Camping at Golspie Reviews

Holiday

Was not what was expected on an industrial estate.

Site's response

Camping at Golspie, Golspie Business Park is on the southern outskirts of Golspie, benefitting from excellent road transport links to the main A9 Inverness/Wick trunk road. All local services and amenities can be found in Golspie, a short walk away. We are a small motorhome Aire based in the small Business Park providing all amenities for guests. We have big skies above us and with open countryside, mountainous and sea views all around. There are only 2 offices based in the Business Park, from which a minimal amount of traffic frequents the Business Park. So to avoid any ambiguity or misunderstanding, I want to state that Camping at Golspie is not located within an Industrial Estate.

Not happy having to pay for a shower

It was a bit noisy from the cars passing on the road and we were also not happy having to pay to use the shower.

Thank you for your review. We are in a great location just off the notorious NC500, (A9) in Golspie. As a main corridor trunk road, there will be some road noise but does quieten down during the night. We are predominately a motorhome Aire, though we try and cater for everyone. We don't advertise a shower on site because as a year round site we have to close the shower during the frosty winter months and wouldn't want to disappoint prospective guests. We decided that by installing a shower facility, it allowed us to offer more services to those who don't have their own facilities on board, eg, rooftop tents, walkers, cyclists, wild campers etc. So to keep our prices competitive, we ask for a small contribution towards the running costs of the electric shower. The shower has proven to be very popular with guests but it's a matter of choice as to whether you shower in your own van or use our clean spacious shower for £1.

A small, convenient overnight stay on the NC500

This park was perfect for an overnight stay, if your on route, or you want to explore the area. It's a small site, with good hardstanding, clean facilities. You do need to pay a £1 if you want to use the shower and you also need to pay £10 to dispose of your chemical waste here. Overall, it suited us for a one night stay.

Thank you for your review. Just to confirm that paying guests do not need to pay the £10 service charge, as this is included in the pitch fee. As an additional service, we offer a useful onsite service point for motorhome and campervan users to maintain their vehicle services whilst travelling.

Perfect

Warm shower, clean toilets, electric hook-up, close to the village. Perfect.

One night in Golspie!

A great little place to stay for the night. Easy to find, everything in great condition and just what you need for a night.

Well located for beach

A well organised, clean site, well located for the beach. We visited out of season so it was quiet. Site well organised, clean, disabled toilet/shower facility exceptional (in my view) for a campsite. Close to sandy beach for dog walks and Golspie town centre close by too. Site easy to find and access. Hosts attentive with texts checking everything was okay. Would definitely return.
