Galson Campsite

Gostou Good spaced pitches and sheltered from winds (we had 60mph). New, clean welfarefacilities on site. Best WiFi we've ever had at a campsite for uninterrupted streaming (telly even did all it's updates too) - the password is at the bottom of the Accessibility document. Nice moorland views.

Gostou Loved the place, very quiet as its has fewer pitches, toilets and kitchen were clean. Enjoyed the stay. Would definitely recommend it.

Gostou Clean facilities (toilet and bath), nice station for clean water.
Easy emptying the black water.
Thank you to the sweet woman who helped us with the electricity (she was cleaning the facilities)

Não gostou You had to empty the gray water wirt a bucket or a hose, which we didnt have (rentet RV). We had to dump our graywater at a nearby gas station.
No one was in the office to ask questions. No one answered the phonenumbers listet on the door(s).

Gostou Hard standing pitch for only a few vehicles, pitches were well spaced out. Amenities are simple and clean with a small kitchen area and showers and toilets, all in good working order and good quality.
Situated near to good costal walks, beaches and Butt of Lewis lighthouse.
Staff were helpful and friendly.

Gostou Toller Womo Stellplatz zum Erkunden der Insel. Liegt etwas abseits der Straße hinter einer kleinen Firma. Der Platz verfügt über 4 Parzellen mit Strom. Er ist sehr gepflegt, liegt ruhig und zentral, die sanitären Anlagen sind tiptop. Wir hatten 4 Nächte gebucht und konnten somit von dort aus unsere Besichtigungen bzw. Wanderungen anfahren und abends wieder an den Platz zurück fahren. Da die Insel nicht so groß ist, ist das gut zu machen. Zum richtig ‘Campen’ ist der Platz eher ungeeignet.

Não gostou Bei Vollbelegung des Platzes verfügt der Platz nur über 1 Dusche. Was einfach zu wenig ist. Leider kommt das Wasser nur sehr sparsam und mäßig warm. Haare waschen ist da sehr schwierig.

Gostou Everything. Clean, easy to get to and use facilities. Very peaceful.

Não gostou Nothing the site was amazing.

To pre-warn future travellers though, isle of Lewis is a bit windy so cooking out doors might be a problem.

There was also no WiFi but isle of Lewis had the best internet connection so no loss for me

Gostou Clean and well kept facilities. Good location. Only 4 plots so quiet.

Gostou Clean and new generous pitch size. All 5 pitches close to service block.

Não gostou What limited facilities there are, they are first class, new and very clean.
However the down side for us was that these facilities are open to the public.
This is not an enclosed site. No warden 24/7.
If you are an older couple like us there was no sense of security or of help after hours should you need it.
With only one shower, when a car drove up and 3 people showered one at a time, the wait time for the shower was nearly 90 minutes.
Last point, on arrival we called the out of hours number with a query and gave our details but no call back received.
