Situated in a Highland village of Contin , Strathpeffer  in the heart of Scotland  ideally situated for Loch Ness ,the Cairngorms and Isle of Skye. We are conveniently situated on the North Coast 500 ( NC500).
 
We restrict who is on the site by keeping our gates closed and 
we feel this offers security and peace of mind for our guests. Please note we are not allowing dogs this year.
 
This is really a special place with our site situated next to the
river Blackwater and some of the Munro mountains almost on
the doorstep,with great fishing , hiking and mountain biking in
close proximity . Everyone is drawn to the river here , not only
to watch our local Heron who loves to fish on our stretch of the
river but also to enjoy paddling and even swimming .We have
also had a visit from an otter and this has been spotted by a few
of our campers already.

Also, In the sky you will almost inevitably see the majestic Red
Kites soaring above you with their distinctive markings . A wild cat
has also been tagged and released by a Nature group.
 
There are good mountain bike trails starting just over the road
from the campsite. The famous Strathpuffer 24 hour mountain bike
event takes place every January 
 
Our campsite is in the highland village of Contin next to the local store, and about 18 miles from Inverness
and Loch Ness.There are regular buses to the village from
Inverness and with a  bus stop just outside the site for those of
you that do not have a car or want to leave their car behind
 
We have a variety of accommodation options for your perfect
Scottish Highlands holiday with our 3 simple Holiday options Glamping, Camping, Caravaning.
 
 
The Riverside

The holiday park is adjacent to the well stocked local grocery shop.
The village also has a garage.
Restaurants are available in Strathpeffer , but there is excellent restaurant at the Coul House Hotel , and also a fish and chip shop in the village.
We will be happy to provide more details on arrival.
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 This is a prefect location for hiking, biking, fishing and climbing, or
relaxing by the River .
