Does anyone have any experience of the campsite at Lovat Bridge?

I can only find one review, on uk.rec.walking 4 years ago, and it did
not get a good write-up.

All I am looking for is flat ground and a toilet. Hot water and a
basin would be good. Somewhere to have a beer and something to eat
would be luxury!

The various review websites only seem to have the very basic
information.

I don't know about the Lovat Bridge site, but I do know of a site in
Bunchrew, just outside Inverness, not too far from Beauly.

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/de...asp?revid=3430

It was a couple of years ago when I last stayed there, but as a site
it's fine. Flat pitches, good views over the Beauly Firth.

The Clachnaharry Inn is a great little pub a couple of miles up the road
towards Inverness. Does food too.

I'm a bit biased as I have relatives who live in Bunchrew, but it really
is a gorgeous area.

Unfortunately, the Bunchrew site would be too far to walk. I have a
choice of wild camping, but it looks like farm-land rather than wild
open country, or I could stay at Lovat Bridge.

Hi Judith,

try http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=1039480 for pictures of the
Beauly area. No campsite pictures but it gives you an idea of the area. I've
been driving through it last year, a mixture of farmland and little woods
iirc.
Did you try a Google picture search ?

Hi Theo. It looks like I expected, really. I'll phone the campsite
to make sure they do still take tents. I'm sure it'll be OK, as I'm
not looking for luxury!

>Did you try a Google picture search ?


Yes but only found pictures of the river and Beauly.
