CAMPSITE
Near Morar
and Arisaig,
West Highlands of Scotland
on The
Road to the Isles
The campsite at Camusdarach offers superb panoramic views of the islands and is sheltered by many large mature trees. The undulating grassy surface makes tent pitching easy and offers flatter areas for caravans. The 42 pitches are generous in size and allow parking on-pitch. It is advisable to book a pitch in advance during July and August. We are a family site and in order to maintain peace and quiet ask all visitors to arrive by 9:00 pm.
Electric hook-ups (16) are available and should be booked in advance. There are 2 hard-standing pitches particularly for large vans. Hook-ups are now available in both camping areas and serviced pitches are larger than before. Calor Midge-Eaters are installed in both camping areas.
|
The site has an immaculate, modern toilet and
shower block, which includes a laundry with washing and
drying machines, washing-up areas and facilities for the
disabled and babies. Effluent from the shower-block is treated by a series of reed-beds which detoxify the outflow water preventing any contamination of the surrounding land. This provides an eco-friendly solution to waste disposal. A separate disposal point is available for chemical toilet waste. |
 |
The whole estate is geared towards sustainable land use in the hope that we, as custodians of this small area of the Highlands, can pass on to the next generation a healthy environment for every living thing whether human or otherwise. We have been awarded the Green Tourism gold award. |
| A footpath from the site gives access to the
superb sandy beaches used as a location in the film
'Local Hero' which are a mere 3 minute stroll away. A travelling shop visits twice a week providing milk, meat, vegetables, fruit and basic groceries. |
 |
Our site has been awarded a quality
standard of 4 stars by the Scottish Tourist Board
and 4 pennants by the AA.
The site is open from March to October.
You will find us 4 miles North of Arisaig on the Old Coast Road, now B8008, and will see our large red and gold signs at the gate. Click here for zoomable map.
