Welcome to The Ardnamurchan Camp Site - for Tents & Tourers on the West Coast of Scotland


The Ardnamurchan Campsite is perfectly situated on the shoreline to the west of Kilchoan, toward the end of a very peaceful cul de sac. It is the ideal place from which to explore West Ardnamurchan - with dramatic volcanic land and sea scapes, pristine beaches and tranquil coves. The area is a haven for wildlife, birdlife and marine life and all visitors leave with appreciation for the miles and miles of unspoilt wilderness, gentle coves and geological splendour!


Nestled twixt the southern facing edge of a long extinct volcano and the sea, the campsite has provision for 25 pitches, 9 of which are located just above the high water mark, down on the foreshore - awake to the rhythm of waves gently filling the many rockpools. The sloping nature of the site, with careful flat terracing ensures everyone may enjoy the fantastic vista folding out from the magnificent Ben Hiant in the East, southward down the Sound of Mull, West across the Isle and disappearing out into the vast Atlantic Ocean!


We also have 3 self-catering units available for rent, sleeping from 2 to 6 people each. Please note that tents, tourers, campervans and dogs are welcome but regretfully we are unable to take Caravans.


The Kilchoan Hotel with public bar and restaurant is a pleasant 2km walk away. The village also has a shop and a Community Centre with local information, Cafe and a 3-D geology display of the Ardnamurchan Volcanic Ring Complex. The shop stocks food stuffs, some fresh fruit and vegetables newspapers, souvenirs and has a post office.

It's the location, overlooking a sea loch on Scotland's west coast that makes this small campsite so special."

Dougie Wragg and Jo Cardwell are delighted to announce that they are the new owners of Ardnamurchan Campsite. They are taking over from Trevor Potts, who put his heart and soul (and not a little blood sweat and tears) into creating and developing the site for the last 20 years

PLANS FOR RE-OPENING


We are pleased to announce that we plan to re-open the campsite, caravan and cabin on the 1st of August 2020 (conditional on any future changes to Scottish Government Guidance) and are now taking bookings.


PLEASE NOTE: we are now fully booked for August, but still taking bookings for September and October


Please use our Contact Us/Enquiry form on this site to ask about other availability.


Initially we will run at half capacity to ensure we can maintain the highest standards of cleanliness in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.


In the remaining weeks of closure, we will be working on adapting and improving our facilities to support safe Social Distancing.


If you are able to bring your own portable toilet facilities - eg a separate toilet-tent on your pitch or use the lavatory in your campervan/motorhome for use in preference to the small, communal facilities on the site, this will help us provide the safest environment we can for all our guests.


We look forward to finally being able to welcome you!
