 Nice quiet site. Immaculate facilities and owners helpful. Ideal for a stop over as we were on way north. Only draw back is there is no where for the kids to play.
After 3/4 hours in the car, my lot found it difficult as there was no where to let off steam and no ball games. Would go back but definitely for couples.
great location and nice walks round about. The other bug was closing the toilets between 10. 30 and noon --all of them- bar the one disabled toilet. Could they have staggered this? it was quiet when we were there but don't know how that would work in high season. We had to queue as it was.
These 2 things made it a bit too regimented for our liking but a nice site nonetheless, just not for us

Its a long time since we used a camping and caravan club site. We had been thinking of joining but this experience changed our mind.
We have a campervan - we do not need electric, but we had to pay for it anyway
We really wanted to be on grass to use our awning but vans are only allowed on hard standing.
The gates get closed at 11pm - effectively locking us out if we had been for a meal. As we are in a campervan, its our only transport and our sleeping accommodation
Despite the fact we are not members all of our details are now on their database - we had stayed at another site a few weeks before and they called up our info on their computer.
Nice views from the site - too far from shops and pubs to walk.

This is a return visit for us and we decided to come back and spend our first wedding anniversary here as we actually honeymooned here. We did initially only plan to stay 5 nights and then move to Bunree further down the road but after viewing the other site we decided to cancel and stay the full two weeks.
Great wardens, fantastic site, plenty of good walks, friendly locals. Cannot fault this site and already planning a return trip next year for our anniversary. It has become 'our place'. If you have the stamina. Have a go at climbing the Glencoe Pap as the views are amazing from the top and well worth the aching legs.
The Glencoe Hotel is now open. Was shut last time we visited, good food and beer and a brilliant spot for watching the sunset over the loch.
However I suppose from a family point of view, there is not much facilities for children.However his site seems to attract more couples for whatever reason. Maybe because geared up for walkers. Great dog walk too around the site as surrounded by woods.
Highly recommended.

This campsite has a lovely location a few miles from Glen Coe. We are members of the Club and did not book in advance and managed to get a pitch. We chose a night spot and the camp site was very quiet all the time we were there.
The shower block was great and the showers were very good. I was disappointed that having paid £20 to camp there they charged to use the hair-drier and iron - surely should be part of your pitch price?
We wanted to use the tumble dryer to dry our towels before moving onto another site but there was only one and it was in constant use!
The location of the camp site is nice and its right near a visitor centre with a few small walks nearby. The site shop held some basic items but there was a larger shop in Glen Coe if required.

I'd have loved to have been on this site when the rain wasn't pouring down. I know Glencoe area from previous visits and know this setting is great - but we couldn't see it for the rain! Not their fault of course.
Plus points - friendly staff, large pitches, clean facilities and despite all the rain the site did seem to be coping well with the water.
Glencoe village is a mile away and has a decent little supermarket but the the nearest bar not being renovated is probably nearer 2 miles at the moment.
If you're into walking mountains, this is the 'peak' of British surroundings.

We stayed at this site with granchildren while we toured round Scotland and found it most enjoyable. The toilets were spotless and scenery gorgeous.
There was of course the midges but they did not spoil a fantastic couple of days.
We enjoyed walking with the dogs and reminiscing (met my husband many years ago quite near here)
We had all our food with us so I'm not sure what the local area is like for shopping, We would return if we were in this area again.

This is a beautiful site with great scenery. Only word of warning is the pitches on the same side as reception were noisy due to the road traffic and the midgies are also a nightmare. Plenty of great walks around the campsite and extremely dog friendly. There is a local spar, post office and takeaway in Glencoe Village and a pub approx 2 miles in each direction that serve great food and also dog friendly. It appears the only pub in Glencoe is shut at the moment for renovation. The camp owners are friendly and there is a small (I mean small) stock of groceries available. There are washing and drying facilities but due to the size of the campsite it was often very busy as only one of each machine. We would definitely go back as thoroughly enjoyed the holiday.

We stayed on this gem of a site over the Easter weekend and were very impressed by the location and the breathtaking views from the site.
The toilet block and dish washing facilities were kept exceptionally clean at all times and the pitches which are hard standing were nice and level. The site wardens were very helpful and friendly and we would have no hesitation on recommending this site

Early enough to beat the midges on this visit. Can't beat this site for tremendous views of the surrounding peaks. Super toilet block - clean and modern. Our minor quibble before was that it was like camping in a car park as there's no grass between the motorhome /caravan pitches. However, this is being rectified by the raised planters (?) subdividing some of the expanses of gravel.
The large flat area of grass for tents has covered picnic tables - can be useful in wet Argyllshire weather. Good dog walks off site, but bring a tick hook during the summer and check your human companion too.
Next door to the National Trust for Scotland visitor centre, worth a visit.

This is the second time we have visited this site and love it. The views are stunning all around the camp site.
Toilet and shower's are spotless and large. Staff were helpful and friendly.
10 min's away from Glencoe Village and 2 min's walk to the visitor centre.
You will need rock pegs as some parts of the ground is very hard. Pitches are large and site is quiet (apart from the traffic on the road which is quite close - at night it is very quiet). Great views of the Milky Way on a clear night - fantastic.
Beware - MIDGES! lol.
If you want somewhere clean, tidy, close to ferries and Glencoe - this place is PERFECT.
