About Isle of Gigha Camp and Motorhome Site
This welcoming site is nestled in Ardminish Bay, with stunning views and sandy beaches. Here, the site embraces the wild terrain of the island, with pitches tucked away behind hillocks and in between beautiful rocks. There are a total of three hardstanding pitches for campervans and motorhomes up to 7m in length. Each pitch is 8m long and also comes with the added bonus of a 10 amp hook up, allowing up to six people. Caravans are not permitted on the ferry, so cannot get onto the site. For tents and campervans, there are a further 19 pitches each without electric. The site is perfect for families, couples and solo travellers looking to get away from the rush and noise of everyday life, a chance to switch off, get back to nature and chill out!

Things to do on site and in the Ardminish area
Ardminish Bay, which lies across the road from the campsite, provides silver sands to picnic on and turquoise waters to paddle and swim in.
Opposite the campsite is the Gigha Boats Activity Centre where mountain bikes, e-bikes and kayaks can be hired for exploring the island. Paths have been built that are perfect for cycling and walking away from the road and getting into the wilderness to see some of the local wildlife.
A 9-hole golf course is located a 20 minute walk (or five minute cycle) from the campsite, or in the other direction there's Achamore Gardens, established by Colonel Sir James Horlick and home to a renowned rhododendron and camelia collection.
A fabulous array of supplies, including freshly made coffee and gifts, can be purchased at the Ardminish Stores, a ten minute walk from the campsite and just around the corner from the store is Gigha Gallery Gifts where a selection of items crafted on the island are for sale.
The food offering on Gigha is second to none - fabulous fish suppers are available from The Nook at the Stores, and the Boathouse offers a fresh seafood fine dining experience you'll remember for a long time - all are within walking distance of the campsite.
