 Great location. Ideal for the town and the ferry.
Pitches firm and flat with hook up.
Showers etc clean and well equipped.
A great spot for a jump off to Orkney and Shetland

This Site seems to live mainly on its location on the NC500 and proximity to the Scrabster Ferry.
These, the excellent views and the short walk into Thurso are the positives.
The negatives are the condition of the toilets and other facilities and the way tents and vans are packed in.
We found ourselves next to a pitch with motorhome, two cars, dogs and a tent, followed by inflation of a kayak at about 10. 30pm all on the same space.
On top of all that, the power had failed and we were without electricity until a generator was connected up.
Price is quite high too.

Lovely view of the beach.
Toilets and showers were dirty even although the cleaners had just been in they were also old and worn. The key code doors on toilets were not great either as every time someone went in the doors slammed and disturbed our sleep as we were right at the toilet blocks.
The cafe area wasn’t open but where you checked in and it had a really bad smell.
No problem with the pitch and no noise after ten. It was fine for one night but wouldn’t stay here again

It’s a convenient location for the NC500 but not the best site for camping.
More of a camper van site.
Breakfast at the Blue moon diner was great and the service was warm and friendly.

The site is well laid out with good facilities and very close to town, Scrabster is also a short bike rode away, which is worth a visit.
The cafe is currently only open at weekends, hopefully that will change post covid.

Great location because of views.
Basic toilet and shower facilities but well maintained.
Good mixture of grass and handstanding for our campervan.

Lovely Views from the pitches.
Bit pricier than other sites we stayed throughout week that had better facilities.
Toilets and shower blocks could do with modernising.

Fantastic views, very handy for Dunnet Head, John O'Groats ans Scrabster Ferry.
Good pitches but a bit expensive and amenities need modernising.
Staff friendly and welcoming.

Lovely campsite with incredible views across to the Orknies.
Good facilities and a lovely cafe. Really welcoming owner who runs the cafe.
Lots of benches along the coast path in front of the campsite.
