up Ben Nevis is just a few minutes walk away.

The site is a good size and the reception & shop are well maintained and stocked. The staff are helpful and friendly.

The ablutions and laundry facilities are and well maintained, modern and couldn't really be faulted to any degree.

Local restaurant was good and not too pricey.

Personally, we loved it. Will definitely be heading back.

Reviewer: Zeryx 18 reviews from this member

 We decided to visit this site after reading good reviews. Pre booked and paid in advance we arrived late afternoon. The guy on reception was busy on the phone and as we had been waiting a while another man came through from the shop and checked us in, handed us a map of the site and told us to choose a pitch anywhere on the Spruce field. Which we did. After walking on the Saturday we arrived back at our tent yo find a monstrous tent (in comparison to ours) pitched less than 4 feet away from the side of ours - intimidating and invasion of our personal space. The occupants of the tent proceeded to speak very loudly and host an evening of talking and joking with the occupants of the tent the other side of them and a manically laughing child. No consideration for us who were trying to sleep from around 2100! As we were preparing to leave on Sunday morning (as instructed to be away by midday) one of the site staff came to tell us we were on someone else's pitch and the intimidating tent next to us was one if three who had pre booked three pitches together (no sign of a third tent and surely if we were told we couldn't check in before 1400 the same would apply to anyone else arriving on the Sunday). Fail to see why 1. If they had booked specific pitches we were told to select anywhere 2. If that was the case why weren't their pitches just changed to allow three together 3. If the third tent wasn't arriving until the Sunday what was the issue? And finally where were the staff when they pitched their tent on top of ours? (Their regulations state leave 4 meters between tents).

Other than this damper on our stay it's a lovely site and nice facilities, a really nice toilet/shower block and indoor skullery.

Reviewer: Galdeb69 7 reviews from this member

 A lovely large site with plenty of pitchs and fab views of Ben Nevis and surrounding hills.

Plenty of toilets and all very clean, only downside is the on site shop which is very, very expensive, seriously don't use it unless you have to, everything is well over 50% dearer then the local supermarket, it really leaves you feeling ripped off, and who knows what the many foreign visitors must feel about it. The local supermarket in Fort William is 2 miles away.

Reviewer: Gypsy lady 4 reviews from this member

 This camp site is in a most marvellous location at the foot of Ben nevis. Its facilities are clean and tidy despite some bad weather when I stayed. Its a very busy site but we had adequate room around our caravan.

The wardens were pleasant and obliging and gave us good sound advice on the local walks. We are not fit enough to climb Ben Nevis.

Good food at Weatherspoons in Fort william if you want to eat out.

Reviewer: Freyja 56 reviews from this member

 Love this site. Stayed lots of times. Love it. Very large, no need to book. Very well kept site. Just over 2 miles to Fort William. Morrisons store there, open 7 days at 8am. Friendly staff. Toilet and shower block very clean. Cleaned every day. Shower stalls large, cold and hot water taps to adjust showers. £ 39. 60 For 2 nights, pick your pitch, hard standing. Small stream runs through the site, my dog loves it. Burger van on site. Good chip shop in Fort William. Barrier closes at 11pm at night. We took a run to Fort Augustus and watched the boats going through the lock. Will return to this site again, one of my favourites.
