 This is a great campsite, near the main road but that isn't a problem.
It is situated in the dunes and though the trek to the toilet/shower block was quite a way, those facilities were very good.
No extras, but the location makes up for it and the nearby beach is lovely.
The food wagon by the entrance was excellent!

This was our 4th site in a row to find our perfect site ! Sadly this was not it neither as it was chaos so busy and again kids every were with no body on site to keep order !
The beaches I feel are not ideal for the us as we just want some kind of peaceful relaxing area and its a shame
But maybe we will visit early in the season or later maybe next time as the site looks nice!

Beautiful location! The beach is gorgeous and the loch a lovely shade of blue!
Very basic on site facilities, currently housed in shipping containers. These aren’t the greatest. There is also no CDU on site and even bio-safe stuff isn’t disposable here.
The part-time on-site warden was friendly and knowledgeable. Also very helpful when I had to move from the lower beach area too. Found myself facing 45 mph+ winds with huge gusts as a result of the wind being channelled through the dunes.
It got to the point where it felt unsafe so during a lull next day I whipped the tent down and moved house for the last night so as not to risk problems next morning when we’d be heading for the ferry… The winds also forced the tide worryingly high!
The site itself is reasonably well maintained but has been left relatively wild closer to the dunes/ beach which makes for a beautiful place to pitch, especially in good weather.
There are no nearby shops so it pays to plan ahead and take stocks as necessary if you don’t wanna have to travel every day.
In the event of poor weather there isn’t anywhere to safely/easily retreat and I imagine in the event of very wet weather it would be pretty grim. This is always a risk given the mountains…

Everything that the other reviews have said. Yes the facilities are in shipping containers. But the showers work and there's plenty of hot water,
There's lots of room and the beach is to die for.
Good butty van at the entrance too.
It can get very windy though - the night after we left a storm took out a lot of tents, so pitch with care.

Location is perfect, the beach is beautiful. Our tent pitch was on a hill which was really annoying but it was really busy so no other spots available.
We pre booked weeks in advance so expect that those showing up took the best and level spots.
There were no signs to tell us where the toilets etc were and took us a while to realise they were in shipping containers.
Facilities were fine but the amount of traffic in and out meant they were constantly dirty.
Not sure I'd stay here again.

Unfortunately with all the publicity this site has received over the last year the site is very busy. The position is perfect but the lack of facilities to cope with the 100 plus units ie two of each means that tenting has to be undertaken in between others users which can be busy a peak times.
The cost £9 for a two man tent is good but you pay for what you get which is nothing only the view.
They are looking to upgrade the facilities but this is only adding two extra shower units which when the site is full will not cope.

Right on the beach, hence subject to the weather both from the sea and the mountains. Therefore very good in the sun but damp in the rain and wind.
Very good when quiet ie during the week but very busy at weekends.
Camp where you want so can be very closed in if people are inconsiderate.
Lovely beach and hills to walk around.
Single toilet block for each sex which can be busy at times but clean, need a pound coin for the shower.
A shop is open sometimes run by locals but does't sell much.
You need an envelope and cash for money to pay for the site which is left in a tin on the gate.
A fridge and freezer is available for storing food/ice blocks.

Previous reviews describe it well. The position and views are stunning, the facilities are better than they look outside, the part time warden is very friendly. You do need to be self sufficient. There is no provision for emptying toilet cassettes, not even if, like us, you use organic bio safe stuff in there, so the nearest point is on the council waste site on the road to Scalpay at Tarbert. (£3)
It is very exposed to wind, it was bitingly cold, our van is unheated. And we firmly plan to return to this wonderful place.
It's superb for capable experienced walkers - sadly health issues prevent us, but the Seallam! centre just south, is very worth visiting, as well as just being in that scenery.
The dark sky meant great viewing of stars, including shooting stars.
Highly recommended site.

This is an undulating expanse of grass behind a beautiful beach. You pick a spot and pay £15 at the butty bar at the entrance, or pop it in a box (envelopes provided).
There are toilets and showers (£1) in containers in the beach car park - clean, but showering is not very private. No EHU or CDP. It was fairly busy when we were there, so we were lucky to find a level place for our van not too far from the beach.
Not too far from the ferry port at Leverburgh where there is a good supermarket but no amenities in the immediate vicinity - you need to be self-sufficient.

Camping in the undulating dunes next to lovely sandy beach, no marked pitches just pick a suitable space, some level areas. No EHU or WiFi. Might be worth picking a lower sheltered spot in poor weather!
Sturdy container based facilities in the beach car park, clean and adequate, small kitchen area with fridge/freezer, bike hire shop. Plans on the door indicate these may be upgraded to include more disabled facilities.
Butty wagon at entrance but was closed for the day when we stayed. Honesty box at gate for payment £14. Great rural site, would definitely return.
