Small parking below the road. Max 4 vehicles for safe distance, do not overcrowd. Stunning views of "The Old Man of Stor" at the water's edge. The road is very busy from 21:00, we had a great night.

Très belle vue mais alors beaucoup de vent. Nous étions tellement secoués qu’impossible de dormir de la nuit. Mais bien pratique quand les autres parkings sont pris! Pas de problème de bruit de route!

Wollten ursprünglich auf dem Parkplatz vom Old Man of Storr übernachten, ist jedoch nicht mehr möglich. Blieben somit hier für eine Nacht. Direkt am Wasser, sehr schöne Aussicht. Abends noch viel Verkehr, nachts wurde es weniger. Toiletten sind tagsüber am Old Man of Storr verfügbar.

Great spot to park up overnight. Had a good nights sleep here.

Great spot, closest free parking to Storr and with a half decent track running down the side of the road. Very little traffic!

Good amount of space. Lots of midgies!

Super um eine kleine Pause vor dem Old man of Storr zu machen oder eine Wanderung zu starten. Übernachtet haben wir hier nicht. Unser WoMo misst 8 x 3m.

Went there during a rainy day but nice view anyway. Busy road until 21pm, quiet during the night. Perfect spot for 3-4 motorhomes or 5-6 vans.

Llegamos al anochecer y pasamos la noche para subir bien temprano la mítica Old Man of Storr. Lugar tranquilo y buenas vistas con un bonito amanecer.

Abbiamo passato una notte tranquilla, con una vista molto bella e pochi midges. Perfetto per partire presto per il trekking all’old man of storr

Often too many vehicles parked here and not maintaining a safe (4M) distance apart. May be moved on if too tightly parked here.

Posto carino sulla strada, perfetto per la gita all’old man of storr. Vale in ogni luogo, ma in particolare per gli spot così piccoli, tutti facciamo la cacca, ma non andrebbe lasciata in natura, fa schifo e non è sano per l’ambiente, a maggior ragione con tanto di salviette. Si può scavare una buca (non qui, troppo vicino ad un ruscello) o portarla via con un sacchetto, i cestini sono a 30 metri.

Vue magnifique sur le Old Man of Storr et le lac. La route est très peu fréquentée le soir donc la nuit est calme. Très venteux

Une superbe vue. De la place pour 4 vans. Par contre aucun endroit pour aller aux toilettes de manière discrète.

Guter Parkplatz etwas abseits der Straße. Schöne Aussicht. Gute Alternative, da in Portree keine Übernachtungsmöglichkeiten in ausreichender Menge vorhanden sind.

Great lay-by set off the road with views over the loch, even had a Sea Eagle fly along length of pull in at eye level. Busy road during the day but goes quiet about 9pm and comes alive again about 7am so good nights sleep guaranteed. Pity there were no bins but other than that it was great.

the best place we've been in. view is amazing, abit more away from the road so more quiet. very close to the hike

Rustige plek in de nacht maar verkeer komt redelijk vroeg op gang en maakt veel herrie. Er kunnen 4 campers staan mits goed geparkeerd, dus hou daar rekening mee.

Stunning views from Storr and the lake, a bit too close to the road but no one passing from 21-6h. A bit windy at times but ok inside the camper. Perfect for spending the night before the Storr hike (we were the first starting at 7.30am). No facilities.

Nice spot with a view, can be windy. The street is close but that did not bother us since there was basically no traffic at night and its a side road next to the main road. We were alone at the spot which was great. No toilets or other facilities. however, only a couple of minutes away from Old Man of Storr, where we drove the next early morning.

Le bord du lac sert surtout de WC. On est pas resté malgré la vue !

Decent sized lay by could fit multiple vans along here, not from the Storr at all. No facilities. Be aware its not very well protected from wind, stayed here last night and it was so windy was shaking the vehicle!

Stayed here 2 of 4 nights on skye. 5 min drive to waste disposal @ the storr & itself. bit far to walk from here. also 10 mins from portree. managed to get 6 campers in on our second stay!

Great view, but quite close to road. No phone signal. Space for about 3-4

Very nice view and very close to the car park in the Old man of Storr. abit quiet at night just be careful with the midgets. Just no phone coverage.

Great location if you want to start the nearest walking path first thing in the morning. Route is not very busy at night but we had two passing drivers using the horn. Good for one night.

Good spot. stayed one night 9/6 quiet enough to get some sleep. one other motorhome could accommodate another 4. short walk to the old man car park which now has waste disposal. I would use this spot again.

Quiet lay-by with minimal road traffic overnight, only us and 1 other van May 2021. No facilities but there is a new toilet block that was open at the old man of Storr car park only 2 minutes drive down the road.

Good stop for the night. Not much traffic. Nice views. Reasonably level if you choose the right place to park.

Reasonably flat. Room for 4-5 campers. Make sure you park close to the one in front so everyone can squeeze in as it filled up while we were there.

Not the most level layby so you may need to adjust your position. Arrived last night in pouring rain but woke this morning to glorious sunshine and views of Loch Leathen. Road noise not intrusive but we did not have windows open

Le rêve ??. Nous y étions seuls. Réseau 4G. Vue splendide. Je recommande chaudement !
