Large Tent - Non Electric Wild PitchesJul 2024

Loved the location. Was our first time camping in the tent and we had a great time. The only thing was that there were stones below the grass which made it a bit uncomfortable for us to sleep, may be that's how it is. But no complaints, would definitely recommend.

Lovely campsite

Beautiful setting and nice layout of campsite. Staff were friendly and the food truck was good. Facilities ok, but not massive and not the cleanest.

Great experience

We had a lovely stay. The site was very well maintained and the staff were absolutely lovely. They work very hard to keep the campsite running smoothly and it shows. Thanks for a nice break!

The best campsite we've ever been to! The area is absolutely gorgeous, the campsite well organised. Plenty of space for everyone, wide range of setups possible, feels like wild camping, but with all the conveniences available. Bathrooms very clean and never too busy. Staff very knowledgeable and friendly. Will definitely be back when in the area!

Amazing site in spectacular scenery

My son and I had high expectations after seeing other reviews and social media before we arrived and boy, we were not disappointed at all. In fact it was even better than we could have hoped for. The location is absolutely breath-taking, the facilities are well maintained and extensive and the staff were fantastic. There are some great walks right on your doorstep, and a fantastic pub just a 10 minute walk down the road. We even had decent weather during our stay! We will definitely be returning as soon as we can!

Will 100% visit again

This campsite is now one of our favourites. Plenty of spaces to pitch up your tent without being cramped. Very clean facilities. Firepits everywhere available to use. Handy food van on site and an ice cream van that visits. Very friendly staff. Remote enough to feel like you're in the wild but not too remote that you're out of the way.

Short & sweet stay, lovely location

We turned up later than we'd hoped so we couldn't fully experience the surroundings. The staff are very welcoming, helpful and friendly. It's a bigger site than we thought it would be. However, it's well thought out and very peaceful. The facilities are clean and the showers are good. There is also an excellent pub 10 minutes walk up the road. The only downside was the midge invasion in the morning! There was a broad spectrum of people staying from couples like us, groups of friends, families, people in tents and people with campers.

Very welcoming. Very helpful. Fire pits on site and a short walk to Clachaig Inn for a beer and excellent food. Couldn't wish for a better secluded campsite in the true wilds of Scotland. Amazing scenery everywhere you look.

Very good

Small Tent - Non Electric Wild PitchesMay 2024

The place is wonderful, people respected the schedule (10pm quiet time). Very kind service, nice contact with the staff. Maybe difficult to find pitch when you come back at the end of the afternoon and the new campers have arrived. Luckily we had a tent, but they were 2 times someone had parked in front of our tent with their campervan. There was a lack of showers. Maybe a 2d sanitary block could be nice in another place as there were lots of people and it was dirty quickly. For the price, for us, the difference was real : 4 nights camping elsewhere was £92, 4 nights in Red Squirrel was £120 with the same service and beauty of the site. Thank you.

Cracking location

Medium Tent - Non Electric Wild PitchesMay 2024

Beautiful site, right next to the river, and with the mountains all around. Lots of birds (cuckoos and owls, while we were there) and deer, as well as the site kitten. Reception was helpful, and have facilities for hiring wood burners with logs, as well as chargers for phones, iPads etc. Only thing that would improve it would be a toilet/shower block at the other end of the site. A catering van provides hot food at the weekends, but apart from that the only eating places are a couple of miles away.

Excellent Camping site

A fantastic site, in an amazing location supported by great staff. Everyone was helpful, facilities were clean, water was hot. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a "back to nature" experience. An abundance of fire pits and available wood. The site had a great vibe. Will be returning for sure.

Best site ever

This was the best campsite we stayed at on our trip! Everything was top-notch: beautiful pitches, a stunning and convenient location, lots of walks in the area, clean amenities, and very helpful and friendly staff. Watching Noodle the cat scamper around was the cherry on top. Would stay again in a heartbeat and will be recommending Red Squirrel to anyone camping in the Glencoe area!

Fabulous campsite

Large Tent - Non Electric Wild PitchesApr 2024

Absolute gem of a campsite. The location is in one of the most awe-inspiring places on the planet and the campsite manages to provide everything that is needed, whilst still retaining the wild beauty of its surroundings. Staff very friendly and helpful, facilities clean and the water hot! There are fire pit locations and water points for fabulous fresh mountain spring water dotted around the site and even a super friendly campsite cat called Noodle! I am sure we'll be returning. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Great site

Medium Tent - Non Electric Wild PitchesMar 2024

Stayed for 2 nights with my grandson. The whole site is set out beautifully to accommodate everyone, no matter how you are camping. Surrounded by stunning snow capped mountains. The birds singing, woodpeckers, owl's having a chat at night all adds to the sense of the outdoors. The amenities are great with plenty of showers/toilets. Washing machine & tumble dryer available also. Go see the lads at the burger bar. Great food, friendly & very welcoming. Overall, my first stay & not the last. Thank you to everyone who works hard to make it a success ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Excellent time

We had a great time here. The facilities were brilliant and because it was off-season and the site was so large, we were able to pitch up in a nice quiet corner by the stream and let our dog have a great time in the water!

Wonderful experience
