Overview
Ardnamurchan Camp Site is a licensed campsite on the shoreline west of Kilchoan, accepting tents and campervans up to 6.5m. The operator does not accept caravans or vehicles over that length, and its directions say the signed entrance is steep. The campsite describes terraced and shoreline pitches, electric hook-up, hot showers and free Wi-Fi outside the office. Advance planning is useful here. The operator advises booking in advance, particularly when electric hook-up or a hard-standing pitch is needed, and says booking is strongly advised for campervans in July and August and for the Whitsun Bank Holiday. Visitors may turn up in season, but a pitch is not guaranteed. Published arrival is after 14:00, with departure by 10:00. Check current opening dates, availability and the arrival route directly with the campsite before setting off.
