Busy site, well located for visiting Oban/Argyll/ the islands. Spent 5 nights under canvas with electric pitch. Kids enjoyed the site, which is good for families and kids who can make their own entertainment if they are a bit big for the playground on site. Would recommend and hoping to return in future.
Great break away

Star deducted as there's no fresh water available but apart from that, excellent camping site. Very flat, which is ideal when picking tent location, great washing facilities and toilets. Oban itself is a gorgeous place, costs around £8-£10 for a taxi as site is a bit far out with walking distance. Lovely sandy beach 5 mins drive away, ideal for kayaks and paddleboards.
Beautiful site

Very well maintained park. Great location. Staff that I came across were all very friendly. Loads of families there with a small play park for kids.
Relaxing break and ideal spot for Kerrera

Camping is hit and miss and you are not allocated an actual pitch, it's turn up and find the best. Fortunately we had a pitch right at the top which was quiet but speaking to other motorhome guests, they felt the same. You did not have a dedicated pitch and some hook-ups didn't work. Facilities are very basic and no drinking water. It is spring water fed and you have to boil before you drink it. Tastes fine but the colour may out some people off. Great location for exploring Kerrera.

Had a great time camping with the kids. Nice quiet site, super friendly staff and campers. Kids had a blast running round and playing at the park. Already booked our holiday for next year.
Nice well maintained site, on the outskirts of Oban

Nice site, located 5 mins out of Oban. Decent facilities, Electric showers that you control the heat on👍👍 Although, the blue shower curtains do try and vacuum onto you 😂. Nice polite staff and a decent small shop within the office.
Great campsite, nice location

Good campsite in a nice location. Disappointing for us was the cleaning of the toilet block at 8am. I had to walk right round the site to other toilet block. Half way through my shave and the cleaning team was wanting in. Why not clean toilets at 11am when everyone is up and getting on with their holiday?
Lovely campsite in a beautful surrounding

We camped at the site with our tent for one night. It was lovely and quiet and the facilities were easy to reach and clean. I really loved the view of the sound and the neighbouring island.

Well grass pitches, but a bunch of holiday homes on site gives it a strange atmosphere. The desk times are okay, but the bins in the bath rooms should be cleaned more often.
Nice clean quiet site

We nearly moved to a different campsite. This site had great reviews but we were very disappointed. The ground is very uneven, so difficult to get our motorhome set up, and it was a real pain to have to boil the water to make it safe to drink. I didn't realise this at first and had to throw out all the salad I washed. Unfortunately, the shop was shut by then so we were out of options. I thought the play area would we an advantage but there's hardly anything there.

Beautiful, scenic campsite with a lovely walk into town along the water's edge. Staff were super friendly and helpful as well.
Nice site, easy to cycle into Oban

Nice site, big open grass spaces, but no assigned pitch so its a "free for all" on arrival. Nice play park for younger kids and lots of space for ball games etc. Only downside was the showers, the shower trays didn't drain fast enough so the floor gets very wet. There was also no seat / bench within the shower cubicle so difficult to get dry (with the very wet floor) and floor "scraper" to push standing water towards the drain. Would be prepared next time and just have flip flops and poncho for after shower! Would return for the location - staff also lovely!
Fantastic campsite in a great location

It's a lovely setting, with views over to Mull and Karrera, and you can see the little herd of highland cows being fed each day. The facilities are adequate, there's no Wi-Fi and no phone signal. The site don't allocate pitches so it's a free for all on grass pitches to get close to an EHU point. After we set up camp, a family pitched a huge tent 3 feet from our campervan habitation door, which meant their guy ropes were a trip hazard and we had no outdoor space. If we had been staying longer, we'd have asked them to move up but decided to leave early.
Beautiful peaceful site

Lovely well-maintained site. Certain pitches have lovely views. Very quiet. Staff were helpful and friendly. Got a visit from the locals...the friendly Highland Cows.
Nice location

Nice, quiet campsite, although very muddy in some of the grass areas. Busted a gut to get there before reception closed at 6 as we didn't know if we'd be able to get in (tried to call but got recorded message saying offices were closed). We got there for 5:45 but reception was already closed with our envelope taped to the door. If we'd known that, we could have enjoyed our day more and got there later.

Just outside Oban as I was catching the morning ferry to Mull, so bang on.

The staff at this park were excellent. Such a friendly welcome. We experienced some issues in our group as our Motorhome broke down. They couldn't do enough for us. Great, peaceful. Nice, little, safe fenced park for kids. Great walks and beautiful views. Toilet block was modern and clean. Will be back!
Great location but poor support

The location was brilliant, so close to Oban, and the facilities were fine. However, the main dampener was the lack of contact when we had an emergency. When we pulled into where we could pitch, the ground was so soft, the van subsequently was stuck and we were not able to get the van out. We tried all the contact details that were given to us, including the emergency numbers and we got zero response. Not even a call back. Thankfully, we were able to contact recovery and get ourselves sorted! But I was very frustrated that I could not contact anyone at the site, irregardless if they could have helped or not. Imagine if it was a situation where we needed the help! I would advise against anyone camping up on the grassy sections going forward if weather has been a bit more on the wetter side!

Ideal for us in the midst of a disastrous motorhome holiday. Great location, just what we needed. Clean facilities. Wee bit of Wi-Fi for the kids when the weather washed out anything outdoors would've been perfect.
Lovely stay

Our stay at the Oban park was brilliant. We originally booked one night but after discovering how lovely Oban was, we decided to stay another night. As the location was so close, we ventured into town a lot. It also had great views of the water. The only downfall was no laundry facilities but there was one local in town.
