Camping Horgabost. C'est un grand camping. Le tarmac au niveau des sanitaires est idéal pour les camping-cars. Charmant et calme. Belle plage adjacente. Il n'y a pas d'évacuation des eaux noires, vous devez vous rendre au terminal de ferry de Leverburgh pour cela. Le propriétaire nous a laissé rester hors saison gratuitement.

Horgabost Campsite. This is a large campsite. The level tarmac by the toilets is ideal for motorhomes. Lovely and quiet. Beautiful beach adjacent. There is no black water disposal, you have to go to Leverburgh ferry terminal for this. Owner let us stay out of season free of charge.

Horgabost Campingplatz. Dies ist ein großer Campingplatz. Der ebene Asphalt bei den Toiletten ist ideal für Wohnmobile. Schön und ruhig. Schöner Strand angrenzend. Es gibt keine Schwarzwasserentsorgung, dafür müssen Sie zum Leverburgh Fährterminal gehen. Der Besitzer ließ uns außerhalb der Saison kostenlos bleiben.

    Telefonisch plaats gereserveerd en verwezen naar pitch 14. Deze plaats is te klein en ongeschikt voor een VW bus en telefonisch aangegeven dat we plaats 17 hebben genomen. Dit was niet mogelijk omdat deze gereserveerd was … Na aangeven dan te vertrekken en betaling terug wilden konden we blijven staan! Na ons geen nieuwe gasten gekomen en meerdere plaatsen vrij gebleven. Minder klantvriendelijk.

    Great site, staff very helpful and friendly, facilities include toilet blocks and showers. Great location on lovely island near iconic Seilebost and Luskentyre beaches. large pitches.

  • 5/5

    Great site, easy access to the sea and lovely views. Washing up facilities, toilets and showers - clean and in a good condition. Good location for catching the ferry from Leverburgh in the morning (approx. 35 mins drive).

  • 3/5

    We came here for 1 night in August 2023 it was £15 for 1 night that was for 2 people in a roof tent with no hook up. We phoned before we arrived and they gave up a spot it wasn’t the best spot but we did show up after 6pm. They have toilets, washing up and shower facilities. The showers are £1 for 8minutes. Short walk to a beautiful sandy beach.

  • 5/5

    The experience changes depending of where your pitch is. We were lucky to find a spot on the top ridge: great view and proximity to the facilities (small but still OK). If your pitch is close to the road then it’s a different story: no views and quiet a walk to the main building. The lady at reception was very friendly, arrive early to be able to choose your spot, friendly lady at reception.

  • 3/5

    Great access to the beach. Site is very busy as a result. Toilets and showers were very far from the pitch we were in. Showers were an additional cost, plus further £3 to empty chemical toilet.

  • 3/5

    Facilities are charged at £3.00 for toilet tank empty. Water free. Not sure about grey water.

  • 3/5

    Schöner, großer und natürlicher Platz mit Zugang zum Strand. Es gibt keine Stellplätze mit Stromanschluß. Es gibt leider nur 3 Sterne, da die Sanitäranlagen in ziemlich schlechtem Zustand sind. Es funktioniert zwar alles, erinnert aber eher an frühere Festival-Toiletten-Container.

  • 5/5

    Obwohl er keinen Platz mehr frei hatte, schaffte der. Besitzer für mich ein Plätzchen gleich am Eingang. Schade, dass es keine Elektrizität am Platz gab, sonst wäre ich gerne noch länger geblieben. Alles Gute Jochen

  • 5/5

    Such lovely owners! We arrived 10 minutes before closing time and the ladies made sure we still had a spot. Even the best one of the entire camping according to us, with sea views. Beautiful walk on the beach. Close to the ferry.

  • 3/5

    Wunderschöner Platz, mit großer Grassfläche, keine abgetrennten Parcellen, Auffahrkeile nützlich, kein Strom. Dusche und WC für die Menge der Plätze etwas wenig, ungepflegt und nicht besonders sauber, kosten extra. Aussicht über den Strand spektakulär schön. Freundliche Betreiber und am Empfang ebenfalls.

