    We thought this was good spot. The ground wasn’t too uneven, although not all areas were tarmac-ed. plenty of room for multiple vehicles. The view of loch is lovely in the morning and the loch side brasserie 5 mins down the road is perfect for a lovely dinner. And bacon and sausage baps arrives for you in the morning - what more could you want!

  • 3/5

    Pratique parce que pas tellement d’autres points identifiés sur ce trajet mais en bord de route tout de même.

  • 4/5

    Was quite a busy stop. The pull in was a bit further away from the road than some others, although road noise was slightly annoying. Being right on the loch was great, and a food truck to fulfil those breakfast cravings !

  • 4/5

    Super spot, une vue incroyable et accès en contre bas à une petite plage de galets. À côté de la rue donc peut être bruyant le soir et parking complet au mois d’août.

  • 4/5

    Great location for an overnight stay. Nice views, little walk down onto a beach. Does get busy and you can hear road traffic but it's set back off the road enough that it doesn't disturb sleep. OK 4g signal. No bins

  • 4/5

    Grande aire le long de la route, très fréquentée. Superbe vue sur le loch avec un accès à la petite plage. Propriétaires des food trucks assez véhéments contre les camping-caristes a notre passage.

  • 4/5

    Gute Übernachtungsmöglichkeit für autarke Wohnmobile. Es handelt sich um einen Rastplatz an der Straße, an dem zeitweise ein Imbisswagen geöffnet hat. Wenn man rechtzeitig da ist, kann man in erster Reihe mit wunderschönem Ausblick stehen. Der Straßenlärm hat uns nicht gestört, nachts war es ruhig.

  • 5/5

    Prachtig uitzicht en ruim voldoende plek voor meerder campers.

  • 4/5

    Beautiful view! Road a little noisy but fine with earplugs. Lovely people at the food trucks!

  • 4/5

    Really good park up....plenty of space.. we were there with 5 or 6 other vans....spectacular views....and a choice of 2 food vans ...no facilities bit that didn't matter. Lack of bins noticeable so be sure to leave no mess

  • 2/5

    Platz ist ok, leider direkt an der Straße. Autos stören da nicht, die Motorräder sind abersehr laut und ich denke ich wäre in Assen !

  • 5/5

    Fabulous park up right next to the Lock. Maybe space for 10 to 13 vans depending on size.

  • 5/5

    Great overnight spot with lots and lots of space for a couple of campervans and cars. Parked right on the side with a view of the loch. Is near the main road but gets quiet around 10pm. Even went for a cold morning swim

  • 4/5

    Lots of space, stream bubbling across the road, loch view, overnight parking a go!

  • 5/5

    Great spot! 6other vans, 1 car and an HGV here, with space for more. Really handy to have this on route to Skye, as all the other places I’ve passed on the way from Kintyre have been small and right next to the road.

  • 5/5

    absolutely a super plates to stay spectacular views definitely worth it stay very safe

  • 4/5

    Vaste parking le long de la route avec belle vue sur le lac. Nuit calme. Accès au lac possible.

  • 5/5

    Amazing parking parallel to the road (pretty busy) next to a lake and beautiful hills. Relatively flat. Food truck onsite (closed when I visited though). Good cellphone reception. Very happy with my stay!

  • 1/5

    I'll only use this spot for a rest during the day now.A real shame.. It's becoming all too common to have other motorhomes/vans, parking within inches of ours, no respect for personal space. not nice to wake up and feel completely pinned in. use your heads people, leave some space for others. If it's busy, find somewhere else, there's plenty of room for all, in this beautiful country!

  • 5/5

    Lovely stop when some of the others were snowed in (December). The food truck runs in season… not abandoned. Perfect spot… if a bit exposed to the weather. Great cell data speeds! (EE)

  • 5/5

    it is lush and no rubbish, it's kept clean, let's keep it that way. ☺️

  • 5/5

    Wild night of winds and rain adding to atmosphere and beautiful surroundings. Fantastic view. A few other campervans/ motorhomes. Saturday night, rain & wind drowned out most traffic noise though road pretty quite by eleven. Take your rubbish away with you.

  • 4/5

    Free parking, road noise until about 10pm but after that became quieter. The space filled up by about 6.30pm, i’m glad we didn’t leave it any longer.

