Nevis Range Campervan Park Reviews

Very basic site but excellent showers

No lights at the campsite and had to wait on hot water heating up at the sink for washing dishes. Felt we were too close to other campers.

An awesome place to stay

A great, small site with instant access to the Nevis range. The facilities were great.

We will be back!

An excellent site & location, but one little niggle - there is only a very small hook in the showers to hang your clothes. Could do with more hangers or a small stool.

Basic but did the job

The check in was brilliant, the guy was super friendly and efficient. The van plots and spaces were great and level. My only gripe is that the toilets and showers were really far away. This meant I had to accompany the kids constantly to go to the toilet as it was out of eye line. We stayed for one night, it was quiet and comfortable.

Very clean, tidy site

Facilities are basic, though tidy, but the new shower block is excellent, an outstanding facility. Why aren't all campsite showers like this?! Shame though that they appear not purely for the campsite. Not really sure why I was given a key card when they were permanently unlocked. You can stay in the centre's main car park and access all the facilities except an electric hook up for at least £10 less. I felt that was expensive electric, even by todays cost. That said, the centre is a great place to stay. Food at the centre is reasonably priced and very tasty. Definitely have a ride in a gondola up to the top, the view is spectacular. This is my second visit and we will be back in the Autumn.

Weekend at Anoch Mhor

Great location for visiting the mountain resort. Great facilities, which were spotlessly clean. One negative point is the Wi-Fi signal did not cover the camping area.

Nice location

The Campervan Park location is superb, I have used the main car park many times over the years for MTB events and weekends away alike. The showers and toilets are superb and spotless. I'm all for charging for these facilities but my only gripe is I thought £66 for 2 nights was a bit steep, it's not a cost I would be willing to pay on a regular basis. Other than that, we had a great 2 nights away.

Our stay

Nice place to stay. Facilities (toilets & showers) are a bit of a walk from the campsite, could potentially swap the car park and move it further away? System at the gate seemed a bit strange when trying to exit, especially in the early morning! Other than that, beautiful facilities and staff were all very, very nice!

Fantastic!

I would recommend this park to everyone with a van or a camper because everyone is so gentle and nice and the place is super cool, clean and beautiful.

Perfect site

Really quiet site. Amazing with new and perfectly clean facilities. Staff very friendly and helpful. Awesome mountain biking. Limited evening food options on site. The bar does expensive burgers.

Great stop over, open all year

Great, small camper (6 meter max) park near Fort William. EHUs, waste, water and shower units plus bar and cafe. Great place for mountain biking. I feel like they need to get a grey waste disposal put in though.

Campervan & MTB

Excellent location & peaceful site. Showers were the only let down as they were dirty only because water wasn't draining away easily, probably a drainage problem. Could also do with a drop box for toilet access cards as I left early morning. Café & restaurant were excellent. Will stay again.

Site's response

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay, Lindsay. I have requested our maintenance team take a look at the showers and find out why they are draining slowly. This will hopefully be rectified soon. Keys can be dropped off earlier at our hotel reception if you are departing before our ticket office opens. I will take a look at our arrivals and departures information to ensure this is made clear going forward.

Will most certainly be back

From booking in until booking out, the staff were extremely helpful and were just willingly wanting to help so that your stay was a good one. The food in the bar in the evening was well received after a hard day out on the hills biking and hiking. Will most certainly be back.

Okay but wouldn't rush back

The site could be great but we got put right next to another van, despite only 4 others on site. Our van was only 3 meters long and we barely fit in to a corner slot. It is a reasonable walk to the loos and showers. The showers don't drain, so within seconds, the tray is full and there's one small hook to hang everything, which means you have to leave things on the floor, running the risk of it getting wet when the tray spills over. There was somewhere to eat if you like burgers but half the menu wasn't available and expensive. Signage to lower MTB trails is limited. Check in was confusing and it took 15 minutes to find us on their system.

Site's response

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay! I will raise your concern with the shower drainage with our maintenance team to get that rectified. We have recently implemented a new booking management system to manage our campervan park bookings, this may have meant the team took a little longer as we get used to the system.

Awesome place

Nice level standings to park on with plenty of space between pitches. Nice and clean facilities with great showers. However, the price of the pitch does not include the "overnight parking fee" of £15 which you have to pay to get out the car park. This could be made clear when booking. Aside from that, an awesome base for mountain biking or walking around Nevis Range.

Site's response

The overnight parking charge is not applicable to Campsites.co.uk guests. Your car registration will have been added to our system for you to just drive out when required. Please reply to your confirmation email letting us know you paid additional parking, our team will rectify this. Thanks, Ally.

Spot on

Perfect for what you need if attending the trails. Short walk to the uplift site. Wash up, fresh water and bin area nearby. Showers and washrooms are a short walk in different buildings but this is no different to any other campsites.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay! We are glad you had a good time and we hope to welcome you back again soon!