  • 2/5

    espace pour vidange des eaux noires et grises et remplissage eau potable pour £3 même si le camping est fermé, quelques mètres après la grille.

  • 4/5

    Great place with an awesome beach, but a bit expensive for the services provided

  • 1/5

    Pulled up, were prepared to pay the overnight fee for campervan and pay extra to use the facilities but man in high viz extremely rude and didn’t make us feel welcome at all. Moved along.

  • 3/5

    Un peu cher, les installations sont vieilles. Mais belle ballade jusqu’à la pierre levée et magnifique coucher de soleil.

  • 1/5

    There are facilities but they are tired. Showers are £1 for 8 minutes besides the £20 for a night on a pitch with no electric. Compared to other sites it’s not so good, but when you are with a campervan without toilet it must do.

  • 1/5

    This site is not as advertised because the £20 per night is just to park on a very uneven field. The toilet/shower block can be used at an additional charge and is open to all public. It’s not clean or particularly private and is open to all members of the public not paying to stay ‘on site.’ There are plenty of free/cheaper local places to stay which are much nicer. The only redeeming feature is the adjacent beach.

  • 1/5

    An sich schön gelegener Platz, direkt am Strand.. ABER: Platz ist sehr groß, auch viele Zeltplätze. Nur ein Facility-Gebäude, wenige und sehr alte Duschen/Toiletten, zudem wirklich schmutzig und größtenteils ohne WC-Papier. Ich bin nicht heikel, aber das war übel. Zum Geschirr abspülen gibt es genau ein Waschbecken (für den ganzen Platz) in einer schmuddeligen Küche. Dafür sind 20,- zu teuer!

  • 5/5

    Perfect location, 5 minutes walk to the sand beach, kids were very happy. £1 for the shower, it lasts long enough for 2 people, it was clean.

  • 2/5

    Location is good but you pay £20 to pay in a field. You then need to pay for facilities over and above this (£1 for shower and £3 for chemical waste). Very basic facilities that need updating and a bit of a clean. Lower pitches are sheltered from the wind.

  • 5/5

    Really good site. Very friendly owners. Stunning beach. Has a van serving good food. No ehu in case you need that. Best site I’ve stayed at in the islands. So good I’m back for another 3 nights.

  • 2/5

    Nothing wrong with the place but.. You pay 20 pounds to park for the night, there are other places that are cheaper or even free. There is now CDP but it's 3 pounds, toilets and showers are very basic and could do with being replaced.

  • 2/5

    Platz ist ok. Viele Caravans stehen offenbar die ganze Saison. Dadurch begrenzt für Touring Camper. Facilities sehr basic. Duschen kostet extra (1£-Münze erforderlich). Für das, was der Platz bietet, finde ich ihn zu teuer. Keine Übernachtung ohne Buchung. Wer nachts von der Fähre kommt aber Pitches frei sind, darf nicht bleiben. Platz hat Potenzial. Es braucht nur wenige Veränderungen.

  • 5/5

    Very basic showers. No EHU available…. BUT the location is truly spectacular with one of the most beautiful beaches

  • 5/5

    Nice site in fantastic location. Amazing views of mountains and adjacent to wonderful beach. Great welcome on arrival and the new facilities kept spotlessly clean . £20 for pitch but showers and use of chemical toilet extra. No electric hook ups on this site. Good location not too far from the ferry port and close to the superb beaches on the west coast

  • 4/5

    Grundsätzlich guter Platz mit etlichen Stellplätzen ohne Strom aber die Möglichkeit sich zu ver- und entsorgen. Sanitäranlagen könnten mal saniert werden. Bei starkem Wind sind die oberen Plätze nicht zu empfehlen (aber gute Sicht-unten windgeschützt aber kein Meerblick).

