 We have stayed at the Glen Nevis Holiday Park on several occasions now, and have enjoyed each visit there.
Overall, this is a reasonably priced, large, but surprisingly quite campsite which is situated in a lovely part of Scotland, with beautiful scenery and tranquil surroundings, being over looked by Nevis Range.
When we arrived at reception, the lady was very friendly, helpful and provided us with a map of the site and directions to our reserved (at a cost of £10, in the form of a non-refundable deposit, during the time of booking) camping pitch, with EHU.
While some of the camping fields are not set out in order of pitches, the EHU pitches were individually numbered and were large enough for to cater up to very large tents, without being too close to your neighbours. The grounds throughout the campsite were tidy and very well maintained.
Facilities on this campsite are good, and despite it being a busy, but well spread out site, the facilities such as the scullery, toilets and showers (which were free – always an added bonus) were never overcrowded, with no need to queue, etc.
One criticism is that the areas around the washroom sinks, toilet cubicles and the scullery behind the Spruce Field could all benefit from more regular deep cleaning.
At reception, there is a reasonably well stocked shop, but the prices are above average and a trip into Fort William, which is only a couple of miles away, is worth a trip for food and other essentials.
There is also a restaurant and lounge bar on this campsite and although we have never dined here, the prices appear to be reasonable; although we did have a few drinks (again not overinflated prices) and sat outside in the sun. Again, the staff working here were very pleasant, helpful and hardworking.
We would highly recommend this campsite and will no doubt be returning at some point in the near future.

I agree with everything everyone else has said about this site - pretty, clean, spacious and very welcoming. Pub and restaurant are literally at the end of the site - we ate there twice, 1 meal was OK and the other really nice and I didn't think the price was too bad.
Great location for the Ben and a lovely little walk at the end of the Glen Rd - a half hour walk to a stunning waterfall.
Fort William has all the amenities you might want, including a Morrison's.
So, a lovely site and one I would be really happy to return to at some stage in the future

Just got back from a weekend walking around here, what a brilliant place. For 4 adults to stay for 2 night cost 38 quid, which was cheaper than a lot of other sites that I've been on.
The lady on reception was helpful and cheerful, pointing out on the map to the areas that we could stay.
The toilet block was the best I think I've ever been in, heated, clean and with free showers.
As mentioned by other reviews the midges come out in force in the evening which may be a problem, a good time to take a 20 minute walk to the Ben Nevis inn (uphill and unlight footpaths) which serves real ales and good food.
Apart from the stream running through the campsite I didn't see much for kids to do although it is a large enough site for them to run free and play together.
Would definitely recommend.

We stayed for 4 nights over Easter and had a great time. This is a wonderful site in a wonderful location. We wanted to climb 'The Ben' but the weather wasn't right for us. However there are plenty of other walks to do from the site, we did 2 separate and very different walks and they were great.
We had lunch at the site restaurant and the food and service were excellent.
The shop is well stocked and the staff very helpful, offering friendly advice on the local area.
The site is well maintained and well laid out with excellent views from the ample sized, well priced pitches.
We will definitely go back, not just to climb 'The Ben' but because of the welcome we were given and the facilities available.

What can I say. This was our third stop of our scotland tour.
The views were breath taking and the facilities was first class and the staff were very helpful and friendly.
The short walk to the pub is nothing, even for the laziest of us. I've been told by the other half that we are going to go again! the toilets and showers was in perfect condition and I loved the fact it had a motorhome service area. Makes the onboard tanks easy to fill.
Thank you all for making our stay the best!

An enjoyable stay in this beautiful setting, handy for Ben Nevis, the railway to Mallaig, Great Glen Way etc.
Approx 10 minutes cycle from Fort William, good road surface and level - OK for tired legs!
A lovely site, well maintained despite being near end of season, good hot showers and washing / drying area, welcoming and unfussy.
Level hard standing, lovely hedges and superb views of the peaks (or mist!). Good local info from reception staff.
We ate at the Ben Nevis Inn, the other side of the river - bridge access for walkers via Visitor Centre. Good ale and food.
Late arrivals area outside. We'll be back!

Very nice campsite, facilities are fantastic. Showers lovely and hot and not timed buttons, taps, yippee! Really enjoyed radio 2 being played in the facilities area. Laundry very useful and not too pricey, enough machines. Lots of walking in the area and fort William not too far away. Lots of choice on pitches all flat and sheltered from wind, nice restaurant just next door to the site worth a visit. Would definitely visit again and priced right for the facilities, great not having to book and efficient service on arrival.

Stayed here over the weekend (2nd to the 4th)very friendly greeting on signing in and as I have read from other reviews. The burger van was open, a good addition. Set up my tent to be greeted from next door with the words 'fancy a brew' - you bet, what a friendly couple to be camped next to. Anyway the weather took another turn, more rain and then in to fort William for some shopping, Morrisons, back to the tent and a burger and a cup of tea and a chin wag with the guy behind the counter, more friendly staff, who informed me that there was to be a race up ben nevis on Saturday, approx 600 to take part
I have stayed here loads of times and the facilities have always been to my eye very good. Got some excellent photos on the Saturday as I came down from the summit of the helicopter dropping off marshalls for the race, also some videos of the racers. The only problem with doing nevis on a saturday is the shear volume of people on the paths including the three peakers who I met and who all looked miserable as sin as they still had 2 walks and 2 drives in front of them
Over all a good weekend just a pity the weather had been a wee bit better and I will definitely be using this site again

Another overnight stop on our journey north. The second time I have stayed at this site.
No pre booking is require for tents, just fill in a booking slip and stand in the queue at reception.
After the previous weeks rain, we chose a spot with a slight slope to aid drainage.
The facilities are a bit dated, but very clean. We were surprised at the lack of night time noise, expecting a site this big to be a bit loud, but everything had died down by 23:00.
The shop is extremely well stocked, they obviously know their clients well.
At £26. 50 in high season, this was the cheapest night we had for a family of four with backpacker tents.

We have visited this site many times now, the location is beautiful situated at the bottom of Ben Nevis, the surrounding area of Fort William is perfect for visiting local attractions like the Jacobite steam train. The campsite is well kept with great size pitches with plenty of space for a large tent and car. The facilities are amazing toilets and showers always clean even in the busy period. Staff are friendly and helpful, and there is a shop on site, selling all sorts for your needs for camping holiday. All in all a great site and we will always return when in Scotland.