Chilled spot

Quiet, chilled spot. Easy access to the trails. The most amazing showers and facilities we've ever had camping.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay, Verity! We are delighted to hear you enjoyed your time here and got the chance to check out our fantastic bike trails!

Flooded pitch

We had severe down pours of rain during the night and woke to find our camper with about 6 inches of water round our pitch, the only pitch that seemed to have this problem. There were only 3 campers on this site so they must have known this one flooded in bad weather. The fellow who arrived just before us was struggling to put on his electric, which isn't easy. We have been here before so knew what to do.

Peaceful and relaxing

Izzy was the perfect staff member to help. This was a layover stop for us and an opportunity to see Ben Nevis. The pitches are really designed for day vans and not motorhomes. With that being said, pitch 4 was large enough for our our twin axle 7 meter Ducato and room alongside for our Smart tow car. There is no toilet facility near the pitches and requires a fair walk to the main building, in bad weather, this isn't ideal. The toilets are shared toilets with the visiting public so are exceptionally busy, not ideal for someone paying to stay overnight. It really is designed for extreme sports enthusiasts and not a holiday destination. The "check in" isn't ideal, you have to queue with the public who are waiting to purchase tickets for the cable cars. There aren't any signs when arriving advising where to go with your vehicle, it feels like it's a new set up. There wasn't any grey waste facility but chemical toilet waste point on site was handy, especially with the poor weather. In all, it was quite, peaceful to a degree, although the guys who arrived to go biking in their transits and VW's were slamming the sliding doors 'till late, so again highlighting it isn't a holiday stop. Izzy was really helpful as we booked while travelling and gambled we would fit and technically, we didn't, but she helped us and it was fine, no dramas. Showers were nice and decent but again far away from the pitches and designed for all visitors, I feel they need to offer a separate facility block for the campers. Generally the site is clean and tidy, we are glad we stayed to be honest and would again.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed aspects of your stay and would stay with us again. I will pass on your lovely comments about Izzy to our ticket office manager. Upon booking, you are asked to confirm the size of your vehicle with the maximum length being 6m as this is what can comfortably fit in the pitches. It sounds like you had plenty of room to fit a 3 axle vehicle plus a tow car.

Our stay

I think this campsite is quite new and you can clearly see they are working on this with the building work going on. We were confused with checking in as they were no one to guide us where to go. We just followed the signs to the campsite and another camper told us that we needed to go to the hotel reception. We went to reception and the sign told us to go to the gondola desk. I informed the young lady that we were booked for 2 nights but she said there was no booking. I showed her the reservation number. She told me I would just have to just go where ever is available as they are fully booked, even though there were only our van and one more, out of 15 pitches there at that time. Even when the site did get more vans, at no point during our stay did the site fill. I was confused by this. I'm not sure if she was having a bad day. Now I know the pitch numbers, I would definitely reserve a pitch as our was right under the trees and we had to sit with lights on in the day. The plus side to this campsite was the mountain biking, the walks and parkrun were amazing. We had a few drinks in the bar after a day of activities and the girls in there were friendly and there was a lovely atmosphere in there. We would definitely recommend this place.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay, Michelle! It states in your welcome email (that includes a site map) where to go to get checked in here at the campervan park. Thank you for your comments regarding the check-in experience, we will look into how this was handled and streamline the process. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed all of the fantastic activities available around the site and the atmosphere here during your stay!

Thank you for your kind review! I hope you can come back and visit us again soon!

Okay stay

Okay stay. Nice facilities, although they are quite a walk away. Lovely bar at Nevis Range, but even though the site says 'quiet after 11pm', the workers that were staying there were playing loud music and shouting until close to midnight.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay, Abi. When you stayed with us at the end of July, we were in full preparation mode for World Champs 2023 and we had an external events management company staying on-site for the week. We apologise for any disruption this caused and hope you can return to visit us again soon!

Very up to date facilities

Stayed to do the mountain bike trails, parked up in location! Cycle round and up the gondola 👌 Facilities were very nice, clean and up to date. Not to far from Fortwilliam itself for shopping etc.

It's a motorhome car park

Disappointed on arrival. Just a car park for motorhomes. Could just pay the overnight parking fee at front of the complex. Toilets and shower blocks clean, but designed by someone who has never camped as far away from actual parking area. Left as soon as we could to get booked in elsewhere.

Site's response

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay, Suzanne. We'd like to point out that our listing gives a very accurate representation of our campsite area with its hardstanding pitches and excellent forest location to enjoy lots of adventure sports or a peaceful retreat. And as you mentioned, the facilities area is a few minutes walk from the site. Please also note that while overnight parking is available in our main car park, this doesn't include access to the facilities area or electric hook-up. Thanks.