  • 5/5

    Out of season review (January) but the owner was incredibly kind and let us stay for free in the carpark by the beach. Let us use the toilets and water fill. Gave us a lot of information on what to see in the local area.

  • 2/5

    Location stunning campsite is a field and not much more , £20 per night no elec , pay extra for showers that are not clean, no CWD , advised to go to Tarbet for this wheres its £3 , stunning location but site badly needs upgraded , wild camp nearby or stay in an also nearby Harris trust site where you get the scenery but more facilities for your money

  • 3/5

    Nice location to the beach with views over to Luskentyre. Owner managed to squeeze us in which we were grateful for. Toilets/showers serve their purpose - shipping containers basically.

  • 3/5

    Stunning location but at £60 for 3 nights showers should be included beach is beautiful though but weather on this side seemed to be much worse then the west side!

  • 3/5

    It is all about the location. Fabulous beach, less than fabulous campsite. Facilities are desperately in need of an update. No cwd or hook up and very limited toilet and shower facilities for the size of the site. If you are in a campervan, I would choose one of the West Harris Trust sites.

  • 3/5

    At £20 a night, poorest value for money that we came across on the Western Isles. Great location, but that applies to most sites on the islands. V limited facilities for the number of campers. Hot water very limited to unavailable. No CWD. Need to book in advance but took 3 days of trying for phone to be answered. Minimum investment for maximum profit. You're better off wild camping.

  • 3/5

    Belle plage juste à côté. Terrain en herbe avec pas mal d'étages différents. Sanitaires juste corrects (douche gratuite mais apparemment limitée en temps). Pour les arrivées en dehors des horaires d'ouverture du food-truck de l'entrée, c'est 'self-service' pour s'installer et payer (dans la boîte aux lettres à l'entrée, des enveloppes sont fournies dans le local d'accueil et vaisselle, à côté des sanitaires) £14 pour un camping-car.

  • 3/5

    Comme dit précédemment, c’est un excellent camping pour pas cher. 14£ la nuit, c’est correct pour ce qui proposé . Vous êtes dans l’herbe, près de la plage, c’est calme. Effectivement, il n’y a pas de service d’eaux noires, mais c’est ce qui fait son prix. C’est sans regret.

  • 5/5

    Situation idyllique, vue splendide. Sanitaires basiques mais propres. Un petit coin de paradis tout simple, comme on aime.

  • 4/5

    Cadre fantastique. Les commodités sont spartiates mais propres. Superbe plage! prévoir du cash, le payement se fait directement dans une boîte aux lettres. 4 étoiles pour le cadre!

  • 1/5

    Un peu anarchique et bondé. Arrivés vers 19h donc nous n'avons vu personne. Effectivement la plage est belle mais le camping reste médiocre avec des installations vétustes, types conteneurs. Douches pitoyables. Pour les hommes, comme au gymnase, salle commune pour se déshabiller. Donc camping de "dépannage". Ne vaut pas plus que les 14 £ payées. Contents de l'avoir trouvé et contents de partir.

  • 2/5

    Camping qui "dépanne". Personnel aimable. Sanitaires déplorables.

  • 5/5

    Great place on an amazing beach. Toilets there and a food van. Loved it but didn’t stay because we needed a CWD and as there wasn’t one there, went on to Tarbert where there are facilities. Lovely place, pity we had to leave.

  • 4/5

    Très chouette endroit et emplacement. Les commodités ne sont pas exceptionnelles mais sinon rien à redire :)

  • 5/5

    Wir können gegebene Kommentare nur bestätigen. Toller Campsite! Relaxte Atmosphäre und wunderbares Ambiente! Und ein Plätzchen für einen Campervan auf den hügeligen Rasenplatz findet sich immer.

  • 5/5

    Superbe endroit ! Possibilité de se poser sur la pelouse avec vue sur la mer et accès direct à la magnifique plage ! 14 £ la nuit, nous sommes restés plus longtemps que prévu, paradisiaque ! WC propre, eau chaude gratuite pour la vaisselle et eau chaude payante pour la douche.
