Located just a five minute walk from the sandy beach of Tralee Bay and 20 minutes from Oban, 'Gateway to the Isles' you have the best of both. Offering spacious grass and hardstanding touring pitches, luxury glamping pods and safari tents there is an option for all. Modern facilities and a communal BBQ too!

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Touring PitchesAug 2025

Well maintained site in a good location for accessing areas nearby. Love the proximity to the beach with a great view of the bay. We came to this site due to limited availability at our preferred sites. That was to our benefit as we will definitely come back here. Good local bus service means you can leave the car and go into Oban. The only slight negative is the poor ventilation in the shower/toilet cubicles. Due to the hot weather these became like a sauna. However, this may be a benefit in the normally colder months that Scotland sees much more of.

Fabulous Place

Glamping Pod - Glencoe Ensuite Glamping Pods with Hot Tub Aug 2025

We loved our stay here. The pod was cosy, comfortable and very private. Because it was positioned at the far end of the park, it was also very peaceful. We enjoyed all the facilities and although we had a small shower in our pod, we were pleased that we could use the more spacious shower block as well, if we wished. The park grounds are immaculate and the wardens are around all the time keeping it that way. They were all incredibly friendly and helpful too. The sister site a few hundred yards along the road has access to the beach and overall, the location was fantastic for us. Less than 10 miles from Oban and lots of nice quiet roads around for easy cycling. The local cafes and restaurant were within walking distance. We enjoyed it so much we are already planning to return.

Wow what a great review Lorna, thank you! We are very glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and also all of the local beauty Oban/Benderloch has to offer. Looking forward to seeing you again soon :) Kind regards, Ellie.

Excellent site.

Glamping Pod - Argyll Ensuite Glamping Pods with Hot TubJul 2025

Lovely glamping pod overlooking the trees with mountain view. Private and peaceful. Pod was like a studio apartment lodge. Comfortable bed. Hot tub was great. Firepit and outdoor seating area too. Had issue with the shower which was attended to and repaired very promptly. Only suggestion would be to have a mattress protector as well as a sheet on the bed. Short walk to beautiful beach. Shop in the village was well stocked. Short drive to Oban centre.

Site's response

Hi Roslyn, Many thanks for taking the time to leave us a great review - my apologies as the bed should have a mattress protector on I will speak to the guys and make sure they are on all the beds. We hope to see you again! Kind regards Andrea

A nice site with all the facilities you require. Shower block is no frills but totally functional clean and well maintained. This is not a criticism. Nice location with access to beach through campsite opposite. Has everything you need for a nice holiday. The pods looked amazing from what we saw. Good location to get to Oban and Glencoe. Highly recommend

Glamping Pod - Highlander Ensuite Glamping Pods with Hot Tub (Dog Friendly)Jul 2025

Pod was amazing, cozy and comfortable. Had everything you need for self catering. Bed was so comfy and great pillows.Thank you for complimentary kitchen cleaning box with washing up liquid, cloths and dish towels. Hot tub was excellent and easy to follow instructions. Beautiful location few miles to Oban and few minutes across the road to a lovely beach which my dog especially loved. All in all a relaxing few nights in Benderloch . Cleanliness was near 100 % but visible dog hairs on mat outside from previous campers which got trampled inside

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Touring PitchesJul 2025

Highfield say they have a washing machine however, this is located on their sister site at Tralee Bay which is approximately 500 yards away. Visitors attending the site at Tralee Bay should be aware it has no toilet facilities whilst you wait for your washing. The nearest bus stop to Highfields is a good 12 minute walk away but once in Oban, you can reach anywhere in the Highlands. The fish and chip shack at Tralee Bay Park is a must for a visit and all in all, we had a lovely relaxing stay.

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesJul 2025

Good location, close to the beach. It was amazing to see cows walking along beach beside you enjoying the weather and they seem free to roam around between the fields and beach. Quite a surprise when we first arrived with the dogs and happy to say they didn't appear phased by visitors or dogs playing in the sea! Good toilet and shower facilities available.

Site's response

So glad that you got to see the cows enjoying a swim on the beach, they are very friendly and luckily used to the beach being busy when the weather is great so everyone can enjoy themselves. Thank you for taking the time to write a great review, Kind regards, Ellie.

Tranquil Tralee!

Motorhome - Electric Grass PitchesJul 2025

A wonderfully peaceful and well sited touring park closed to the lovely Tralee Beach. Perfect location for walking and cycling and Route 78 Oban to Fort William is just a couple of hundred metres away. The nearest shop is within easy walking distance and also carries a host of caravan and motorhome and beachy related goods. The site is well well maintained and properly set up for filling/emptying the van. Everything was easy and just worked and the bustling town is Oban is only 15 mins drive away.

Site's response

Thank you Paul! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay on the park. Hope to see you again sometime in the future. Take care, Ellie.

Safari Tent - Deluxe Safari TentsJul 2025

Our holiday stay in the deluxe safari tent was faultless. Absolutely everything we needed for a fab family stay with our children (7yo and 4yo). Really nice site and the beach being a short walk was ideal - via the small playground in the neighbouring site. Lots of activities and places to visit nearby too.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review Charlotte, so glad you and your family enjoyed the safari tents :) Hope to see you for another family holiday in the future. Kind regards, Ellie.

Glamping Pod - Argyll Ensuite Glamping Pods with Hot TubJun 2025

Absolutely stunning setting, I will say we were around 15 minutes out of Oban itself, however it's absolutely beautiful. The lodge was perfect for us to relax and get organised for exploring. The facilities such as kitchen etc were all equipped and very clean, a kitchen pack with dish soap, sponge, bin liner etc is provided, as well as small toiletries in the bathroom. The bed was very comfortable. We used the hot tub once on the first night, we couldn't work out the temperature (instructions are actually provided and they're in the kitchen) so it was either to hot or to cold, had we spent more time in the lodge we maybe would of tried harder to sort this but we were busy out and about. For the Argyll and Glencoe pods, which are adjacent to each other at the bottom of the park, there is a car park as you can't have your car parked at your lodge as there isn't space for this, however it's very close by, thought it worth mentioning though. Argyll lodge 9, if you can request it, I would as it's right next to the beautiful cows in the neighbouring field, that come up with their calf to say hello and I feel this lodge adds extra privacy as it's on the end. We will 100% recommend and definitely be back again.

Single Axle Caravan - Fully Serviced Hardstanding Touring PitchesJun 2025

Very clean and well laid out. Very quiet site but that is due to the site being 80% seasonal and only a few occupied. Nice walk to the beach. Their chippy fish supper was beautiful as confirmed by numerous contented customers. Oban is a short drive away which we visited a few times.
