There’s nothing like a bit of retro in today’s high paced, high priced, & high expectations world. Bunchrew is a caravan site from a long gone era. I’m reminded of the old army camp of Cultybraggan, in Perthshire which I last visited in 1976. Both were PoW Camps in WWII. Bunchrew seems to be a stop off site to & from the North of Inverness. There are chalets that are disintegrating, with people still apparently living permanently in them. The gentleman at reception is exactly that, a well mannered gentleman, from the time the site was probably first opened for the tenting & caravan towing families back when I was probably a still a lad! The parking up on a pitch was easy, the gentleman from reception rode down astride his pushbike & waved nonchalantly at a general area, for us to put our motorhome. He then rode off in his woolen pullover & mustard coloured corduroy trousers, back to a waiting customer in the onsite shop. As the day progressed there were many new arrivals. This is where the problems started. The rules for distance between units is 6 metres. Another Motorhome pulled in between ours & the Motorhome parked on our right hand side. That was the 6 metres fire safety gap gone. It’s not as though there was even a view to see. Just a load of other tents & caravans. If they had stayed back on the grass they would have had the same view but about 7 metres either side of them? Is it herd mentality, & thinking there’s safety in numbers? Lord knows! The ablutions are basic. In the male toilets, there’s still a percentage of individuals still apparently confused by how the flush system works. The showers are a separate room next to the toilet & operating on a pull chain system, through the most robust Heath Robinson thick galvanised steel articulated arms. It looked severely over engineered. There was many hooks & stays to hang up your clothes. Just as well, as the floor gets wet up to the door. The water pressure was good & water warm enough. My foot kept going into the drain, even though there’s a rubber mat to stand on. Overall, it’s basic, we paid £31 for one night. It’s quiet, even though it was very busy as it got to evening time. The pot wash area has 2 sinks, but only one swivel tap, & no plugs in said sinks. There’s a burger van on site, which is open at breakfast time & evenings 7 days a week. Wife had a bap with bacon 🥓 & I had a Lorne & Haggis for our breakfast. They were 4*. Absolutely fresh & delicious. £4- £4.50 depending on your fillings. Highly recommend. I do hope that my comments are off putting. The place is just crying out for an upgrade. People have different expectations now. Certainly when you’re north of £25 per night. Then again if you’re happy to stay in an old style camping site, you will be in Nirvana..
