 The site is small, but out in the peace and quiet of the countryside, so is unlikely to ever be full.
It's on a slope reaching down to the bay, but has terraced areas for motorhomes. It's a steep slope into the site if you have a larger motorhome.
The view is stunning. You have a widescreen display of the bay, looking back along the mainland, and across to Mull. Watch the small ferry ply back and forward from Tobermory to Kilchoan (about 4 miles away), and the larger ferry from Oban head out to Coll and Tiree.
The owner is a character, and a lot of the stuff on site is there to encourage you to look at the local wildlife. Down near the beach, we saw a seal come up onto the rocks.
The facilities are a mish-mash, this is no corporate setup, but they're useable.
But it's the location and view that make this site a bit special.
If you're this far west (most westerly campsite on the mainland), it's worth the effort to make it to Ardnamurchan Point where the lighthouse stands at the most westerly point on the mainland.

Great site but takes a while to get here. Travelled down from Lochailort and although only 40 miles takes a good 90 minutes even with very little traffic.
Drive down into the site quite steep but no problems when we were there as it was dry, hot and sunny.
Room for 4 motorhomes with hook ups, the rest of the site being for tents. The site is sloping and the motorhomes are on a flat terrace overlooking Mull and the Loch.
Tents are scattered about on any flat ground. Friendly site and facilities are adequate rather than palatial.
Site owner very friendly and sociable and tends to be around in the mornings and evenings although he doesn't live on the site.
Although we wouldn't have liked to bring a large motorhome in here a couple did arrive on our third night.

A stunningly beautiful location in a remote part of the world. Weather was not great when we visited but we still felt it was a special place. You can walk along the shore and maybe spot an otter if you are lucky, there are fossils in the limestone cliffs a few minutes walk away. We didn't see an otter right by the campsite but did see one a few minutes down the road by the ferry stop for Mull. There were bluebells around the edge of the campsite in May. A skeleton of a whale washed up nearby is on the wall of the bothy/study centre. Great views out to the islands and you can see lots of lighthouses twinkling.
Facilities are not bad, showers and toilets are ok, there is also a washing up room with washing machine and fridge. You pay to use the washing machine but showers are free.
The village shop is about 10 mins walk and is very well stocked with most of the supplies you will need - good range of food plus books, souvenirs etc. The village pub is about 5-10 mins walk beyond that and is quite good with local ales and reasonable food. I think you can also camp in its grounds if this campsite is full, which seems unlikely.
Can't remember how much we paid but it was less than the previous place and seemed reasonable.

Absolutely loved this place. A location to die for and facilities which, while not necessarily state-of-the-art, were adequate and honest. The owner has built the site up himself and runs it with an attentive presence. The power went down on the morning we were there and Trevor had it fixed and up and running within 2-3 hours despite it being Easter Sunday. Hats off to the man.
A nice mixture of tents and camper vans and well worth the trek along the peninsula to sample this very special place.

Fantastic small campsite in a stunning location, nice and quiet. It is a long road round but well worth it.
There is a study centre but didn't go in, think it gives info on the area, fossils, wild life etc. We didn't get time to do it.
The facilities are basic but that's what we expected, the toilet block only had 2 toilets and 2 showers but was clean and had lots of hot water.
There is a shop within 15-20 min walk but has limited opening hours so make sure you take provisions with you.
Hotel/bar is about 25-30 min walk and serves food till 8pm, it can get busy.
You can set a fire on the pebbly beach but take some fire wood with you as there isn't much around.
Midges - Were really bad on the Saturday night so we went down to the beach and lit a fire. Fine all othertimes, but that's expected when in the west of scotland. Cover up, take a midge net, skin so soft, citronella candles.
You can walk to the Kilchoan Peir and get the ferry across to Tobermory in 35 mins. Nice day out - good if you need to go to the Co-op or want a nice meal, closer than heading to Mallaig / Fort William. Visit the tea room on the way to the peir.
The lighthouse is 5 miles away and Sanna Sands just a bit further. Worth the trip on a nice day.
Wish we could have stayed longer.
If you like a quiet campsite, few children, stunning scenery and somewhere to relax then go here.
