between you and Andrew Ditton anyone wanting to do a Skye trip will be sorted, loving the journey 😊

Good food, live music, and a pottery within walking distance down the road when I was there last year. Up hill coming back....

General observation of these campsites facilities is that they are very clean.

Just glorious xxx who needs to go abroad. Xx

So scenic more places on my go to list.just wish I had more time like yourselves but work gets in the way 😀

Wow beautiful scenery and amazing mountains. I just want to go now😉

More fantastic views bob thanks for showing the bottle of protection fluid for the van I will get some of that for ours cheers enjoy Skye 👍👍

Something to look forward to when I retire

Another cracking (!) video. Thank you so much. Enjoy your couple of days xx

We stayed there last year while doing the nc500 great site 😀👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Some years back, as a solo tenter, I'd booked a pitch at this site at Edinbane. The lovely gentleman running the site had reserved a pitch for me but, in view of the incoming blow on the second night of my two night stay, he offered me a space behind the high fence you see as you leave the laundry at 16.28. Having worked on North Uist, no contest and my car was parked by the vents. The wind was noisier when I decamped from behind the fence to the car in the early hours of the second night and not a soul heard me leaving before the 7am deadline.

Another amazing vid. Thank you ever so much. Will keep following. X

really enjoyed it!

We have just got back from Scotland, with our caravan, which included the site at Skye. You just past our pitch on the way to the dog walk. You seemed to have similar weather. We had a brilliant view of the Loch.

Stayed exact place last month. Well maintained site and Skye is beautiful especially the qurraing and the old man of storr, the north coast and the Mckensie memorial mountain range area.

We went to Isle of Skye many years ago when you had to pay toll for bridge and the following year they removed the toll. We stayed at Sligachan Campsite and used the Pub. We were plagued by midges and as we made a hasty retreat the morning we were leaving, we stopped at a layby up the road and wiped the windows, which was like thick black oil with midges!! We hope to go back sometime. Loving your videos of Scotland - Great job as always!!

Midges really haven't been a problem this holiday so far. North Uist was too windy, and the Smidge dies keep the few that we have seen, away.

Great Video .. looking to visit Skye in July so will be very eager to see what you get up to :)

Great vid, I can confirm no signal on 3 either and unlike most of the rest of sites in the CCC network WiFi is chargeable on the Skye site. That’s exactly the noisy wash lock fan that bothered us - we were on the first grass edged pitch just slightly to the right of facing the fan. Rest of site was glorious and restful and you could sit outside with just natural noise :)

nice video brings some memories back we stayed near the pub in Sligachan at the camp site greetings from the netherlands

Wow the mountain views are spectacular! Your camera is ace,looks amazing on my s7 edge👍

With the CC Club the reason you are not allowed before 2 pm is because the roads can be narrow, this allow for the leaving vehicles 🚗 to go so there are less problems.

Stopped over 1 night at that site on our NC500 trip even though they were full warden took pity on us and put us on a car park space in front a little timber camping pod that was vacant for one night . Great views all around. Sure you will enjoy your stay.

Hi Enjoying the videos as always. Did NC500 in May and your videos are inspiring us to have another trip in September up the West coast. Can you please give us a midge report from each site and advise how Smidge is working

Great video as usual. However, I cringe every time I hear you pronounce Sligachan as Sliga-chan with the 'ch' being soft. It's more like Slig-ach-kan with the middle syllable being hard or gutterral as if your are clearing your throat when you say it.
