An amazing site. The perfect location to use as a base for climbing and walking alike. Has all the amenities and is perfectly run. Staff are amazing. Family oriented. The wonderful Clachaig Inn is a short walk that is a must if you are in the area. Harry Potter fans will love this ;). A perfect location.

Awesome Campsite offering that Off Grid Experience. Amenities are clean and site allows fire pits which is major plus. Lots to do in the area, from hiking to visiting the visiting the site of Hagrid’s Hut from Harry Potter. Hotel/Bar from some refreshments if needed 😜.

We have stayed at the Red Squirrel a few times with our Tentbox. The location is perfect, walking distance to the local pub for food and drinks and walking distance to the village. Facilities at the site are fine, toilets and showers are clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. Looking forward to many more visits.

We spent a night here in January and absolutely loved it and the fact you can have your own wee fire pit going, will definitely be returning.
