This is a review for the café (not the campsite). This was a lovely and unexpected find on a secluded and remote beach. There is really good coffee and tea and a great selection of cakes, pastries and vegetarian pasties and the cafe feels really welcoming and friendly. The shop is mainly aimed at people using the campsite, but it's still worth having a browse. If you've just visited the water falls (about 4 miles up the road) or have driven down to walk on the beach this cafe is definitely recommended. It's also dog friendly.
Thoroughly excellent camp site - absolutely stunning setting with mountains to one side and a gorgeous bay to the other. Very little else around, it's a small way on from the famous fairy pools, but few people seem to venture past. Tons of great walks. The camp site itself is large (so a long walk to the shower and toilet blocks if you're the other end of camp) but has lots of features, hills and undulations, so it's not just one big field. Really lovely cafe and shop too.
We stopped at the Cafe while on a tour and it was lovely, one of our favorite Cafe stops over our 5 day tour. The food and coffee were delicious and the owner was a sweetheart. We would go out of our way to come here again. Highly recommend.
What a find! After walking the fairy ponds follow the signs to this wonderful spot! The coffee was outstanding! We sampled some of the baked goods and much to our delight they were all amazing! Make sure you say hello to Duke the friendly dog!
We stayed on this camp site on our trip to the Isle of Sky! It has Mountain View’s, sand and sea views right from where you are parked. There is waste disposal, bins, and a washing up area which is a great addition. There is also a little cafe/ bakery with loads of adventure gear which is great if you forget anything or need something for your trip. Would definitely return.
The scenery is pretty, OK, the staff are very nice, OK. But the toilets and showers are really unsanitary! During my 4 showers, I never had warm or hot water. It was freezing cold. You could hear the children crying about it, and some of the women even shaved in the shower, leaving their rubbish behind... I think that if rules were put in place, such as removing shoes at the entrance to the showers, and showering outside on the way back from the beach, the place would be more hygienic and pleasant for everyone...
My girlfriend and i had a very pleasant stay here. Everything was perfect and beautiful, the staff was friendly and the showers and toilets were very clean.
A variety of local beers would have been perfect too, but it's fine and it remains family friendly
Wowwww! The most beautiful campsite we have ever stayed at!
No reservations, but they claim to be able to accommodate everyone who shows up. Long single-track road to get there. Lots of potholes as you get closer.
Check in at the cafe (and order a homemade bread to pick up warm the next morning!). Then pick your own spot.
Toilets cleaned twice a day!
There are at least two hikes from the campsite. We walked out to the headland... breathtaking! Had to cross several streams running down the slopes, some quite substantial, but nobody fell in. Ruins about 5 km into the hike. There's a lot of water, on the trail and around it. Waterproof boots necessary!
We also saw people kayaking and going out to climb.
Our biggest mistake was not spending a second night!
