    Warm and dry after a long damp ride. Shower block was also well heated. Great for biker pairs and biker friendly.

    The location is perfect if you are using a car only minutes away from Loch Ness. The shower facilities are perfectly clean and so is the washing up area.

    Gives a camping experience with full comfort. We really enjoyed the views, quick access to lochness, and lower price. The bathrooms were very clean and surprisingly nice for the type of venue it is. It’s a Great value!

    It’s the only accommodation in that general area, so we were grateful they were there!

    Accessible to the great glen way but it’s a 1.3 mile easy road walk. This location makes it possible to break up a very long segment into 2. We also had our bags dropped here and this were able to bring food as there is not really much to get...

Its a Great Glen idea!
Love camping and skiing and/or skiing and camping in our campervan. Don't do hotels as we just want to do for ourselves at affordable prices.
Our rural woodland mountainous location is phenomenal. We are 5 mins drive away from Loch Ness, 10 mins to Drumnadrochit and 15 mins to Inverness. Growing in abundance on the campsite, we have wild mushroom, juniper berries, herbs and heather - the air is so pure, lichen grows on the trees. Deer, pine marten, squirrels, badgers, just wander on by and if you look up, buzzards, red kite, osprey and eagles just float by! Jacobite Cruises on Loch Ness are 2 miles away. Dolphins in the Moray Firth are 30 mins away. Planes and trains are all accessible from Inverness. Day trips day trips from the campsite include the stunning west and east coasts, John o’ Groats, Orkney, Cairngorm National Parks, Drumnadrochit, Fort Augustus, the list is endless. The national walking route the Great Glen Way just passes our door step and the Glen Affric Way is not that far away. Our campsite looks out over the majestic Abriachan mountains with stunning views over Loch Ness and the Moray Firth. Public transport to Inverness, Isle of Skye, Fort William leaves from the main A82, 20 min walk. Our campsite is becoming very popular with those who are travelling the NC500 as the set off/finish point.
