Wick River Campsite Reviews

Should be great

Nice location, within easy walking of Wick along the river. Pretty little site. Downside for us was that the new shower block wasn't finished and so temporary toilets and showers were being used, with only 3 of each. There were quite a few people on the site and not really enough facilities. The new block looked really nice and I'm sure when that is completed fairly soon that this will be a great place to stay.

Fantastic price and a fantastic atmosphere

What an amazing place that had a very peaceful atmosphere. Great for stopping by, along with a very cheap price. Unfortunately, the local pubs were average, but peaceful, which was really nice after travelling.

A one night stay

The campsite is situated in an extremely pleasant spot by the river, with a pleasant walk into Wick for eating and shopping. Rabbits were running around darting out of sight when people appeared. The campsite had a quiet, very pleasant atmosphere, with friendly, helpful staff. Whilst the new shower block build was delayed, for which the staff apologised, the temporary showers and toilets were acceptable. We ware particularly pleased to stay at the site given that it is community run.

Great campsite

Really lovely site. Well spaced out, really clean and peaceful. Temporary facilities really clean. Service was excellent. A great example of how to run a campsite!

Site's response

Hi Michelle, thank you for your review. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again in the future.

Lovely setting. Large pitches.

Lovely setting with good size pitches.

Three day trip

Lovely campsite. Will be even better when toilet block is finished. Walks for dogs and river which is never enough for swimming dogs (mine).

Lovely site with great staff

The alternative route is signposted but at first glance doesn't look suitable for motorhomes to drive along it, but it definitely is. Don't be put off, it gets wider as you drive along next to the river to the site. A new amenities area is being finished off at the moment, but the temporary shower and toilets are fine. We booked a second night to do the Whiskey tour 25 minutes walk away from the site. Would definitely recommend this site.

Amazing stay

This was easily one of the best campsites we stayed at on our NC500 route. Although new facilities were being built at the campsite, the temporary ones they had were very clean and well looked after. The campsite is in a lovely location overlooking the river, where if you walk two minutes down you get a beautiful sunset. The staff were super friendly and gave us some awesome recommendations for the NC500 that we hadn’t heard of before. Definitely stay here if you are passing through.

Campervan stay

Had a lovely stay here, it had all we needed. The new facilities being built will be awesome. Great place to get to anywhere.
