Stayed here for one night in a motorhome. Friendly staff, issued a 15 min shower time slot and can empty waste on site as well as wash up and laundry. Level parking with hook up. Very very very eco friendly.

Very nice staff. Really nice facilities where you’re allocated a slot at a bathroom containing shower, loo and basin in a heated portacabin. Very eco friendly. Fires are permitted. There is chemical disposal and fresh water on site. They also have a washing machine and sell soaps. Good level spots all hard standing for vans. £15 no hookup.

Really helpful people and a lovely looking campsite with a great Covid response. Even though they couldn't accommodate us, they welcomed a pit stop service for £5 which really helped us out at a time when many camps were closed or only accommodating self sufficient. Well done and good luck. x

Great little campsite in a perfect stop for the NC500. Great hosts that live on site so late arrivals are all good with them. A must stop for lunch is The Stacks bistro in John O’groats, amazing food!

Overnight stop also on site with hardstanding. can use services for £5 and shower for £2 £10 overnight with all services including heated kitchen. £15 with EHU. no view from hardstanding but this is a new venture very welcoming host and no set arrival or departure times for overnight stop. sheltered from very strong winds do a welcome overnight stop

Un endroit très sympa tenue par une famille très chaleureuse, un nombre de place limité sur terrain dur en temps de pluie (2 à 3 places environ, les camping-cars ne sont pas autorisés sur l'hébergement par crainte d'être embourbés.) Toilettes et douche propre et chauffée, un espace pour faire la vaisselle où du thé et du café est proposé en libre service, parfait pour faire une halte !

Perfect little camping. Off season and very bad weather, we were the only ones in there, but the staff was very nice and helpful. Convenient drying room with bread-toaster and electric kettle as well as a sink. Good amenities. (Might be small if full but couldn’t say for sure). Their homemade bread to order the night before was delicious.

Lovely stop. The amenities and plots are well thought out and offered everything a traveller could possibly need and more. Lovely warm shower room! Thank you.

Wunderbarer Platz. Wärmstens zu empfehlen. Sehr zuvorkommend, freundlich und sauber. Service at it’s best. Da der Untergrund bei unserem Besuch nass war, hat der Betreiber uns Gitterplatten auf den Rasen gelegt, damit wir nicht einsinken. Gemüse aus eigenem Anbau können vor Ort gekauft werden. Eier gibt es frisch von den Hühnern. Perfekte Nähe zur Fähre zu den Orkneyinseln.

A recommander. Accueil très sympathique. Nous n’y sommes pas restés la nuit mais c’est calme et bien aménagé. Vidange eaux noires et remplissage d’eau 5 livres.

Ein neuer kleiner, privat geführter CP. Er ist mitlerweile liebevoll angelegt. Der Platzbetreiber ist sehr zuvorkommend; besonders, als wir uns wegen tiefem schweren Boden festgefahren hatten. Man kann Brot und Gemüse aus eigenem Anbau kaufen. Für WoMo's über 3,5 t ist der Rasenbereich zurzeit nicht ausgelegt. Es stehen aber auch 2 Schotterplätze zur Verfügung.
