will be our first time in a touring caravan next spring and we fancy heading up to The Silver Sands of Morar area.only towed the van once and that was only the 6 miles from storage to my house when we bought it.i live near whitley bay and rather than do the distance in one we would like to take 2 days ,a over night stop on a site about 2 thirds of the way there,can anyone reccommend a nice site to stay on and one to stop at on the way,im in the caravan club and will be joining the camping and caravan club.also anyone thats done the run up there with a van that can tell me best way to go.whitley bay is in north tyneside for anyone who dosnt know
cheers--peter

Try Sunnyside Croft in Arisaig it's only about 10 mins drive from Silver Sands we camped there in August weather was excellent , campsite is great with access to the beach and stunning views of Eigg & Skye for both tents and caravans etc. Facilities are excellent it's the best site we have stayed on.

We completely agree with Hockeychic's comments about Sunnyside Croft at Arisaig - it is my favourite-ever site.
We stayed there in June this year.
Everything about it was brilliant.
Spotlessly clean and you only pay for the electricity that you use -
via pre-pay cards available 24 hours.
Friendly very helpful owners of the site.
Easy drive into Mallaig and the Jacobite train goes through Arisaig station.
I really didn't want to come home -
I have a postcard pinned up in my kitchen and day dream of going back there.
Ahhh - wonderful memories.
Another vote for Sunnyside here, clearly the best site in the area
Bunacaimbe Bay at Sunnyside provides sunsets to die for !
The whole area boasts some of the most stunning views you will ever see. We went up last week but had to return home before getting to Sunnyside due to my MIL passing away.
Managed to catch a wonderful rainbow just as we left.
Glad you didn't choose high season to visit Morar, as you can see the beach is just mobbed !
My wife and I are giving up our site warden job (well unless we find somewhere for the school holidays) and are planning an around Britain Tour taking in as much of the coast as possible.
The site highlighted by Tiggersmum, is a must me thinks
