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.
Great campsite

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, 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.

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.
Good stay!

We stayed there for one night with our motorhome. Beautiful place by the water. Nice people at the reception, you could shop for some things there. Good and clean toilet facilities, the showers are great! No extra pay, nice and very warm!
Fantastic!

I would definitely recommend this campsite, was our first time camping and can't wait to book another trip! The staff at reception were extremely helpful and kind, everywhere was spotless. Toilet block was clean. Play park was fantastic for keeping our toddler entertained. 5 star review.
Ideal site for ferry terminal.

We chose this site for its location near the Oban Ferry Port as we needed to be on the early morning ferry to Mull. It's along a 2 mile single track road but there was very little traffic and we made the journey in about 10 minutes. It's too far to walk into town but we noticed a bus stop at the entrance to the site. As it was a very short overnight stay, we didn't use any facilities other than the toilets and dishwashing facilities. Both were clean. There were plenty of wash basins and showers - I just wish they would provide cubicles with a wash basin in- we don't all like to get changed/wash in public. The grass/electric pitches were very soft and muddy due to the amount of rain and we were advised to park with the front of the van towards the road. The staff were friendly and had our paperwork ready. I don't know if there was a problem with the Wi-Fi (there was someone working up a ladder nearby) because we never managed to get connected.
