Question 1

Is CamperLocations free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes. CamperLocations is free to use. Our aim is to make it easier to find responsible overnight options, useful facilities and local businesses across Lochaber and the Highlands.

Question 2

Can I stay overnight at every location shown?

Accepted Answer

Not automatically. Always check the listing details before travelling. Some locations allow overnight stays, some require booking, and others may only be suitable for daytime parking or visiting.

Question 3

Do I need to book in advance?

Accepted Answer

Some places require booking, particularly campsites, private land stays and popular overnight locations. Check the booking section on each listing before you travel.

Question 4

Can I wild camp in my campervan in Scotland?

Accepted Answer

There is no blanket right to park or stay overnight in a motor vehicle under Scotland's outdoor access rights. Only stay where overnight parking is permitted, welcomed or clearly managed for campervans. Always follow signs, local restrictions and instructions from landowners or site operators.

Question 5

Why are some exact locations not shown?

Accepted Answer

Some locations may use an approximate map point to protect privacy, avoid congestion or respect a landowner's wishes. Exact details may be shared after booking or direct contact.

Question 6

What does "Council-listed" mean?

Accepted Answer

A council-listed location has been included because it appears in an official council or public-sector source. It does not necessarily mean the site is managed by CamperLocations or that the operator has confirmed every detail.

Question 7

What does "Details checked" mean?

Accepted Answer

Details checked means CamperLocations has reviewed the listing against current public, operator or official information. The operator has not yet personally confirmed the listing, so always check current booking, access and local arrangements before travelling.

Question 8

What does "Operator verified" mean?

Accepted Answer

Operator verified means the business, landowner or site operator has reviewed or confirmed their listing details with us.

Question 9

How do I report incorrect information?

Accepted Answer

Use the "Suggest an update" or "Claim this listing" option on the page. You can tell us about changed access, facilities, pricing, closures or anything else that may help fellow travellers.

Question 10

I own or manage a location. Can I claim it?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can claim your listing, update the details, add photos, clarify booking arrangements and help make sure travellers receive accurate information.

Question 11

Can I add a new stay, facility or local business?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We welcome suggestions for responsible overnight stays, water and waste facilities, food shops, cafés, attractions and useful local services.

Question 12

Why does CamperLocations include cafés, shops and things to do?

Accepted Answer

A good campervan trip should benefit the places people visit. The site helps travellers find local services and attractions, while encouraging people to spend locally rather than simply passing through.

Question 13

What does responsible campervan travel look like?

Accepted Answer

Stay only where welcome. Leave no trace. Use proper waste facilities. Do not block access, passing places, gates or local services. Keep noise low, respect nearby homes and wildlife, and move on if asked.
