› visitapple­cross.com Ardmair Point Holiday Park Ardmair, Ullapool IV26 2TN › www.ardmair.com/caravan.html The Lyles said… “It didn’t take long to reach Ardmair Point Holiday Park. We’ve used this site many times before and it is perfect for Ullapool. We could watch the ‘Loch Seaforth’ ferry sail back and forth between Ullapool and Stornoway.”

Gruinard Bay Campsite Gruinard Bay Caravan Park, Laide IV22 2ND ( pictured above) › www.gruinardba­y.co.uk The Lyles said… “The next day, we went round to the other side of the bay, to stay at Gruinard Bay Caravan Park, in Laide. This was the smallest site we’ve stayed at – small yet perfectly formed! “The owners, Richard and Lorraine, are slowly upgrading the campsite, and the location cannot be improved upon.” Port a Bhaigh Campsite 211 Altandhu, Achiltibui­e, Ross-shire IV26 2YR

the dunes and butting onto the beach aptly known as Big Sands. We had arranged to meet up with two sets of friends here. Each of them had been out on their own journeys and after locating each other, we decided that we would all go out to dinner. The Shieling Restaurant in Gairloch was our venue. And what a wonderful meal we had!”

Scourie Campsite

Scourie IV27 4TE ( pictured above) www.scouriecam­psitesuthe­rland.com The Lyles said… “Scourie has to be one of our favourite campsites. When it came to choosing our pitch, we picked a spot slightly back from the front line to get a little shelter from the wind – still with panoramic sea views. Again, another site that has very good facilities and helpful, friendly staff.” ›

Clachtoll Beach Campsite

› www.clachtollb­eachcampsi­te.com The Lyles said… “To reach Clachtoll Beach Campsite, you are recommende­d to drive to Lochinver, then take the B869 to Clachtoll and not join the B road just after Ullapool. As my map advised us, if you cannot accurately reverse your vehicle several hundred yards on a narrow single-track road, you cannot safely drive over this road.”

Brora C&MC Club Site

Dalchalm, Brora, Highlands KW9 6LP ( pictured above) www.caravanclu­b.co.uk The Lyles said… “We arrived at this Caravan and Motorhome Club site in Brora and carefully crossed the narrow bridge that took us down to the site. Yet again, a great welcome as we were shown to our pitch. A golf course lies between the site and the beach, which you can cross, with care, to gain access to the beach.” ›

Torvean Caravan Park

Glenurquha­rt Road, Inverness IV3 8JL ( pictured above) www.torvean.com The Lyles said… “What a delight this charming little site turned out to be! Torvean is situated right on the banks of the Caledonian Canal, which made for a really lovely walk in the evening with the dogs. “The campsite also has a resident group of very friendly mallards! We would especially recommend this site if you are visiting Inverness.” ›
