 It is what it is. It’s cheap, perfectly suited for gills bay ferry.
We stayed overnight for early am ferry next day. It’s a great situation with wonderful views.
It’s cheap and fine to park overnight with EHU Facilities not so great. Toilet area was clean enough and there has been an attempt to make it bright with paint. You are limited to 10 min shower time. Dull, dark and not appealing at all so we didn’t use them. No grey waste disposal point at all (told just to let water out up a track). Chemical disposal point disgusting I’m afraid.
Site is slightly sloping, all hardstanding, very car park like.
It’s not somewhere I’d chose to spend time for anything other than an overnight park, but the price does reflect that which is fair enough.

This is a lovely little site, especially for campervans and caravans looking for a night or two near (but outside) of John O’Groats. Sorry, I can’t comment on tent facilities as a one night stay in October meant that I parked on the gravel area at the front, and was thrilled to have EHU and a heated facility block for a VERY reasonable fee. Happy to pay cash at this small site which as you can tell is an addition to a home, not a commercial venture. The site facilities were clearly created with love and care, and continue to be maintained in the same fashion.
We dropped in one tea-time, very pleased to spot a site that was open in October while doing a late season NC500 circuit. The house door was opened and we were immediately invited to step in out of the wind but the lovely owner John.
OK so there’s only one shower and two toilets for each gender… but that’s plenty. The shower have large changing areas with heaters, benches, lot of hooks etc. The shower instructions tell you how to get the best out of them and promise up to 10 minutes of hot water. I can’t imagine needing any longer. Not only is there a hand drier in the ladies, but also a hairdryer and a standard electrical socket- facilities that many commercial sites don’t bother with. Oh and HEATING ! I cannot say enough about how well built and equipped the site facilities are, how clean they are… not a cobweb in sight, and the plushest loo roll of any campsite I’ve visited in Scotland!
Road noise? Ha! There’s not much traffic on this road through the evening/night.

Regarding Stroma View Camping site. I read some reviews and when I arrived was somewhat confused. You don't pay anything until you get there so if you don't like it why stay? I didn't understand the 'looking enviously' - envious of whom? I was at stroma View during early August and found it suitable enough. It's not the 'Ritz' but what does anyone want for £13. 00 which is what it cost the two of us in a largish tent.
Camping here was basic and cheap, just what it says on its website - which by the way is the only website I could find that gives prices and tells you exactly what's there - and as I said before you don't pay till you get there.
It's just a campsite, somewhere you stay for a few facilities. There may be nothing to do in the area, but that's hardly the fault of the campsite. I asked a member of the campsite staff and was told that if you want to leave you're only charged per hour for the time you actually stayed - I stayed. The one up the road had nothing this one didn't - except a lot more noise.
Oh! and by the way, we found the water fill-up hose easily [it took two minutes to find] although we didn't need it.

This small site is on the south side of the main Thurso to John O'Groats road. The road is fairly busy during the day but between 7 pm and 7 am we were not at all bothered by road noise. All pitches are hardstanding and slightly sloping.
There are plenty EHUs, the only drinking water point I could find was in the wash-up, the toilets and showers looked clean but a bit dated - we did not use them as we prefer our own facilities. The chemical disposal point is -- unique but functional!
The owners were friendly and came round in the morning to see if everything was OK.
This site is handy for the ferry terminal at Gills Bay and very reasonably priced.

Been motorhoming for 2 years and this is the worst site I've visited. No fresh water supply suitable for tank filling. (apparently up an adjacent track- but couldn't find it. Nothing in the vicinity. Getting the ferry from J. O. G. I looked enviously at the site there and would have gladly paid any extra it would have cost.

Very handy site for John O'Groats, and the surrounding area. Intended to catch Ferry from Gills Bay to Orkney so ideally sited for this. Site has solid ground for campervans in wet and windy March. Given how windy it was the site was quite sheltered. Small site, wih friendly owner and very reasonably priced. Shower and bathrooms fine and clean. Small number of spaces and used electric hook up and all was fine.

Open aspect on slightly sloping ground. Wedges needed for motorhomes. Gravel pitches so keeps feet clean! Very clean ad warm toilets, showers, dish wash. Super friendly owners. A few minutes from John o' groats, just off road to the west. Very quiet at night. Great views of Stroma and Orkney.

This small site is adjacent to the main road to J o G but we had no problems with traffic noise. The facilities are clean, spacious but old fashioned. Showers are free with plentiful hot water. Tourers and m/homes go on gravel area a reasonable distance apart. The owners are friendly and helpful

We have just had 2 nights at this superb little site, the owners were very welcoming and friendly, the site is ideally placed for both the northern coastal route, and the ferries for anyone making the onward journey to the Orkney Islands. The toilet and shower block was more than adequate with plenty of hot water, and nice and clean. A visit to Duncansby Head is definitely something not to miss as the views across the Pentland Firth are stunning. This is a true value for money campsite, clean, relaxed, and welcoming. We will definitely return the next time we are in the area. Thank You To the owners for a pleasant, enjoyable stay.

A little gem, Just arrived at the site, From the road the toilets look a bit tatty but when you go in well you will see for yourself, They are so clean and showers has lovely hot water and the block has heating so always warm, They have water, toilet emptying area, Washing and cooking area, Dog walking area, And elec hook up all for £6. 50 per person, And to finish it of two lovely owners of the the park, If you go to John o'Groats and need a over night camping site you must look it up you won't be disappointed
