Cleghorn Farm

15 units · Glamping, Tents250 acres · Lanark, Scotland
*PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE ONLY OPEN FOR CABIN BOOKINGS UNTIL NEXT SPRING. THE CABIN IS AVAILABLE FOR MIDWEEK AND WEEKEND BOOKINGS. WE REQUIRE AT LEAST 48 HOURS NOTICE FOR CABIN BOOKINGS* Cleghorn Farm is a mixed farm just north east of the market town of Lanark. Comprised of 250 acres of fields and woodland and bounded to the south by Mouse Water, it is a beautiful spot to get away from it all without having to leave it all behind if you don't want to. The fields are grazed and cultivated but the woodlands are much as they were at the end of the last ice age with spectacular walks along Cleghorn Glen with the chance to see badgers, bats, deer and all manner of birds among the towering pine and beech trees. The Mouse Water (pronounced moose) tumbles down along the edge of the farm and has some glorious pools for swimming, shallows for paddling and some spectacular water falls before it joins the River Clyde.

The Fauld Farm on the Isle of Mull

1 unit · Motorhome, Tent50 acres · Tobermory, Scotland
The Fauld is a small hill farm located close to Tobermory in the north-east of the stunning Isle of Mull in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland. In total, the land comprises around 150 acres - although most of this area tends to be grazed by our Highland ponies and Shetland/Cheviot sheep. In spring and summer, there are wild flowers and birds galore, and bracing fresh air is on tap all year round - as are the spectacular coastal views from the top of the hills. The farm lies within walking distance of the iconic and colourful fishing port of Tobermory, which offers a range of shops, cafes and pubs - as well as being home to the Tobermory Distillery at Ledaig. If you have a car, we can offer off-road parking for a couple of vehicles, and we also have parking space for two campervans (though we do not have water or electricity connections yet). PS: You are advised to come equipped for camping in wet conditions whatever the season - although we promise that the weather can be lovely too! We look forward to welcoming responsible, country-loving campers to The Fauld :-)

Campsites with private bathrooms near Oban guide

Overview

Many pass through the west coast town of Oban on their way to the Inner Hebridean Islands—including Mull and Kerrera—without a second glance. But this seaside town set on a pretty bay merits more of your time. There are castles, gardens and beaches to explore, as well as a whisky distillery in the center of the town and plenty of pubs, cafés and restaurants. The compact town is easy to get around by foot and is linked to Glasgow and Edinburgh by bus. Campers choosing to stay a while have options, too, from well-appointed caravan parks to glamping pods.

Where to go

Around Oban

If you want to experience a rural setting while staying close to town and the shops, pubs and restaurants, Oban Caravan and Camping Park is a great choice. The neat park has sea views from its camping and touring pitches, and also offers camping pods for those who seek a glamping-style experience. Three miles south of the harbor, it’s a convenient location for heading off on ferry trips to the Isles. 

Benderloch

Nine miles north of Oban, on the road to Ballachulish, the little village of Benderloch is close to both Loch Creran and Loch Etive and a good base for watersports such as canoeing, kayaking and fishing. A small and friendly site, Highfield Holidays has hardstanding pitches for touring caravans and motorhomes and grass camping tent pitches, as well as a handful of fully-equipped glamping pods and safari tents with private hot tubs.

Appin

Twenty-five minutes north of Oban, the peaceful Appin peninsula is home to one of Scotland’s most romantic sights, the ruined Castle Stalker perched on a tiny island. The area is popular with cyclists, as well as boaters and windsurfers, and is the departure point for ferries to the island of Lismore. At the foot of the mountains Ben Churlainn and Ben Sgulaird, Creagan Station Tourers offers excellent views from its spacious handstanding touring pitches. Five minutes south, Oban Camping and Caravanning Club Site also offers grass pitches for tents.

When to go

For enjoying long, sunny days in the great outdoors, visiting in spring and summer is best. However Oban gets very busy with holidaymakers making their way to the islands in July and August. September is a good alternative for avoiding the biggest crowds while still being able to enjoy the outdoors. November’s Oban Winter Festival is worth braving the cold.

Know before you go

  • Some sites in the area are seasonal: check opening dates before traveling.
  • There are some good spots for wild camping along the coast. If choosing to camp wild, follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
  • Local bus services can get you around most campsites and places of interest in the area.
  • If traveling between Oban and Glasgow/Edinburgh by bus in summer, it’s a good idea to book in advance.
