Camusdarach is campsite heaven. It really can't get any better than this. It's in between Mallaig and Arisaig, and is backed by beautiful sand dunes and beaches, with plenty of rocks to scramble over, and lovely views. On arrival, we couldn't have been given a warmer welcome by our very genial host, who greeted us like long-lost friends, and we were made to feel at home. We were given a map, which was actually very useful given the size of this spacious site. We then had a look round the facilities. Oh my - luxury, proper luxury! The washing and shower block is something else - decorated to a higher spec than a lot of hotels. It's all grey slate and fancy taps. The shower heads are the large rainforest ones (or whatever they're called), and the shower was a good temperature. The site has every facility that you might need - flat pitches for motor homes, chemical toilet disposal point, grey water disposal point, electric hook ups, laundry, recycling points, free wi-fi, and other facilities such as a shop and cafe. They will even re-freeze freezer blocks for you, or re-charge phones or batteries for you if you aren't on electric hook up. We also noticed that they had a 'glamping pod', and that they take a very environmental approach to their facilities, with eco-friendly and sustainability being a high priority. But the best thing was the chemical toilet disposal point. I'm being serious, it was fantastic. Now this is the part of motor-homing that no-one enjoys. But what they have done here is turned it into a quirky and fun feature. The disposal point is located in an old fashioned style outside toilet cabin. Inside, there is a gigantic stainless steel toilet pan (sparkling clean) for your waste, and they have continued the theme with a ceramic cistern and old fashioned pull chain. They have even kept their touch of luxury going with a slate tiled floor. In having the consideration and creativity to create this eccentric little feature, what they have managed to do is make the most hated job actually good fun. It's a touch of brilliance in what is already a very classy campsite. read more
