Red Squirrel Campsite Reviews

Great wild camp

Great location. Could do with extra toilets at the far end of the camp. Can't wait to go back again.

Thank you for your review. With regards to the extra toilets at the far end of the site - we have looked into it, and sadly it isn't possible due to the area and ground. But we are still pleased you enjoyed your stay. ~ Sandi

Lovely campsite in a great location

This campsite was bigger than we would normally stay in but as it was spread over 22 acres, it didn't feel like a big site. Beautiful location spread through the woods and by the river if you choose. Staff very friendly and responsive to any issues we had. One of the groundsmen (can't remember his name!) was a wealth of knowledge and inspired us to learn more about foraging! I would highly recommend this site for the location and staff friendliness. One possible improvement a few more toilets/showers. Although we were there on a busy bank holiday weekend and didn't actually need to queue but the blocks were very busy.

Thank you for your wonderful review. We have since opened up our "festival" toilets and also 2 shower shacks near the facilities. But usually, bank hols are a busy time anyway. Our foraging groundsman is Shayne and he IS full of knowledge. :) Hope to see you again ~ Sandi

Perfect site and facilities

We had a great 2 night stay - clean facilities, hot showers, perfect for a VW camper and a dog, with space to sit out and light a fire in the evening. Staff friendly, beautiful setting and landscaping fantastic - thoroughly recommended. Definitely use again.

Beautifully picturesque location

Located in the most scenic area of Scotland. Plenty of space. Lovely to have the river tributaries snaking around the campsite. The food truck was great. The toilets and showers were adequate, and the stocked baby and feminine products were a nice touch. Staff were really friendly and helpful.

Lovely location, spoilt a bit by noisy groups

Beautiful location, with great access to numerous hill walks and a nice pub nearby. Site has basic facilities, but all you need for a camping weekend. The dish washing area had no hot water, but the showers/toilets always did. They have a "quiet from 9pm, silence from 11pm" policy, but unfortunately it was not implemented. Both nights we were kept awake by groups playing loud music and singing/shouting, which was extremely frustrating. The first night this went on until 11:45pm, with our children also kept awake.

Thank you for your review. Upon your arrival, you would have been given a card with a night duty number on it. We always tell our guests that this number is exactly for the reason you have commented about. We expect our staff to do their nightly walks, and if that hasn't happened, I'll investigate. We also expect our guests to follow our rules, It's a real shame that you didn't have a good experience because our site is very family oriented.

Beautiful location, convenient facilities

We will be back as soon as possible. The people are friendly, the facilities are great- clean toilets, showers, dishwashing, food truck at the weekend. The location is beautiful with walks and hikes of all difficulties very nearby. For necessities, Glencoe is a short drive, an easy walk to a local shop and for petrol.

Great location!

Fab location- love the woodland feel and so much space.

Fantastic location, great facilities but gets busy!

We loved our stay at Red Squirrel. Camping under snow capped mountains with the calming sounds of a shallow river running by the pitch and the smell of campfires, this place is idyllic. Warm showers and clean facilities with laundry available. We arrived late on a Friday when most of the pitches had been taken for the weekend, so the earlier you can turn up, the better your odds at bagging a great, private spot. Close to fantastic walks - Lost Valley is a must. With a cosy, atmospheric pub at the entrance, this campsite is well placed for a well-earned post-hike beer or two!

Great location, friendly helpful staff

Great campsite, in the heart of the hills, amazing location and a bonus of being able to have a small fire at your pitch. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we will be back.
