Date of Visit: July 2016 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: McCarron 14 reviews from this member

 Booked via phone, no problem. On arrival check in was fast and good information on facilities on site and for events in the area. Allowed to choose pitch and drive around touring pitch area to choose. All touring pitches are serviced with water/elec/drain, ours was big pitch loads of space and reasonably level. Chemical toilet disposal point adjacent to main toilet block. Grounds were very well kept, site is mainly for static caravans/homes but touring pitches separate from them. Toilet block is a little dated but very clean and warm and has Radio 2 playing which is a nice touch for some privacy. Extensive laundry facilities on site which serve local community also and not that busy during the day to do any washing/drying needed. A bit of background noise from the dryers on the site but switched off in evening/overnight. Location is right next to town and an easy walk to all facilities ( Bank with Cash Machine /Chip shop /pubs /hotel/ Co-op/ Chinese takeaway and all sorts of gift shops). Nice walk along loch front into town. Site is located next to main road but we didn't really suffer from too much noise, but really no views to be had from site. Petrol station at opposite end of town with Tesco Express. Good site would not hesitate to return.

Reviewer: S-and-G 10 reviews from this member

 We can't say we enjoyed staying there. The tent field is almost surrounded by motorhomes, which is a really unpleasant view, and doesn't support heavy rains, which had obviously been the case.

The toilet/shower block is pretty big, clean, but it seems to have been built 30 years ago.

There is plenty of washing machines and dryers, which is a good point.

Reviewer: Itsyum 111 reviews from this member

 This is a nice enough site, quite a few static vans and tourers used by what looked like local workers, the toilet and shower blocks are large and kept very clean although a little dated. The site is within 5 minutes walk of the town and there's a lovely walk along the canal. On the downside the main road that runs adjacent to the site is noisy and the on site laundry is in constant use by locals so there's cars coming and going all day and an annoying drone from the driers always in the background. 


Date of Visit: September 2015 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Jingleman 3 reviews from this member

 We had a lovely weekend at this wee site - here is all the important stuff that you need to know. It was september and it was very quiet but with a large number of static caravans on the site I would imagine it stays quite settled. The pitches are big - especially the super pitches - with plenty of room for awnings and parking etc. The park really actually is with in (normal person) walking distance of the town center which is very handy indeed. There is plenty to do and see in the local area not least that you can go for nice walks along the Crinan canal and look at all the boats.

The only downside I could see was that it appears the locals use the site laundry facilities as a laundrette - meaning that if you aren't fast to the machines then you may have to queue. All in all though - I recommend this site and we will go back. 


Date of Visit: August 2015 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: V650 2 reviews from this member

 A nice well cared for site with friendly staff, the shower block is a bit dated but was very clean with plenty of free hot water.

The tent field was in very good condition and the site was hardly midgey at all.

The site is within a five minute walk of all the shops and pubs with a petrol station and Tesco direct at the other end of the main street. It is perfect for a couple of nights stay with great road links to Oban, Campbelltown, Inverary and the Cowal areas.

The only down side is it can be a bit noisy with traffic passing on the main road but I didn't really have an issue with it.

I will certainly stay here again

 We stayed on this site from coming off Islay and found it to be a little gem. Great facilities, friendly welcome, and good pitches. Ideal for walking into town, which has a good fresh fish shop, and excellent wine and whisky shop, also a Tesco and a Coop store. The site has a small dog walk, but access to the Crinan Canal tow path. We only had time to spend 2 nights here, but are planning a longer stay in September.

Reviewer: GrumpyBoaby 58 reviews from this member

 The site is located next to the main A83 and is very busy with commercial vehicles, the site has a mixture of static vans and seasonal caravans, many of the workmen leave for their work early, so if your a light sleeper, wear ear plugs.

The Crinan canal runs near the site and is always a fun to watch the boats navigating the canal, the town has lots of local shops, the hospital is close at hand.

The site in my opinion has seen better days, although clean and functional the toilets and shower block are very run down.

You have a choice of pitches, £20 this month gets you a full service pitch on hard standing.

We find the site handy to restock, do the washing before heading of to your next location.

I hope the site upgrades its shower block before we return.

Reviewer: Skipper10 5 reviews from this member

 We camped for two nights in May 2015. There had been rain so we carefully found a dryish pitch. ( We stayed here in 2007 too and the grass/moss tends to be damp, so check. )

The reception, toilets etc. Were all fine.

All our pegs went in ok and the pitches are pretty well all flat.

The town has a rocky beach front at the head of the loch. There are plenty of shops, garage etc.

There are plenty of things in the area to visit, we walked the Beaver Trail.

A useful site for those of us on our way North or back again.

 We have visited this site many times over the past 30 years. It's our favourite place to break our touring holiday for a stock up in the local supermarket. Even using the laundry if running out of clean clothes. The warden is so welcoming. The pitches are spacious with water and electric on hand. The dog walk is convenient. Locally the chinese takeaway is good. All in all 10:10 we will be back for sure. See you in August. Thanks for looking after us.

Reviewer: Dawny14 6 reviews from this member

 A larger site than we would usually visit but lovely and quiet, good location with a small high street/petrol garage close by, pitches were spacious with electric hook up and water our pitch, showers lovely and hot, toilets and washing up area were spotlessly clean. Site also has a laundry facility. Site is dog friendly and allows bbqs as long as they are off the floor. All in all a good site.
