    It was clean, fresh, inviting and very warm! We loved the huge communal table in the middle of all the pods that allowed us as a family to socialise with lots of other nationalities! We toasted marshmallows on the fire and enjoyed our night stay...

    Quiet and simple campsite just as we expected. Showers and toilets were clean. BBQ and fire pit available to use if needed. We had a great time with our 2yr olds first little camping trip

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.
