I’m generally not a fan of campsites and much prefer being off grid.
But I’m leaving next weekend for our 2 weeks holiday around Scotland in the camper and like the campsites that are really basic.
No marked pitches just park where you want and a toilet.
I’ve no set plans as usual just a vague idea of which direction we are heading of in.
So would like your recommendations of more wild campsites like this you have been to please.
Can be anywhere in Scotland.
It’s more about having a bit space. We don’t like being stuck in close between other campers.
 
I've had my caravan up at Bunroy Caravan park in Roy Bridge, about 20 min from Fort William for the last 7 wks. Has 1 block, great showers and park where you want on the grass with plenty of picnic benches dotted about. They also do hard standing. Full of rabbits and not uncommon to come across wild deer out walking or driving. It also sits on the River Spean. No play area and dogs welcome

Sounds ideal thanks mate.
I will check it out
 
There’s a 2 day max camping spot with a loo £10 suggested donation, looking out over Skye on Loch Hourn in a hamlet called Corran, approx grid ref NG 84905 09412 nicely off the beaten track. 2 or three van max. I took a walk up the hill from there, Beinn Sgritheall. As nice a place I’ve yet to find. A herd of deer came for a swim next to us just before sun down. A magical place. Enjoy the trip

How’s black adder doing? :rofl:
 
We loved our stay here:


Close to the banks of Loch Craignish, its a basic but lovely site, has showers, toilets washing up facility and consists of 8 (I think) pitches and the owner is a great friendly guy, chatty but isnt in your face and leaves you in peace.

Lovely walks down the Loch to Kirkton and beyond with a pub in Ardfern.
