Isle of Rum Campsite

Positiv: A beautiful seaside setting on a East-facing bay and very good facilities considering the remote setting make this an excellent campsite.

Positiv: The campsite is close to the ferry terminal, community hall and shop, which makes it an ideal setting off point for adventuring on Rum. The drying room for your wet stuff was a lifesaver. It's super warm and the dehumidifier helped to dry everything very quickly.

Negativ: This is an incredibly poor place for campers, and also the most expensive I've ever seen. We paid £48 for 2 nights - 1 tent and 2 people. I would really like to know where the money goes, because the facilities for campers are so poor. The campsite is very small and a long, several minute walk to the toilet and showers. There was only 1 working toilet which didn't flush well. The ground also isn't suitable for camping - the rain flooded the campsite ground and it became a bog. Even the Bunkhouse was surrounded by ankle deep water in places. I'm not judging the campsite because of the rain (it IS Scotland!), but the extremely wet conditions just highlighted how little thought or effort they put into the campsite. It is obviously a place tailored to the Bunkhouse, NOT camping. If you're staying here, choose the Bunkhouse!

Negativ: Toilet was really the public loo and a long way off

Positiv: Lovely setting for a campsite and all the staff are friendly and helpful. A little walk to the toilets/showers but nothing worse than you'd have at some of the bigger campsites and a 10 minute walk from the local store. If a peaceful camping trip is what you want then this is the place.

Positiv: Surely the best camping spot in the world. Great views, hot showers, wild swimming, great mountains on your doorstep

Positiv: Lovely location and some great amenities - the chairs and cooking tables, and the bbq kit were really appreciated

Negativ: We were there during a quiet time so were allowed to use the very nice showers and bathrooms in the bunkhouse - had we not been, it would have been quite irritating to have to walk back and forth to the public facilities up the road. We were also reasonably lucky with the weather, but if it had been wetter the instruction not to cook inside the campsite shelter would have been an issue - where would we have been able to shelter to cook?

Positiv: The views from the camp spot were lovely and the was a hide which was available for shelter. There are also stone BBQs and the racks etc were available for use in the hide.

Negativ: Toilets and showers were quite a distance away from the camp. You can't use the bunkhouse facilities. There are quite a few boggy patches in the camp site. Quite expensive for a tent pitch.

Positiv: The shelter hut was great for sorting gear after being out in the hills. And then as a place to retreat to when the rain and hail showers came down. Beautiful view from it too.

Negativ: A bit of a hike to the toilets and showers.

Positiv: The facilities were excellent, particularly the cabin, where I could escape the rain or midges. The location is stunning and all the facilities were very clean and well cared for. The cooking tables, folding chairs and barbecues were a real bonus for campers because we cannot carry these. There were good guides for various walks and the binoculars in the cabin were a nice touch. It is clear the site manager has put a lot of thought into creating a perfect camp site.
