Liked: What can I say other than brilliant! A friendly well run site that is rustic and quaint. It’s full of character has a wonderful sea view with free hot showers and a on site shop . A real gem to stay at with a farm yard feel about it. Highly recommended.

Liked: A stunning setting overlooking the sea for an authentic island experience. The relaxed vibe doesn’t detract from a very efficient and functional camp site. The facilities(showers, toilets, cooking etc) all constructed from recycled materials. Quirky, clever and very comfortable. A visitors conservatory houses a communal cooking area and a full range of equipment and crockery for sharing, as well as a dining/seating area - a brilliant asset in poor weather (we had brilliant weather but still used this). The site and facilities are very clean and obviously loved by the owners. An honesty shop sells fresh farm produce and local goods. The farm is very convenient to the Pentland ferry. The islands have an excellent road network and so does not feel remote. We didn’t want to leave!
Disliked: The Wheems chickens couldn’t keep up with demand for fresh eggs and we missed out on fresh organic eggs on our last morning.

Liked: The campsite has a great setting with super sea views. The friendly owners are currently re-developing the site but the communal kitchen / social area is great, they helpfully provide sufficient equipment to cook a meal etc. Toilets are clean with plenty of hot water, a useful ‘honesty’ shop will help some and the pitches are more than adequate. The campsite has a nice feeling to it which I guess is what the owners are after. Will re-visit and it will be interesting to see how they continue to develop the campsite.