  • 4/5

    Stopped here on route to Ullapool , wow what a perfect parking spot , reckon it would be great on a night

  • 4/5

    ottima notte, vista del lago e delicato rumore del ruscello. Alla mattina è arrivato in carretto per la colazione. Ottimo

  • 4/5

    Pas mal pour une nuit on entend un peu la route mais la nuit c’est bien passée. Le matin il y a même un fond truck

  • 4/5

    Perfecto para una noche, con vistas y acceso al lago. A primera hora de la mañana hay algo de ruido por la carretara. Por la tarde hay que tener algo de cuidado con los midges del lago! No hay basura ni baños disponibles.

  • 3/5

    è una decente sosta notturna gratuita. in GB non ce ne sono molte.

  • 4/5

    Nice for a break, too noisy for me to sleep

  • 5/5

    Magnifique pour une pause déjeuner.

  • 5/5

    Endroit sympa pour une nuit, très belle vue sur le lac, petite plage en contrebas. La nuit est calme, pas de circulation sur la route, 4G disponible.

  • 5/5

    Brilliant spot to wildcamp, close to the loch just take your time getting down to the water. Away from the road so didn’t hear the traffic, bonus was a butty van coming in the morning!

  • 3/5

    Nice pit stop for lunch. Big lay-by with nice view of the loch and down on to a little beach. No facilities, on a busy road. Shame about the dumped van and catering van, but face away from it and it’s ok.

  • 4/5

    Prima slaapplaats voor de nacht door te brengen. Veel verkeer, maar ‘s nachts hadden we hier geen last van. Het uitzicht over het meer en de bergen was fantastisch. Er stonden nog andere campers, wat wij alleen maar leuk vonden.

  • 4/5

    Good spot for an overnight after a long walk. Superb views over the loch

  • 4/5

    We had a great rest, the noise if the road was unnoticeable for us and we had a great surprise when we opened the blinds in the morning. The only downs for this place are the two abandoned vans and the litter at the side of the lake.

  • 4/5

    Had a relaxing night in this free loch-side park-up. The road noise was persistent throughout the night but tolerable considering it is a free park-up. Arrived in the dark, one other van there (except for closed food van and blue smashed van). Got parked overlooking loch on seemingly the only almost level ground (extreme right). Would stay again on way to/from Skye/highlands.

  • 4/5

    Nice place to stay next to the Loch. Road was very noisy until around 10:30 but then got quieter. 3 other vans here one which had a generator going but didn’t bother us during the night.

  • 5/5

    AMAZING VIEWS. Brilliant park, fantastic new facilities,toilets & showers immaculate. A very welcomed roasting shower. Also have baby change table which I’ve not seen anywhere else, £18 per night with Electruc hook up. Also ice cream van came round at 8:30 lovely welcomed surprise…

  • 4/5

    Decent place to stop, road loud during the day but nice little pebble beach and perfect loch views. one trashed van, a food van that wasn't open and no bins but fantastic 4G

  • 5/5

    Beautiful beautiful spot for a stop off lunch with a lake view! We only stayed for an hour or so but it seems you can park overnight for free. Right on the loch and so beautiful!

  • 5/5

  • 4/5

    Beautiful spot. Flat. Good phone signal. Very quiet at night. Traffic noise in the morning starts at about 7:30. It’s not too intrusive but was enough to wake me up.

  • 5/5

    Stopped here a few times to break up the journey five star view.

  • 3/5

  • 4/5

    Great views, safely away from the main road however it is still noisy late evening and early morning. Plenty of space for other campers, also used by lorries.

  • 5/5

  • 5/5

    Great spot next to A82, bit of road noise but worth it.

  • 4/5

    Perfekt für eine Nacht. Direkt neben der Straße, aber in der Nacht wenig Verkehr. Super Sonnenaufgang am nächsten Morgen.

  • 3/5

    Very close to the road so noisy during the day and intermittently during the night. Car horns at night. No rubbish bins or any other services. Lovely view. Some flat areas.

  • 4/5

    Close to the road, but very quiet at night. We were alone, the children made a campfire on the lakeshore and had marshmellows...

  • 4/5

    On the lake shore, close to the road (not too noisy at night, the wind covers the sound of the cars anyway) lots of vans and campers. no facilities but perfect for a night.
