Glenbrittle Campsite My wife and I stayed here for the first 2 weeks July 2009 and I must say its one of the best location we have been to after 50 years of caravanning, it was the first time we had been to Skye and to wake up in the morning to the veiw of the Cuilins was unbeleivable, the two guys that run the site are very helpfull and spend a lot of time making sure that the site is tidy and that the toilets and showers are clean, Ive read reports saying that the showers were always busy well I can say that using the showers every day their was only 2 days that I had to wait to get in, we are going back this year at the beginning of June, just hope the weather is as good,by the way we didnt think the Midges were that bad but the Clegs were.

Glenbrittle Campsite Glenbrittle just gets better every year.Just back from over two weeks stay-revived,refreshed and suntanned-not many midges this year. Alex,Kenny and Christine still doing a wonderful job making everyone feel very welcome. There is always something new for us "old timers" to find out about - Chris found some new runs and new routes on his favourite Cuillins.Good to be able to share our favourite place with new friends John and Ali whom we met at Glenbrittle this year. Roll on next year -we'll be back!!!! Type of accommodation: Tent Date: 28/07/2009 Was this review helpful for you? 2 of 3 found this review to be helpful.

Glenbrittle Campsite - one of the five best ever seen ...I will return in May - for my yearly hiking and relaxing weeks without family. This is the best campsite in Scotland I have seen. You walk from your tent in a few hours on the next munros and / or on the seaside and 7 or take a relaxing day at the beach. - there are people swimming.... - me not, brrr - The nature is extremly fantastic, unbelievable and undiscrible. The facilities are basic but fine and clean - just the shower was extremely hot last year - but better then too cold :-). The shop is extraordinary good, Portree (nice town with coop, news, fish & chips etc is about 30 min of driving, in school holidays there is a bus.) All other Skye attractions are within 1hour driving. And - the best - there is no mobile-phone-net working in the valley ! Telephon box at campsite or - to get called from the continent - at Glenbrittle house 10 min of fine walk. I would be there much more often, but for me it is 1800 km-trip from Cologne Type of accommodation: Camper Date: 12/04/2009 Was this review helpful for you? 11 of 11 found this review to be helpful.

Glenbrittle Campsite I've stayed at Glenbrittle pretty much every year for the last 15 and I would recommend it to anyone-in actual fact I do wax lyrical about at every given oppourtunity!!.Yes,the showers are a little basic but they do the job and the stunning location and scenery make up for that.Not much for the kids but we've always had a great time.Weather can be a bummer but if you've invested in a decent tent you should be fine as the wind dries it off pretty quickly.I've seen lots of staff come and go and thy are always happy and friendly,I would be too if I was waking up to that view every day!.Put it on your list of things to do before you die!.

Glenbrittle Campsite Chris and I have just returned after three wonderful weeks at Glenbrittle. It never ceases to amaze me how wonderful a setting this is - even after over twenty years holidaying here. Alex and Kenny work remarkably hard to maintain the clean standards in the toilet blocks, collecting rubbish, and cutting the grass. They are so welcoming, and knowledgeable about the walks and the island. It is the most relaxing place ever to go on a holiday,excellent running and walking for Chris, and extremely scenic place for knitting and walking on the beach. Thanks for a wonderful holiday invigorated now until next year. Type of accommodation: Tent Date: 15/08/2008 Was this review helpful for you? 5 of 5 found this review to be helpful.

Glenbrittle Campsite Just returned from this campsite which is situated at the foot of the Black Cuillins and which is an excellent site for serious walkers. There is a pleasant beach to walk along for those who aren't "into" walking/climbing the Cuillins. The grassy pitches are spacious if a bit exposed in the strong winds we encountered when trying to pitch our tent, which was probably a bit bigger than the average tent there. The facilities are excellent with lots of hot water for showers and washing clothes/dishes. I could have done with a bit more space for drying off in the shower cubicle with a bench or seat to put my stuff or sit on, but leaning on the wall instead was O.K. as the shower itself was one of the best I've encountered for a long time. I can recommend this site particularly to energetic, keen walkers - or if you are like me, to just sit and relax and read a book whilst enjoying the beautiful hills around three sides.
