Great campsite with basic facilities. Spent one night here with a tent. On arrival was shown around by the owner, who was very helpful. Tent pitches are plentiful, although I can imagine it might be a bit busier at peak tourist/island event periods. Showers and washing facilities are basic but kept very clean. Also an indoor area if the weather isn’t great and there was also a sheltered barn area for keeping bikes and other equipment, if needed. I’d definitely recommend this site and would return again if I came back to Tiree.
Amazing place and host was 11/10. Complementary upgrade to a pod as they didn’t want us putting up a tent in the soaking rain. All the facilities you could want + heating. Great value for money - Thank you very much!
We really loved this camp. The owner William is extremely nice and helpful We didnt have a car and planned to walk to the camp in quite bad weather from the airport, luckily William offered us a ride to the camp what was amazing. We stayed in a nice bothy for 3 nights, it was very comfortable and not expensive at all. It had beds, table, chairs and little terrace where we enjoyed our food. The camp facilities were also great - hot showers, the house with the kitchen and 2 rooms where u can eat your food. If we ever come back to Tiree we would stay here again.
Wonderful campsite with great facilities. Surrounded by beautiful views of Tiree and the nearby beach just a short walk away. Spectacular white sands and blue seas. All the amenities and very clean. Indoor storage for bikes, surf boards etc. The owner is really helpful and has a great surf school and surf shop. I highly recommend both this campsite and their surf school too.
I can't comment on the site itself because we didn't end up staying, but the service we received was very poor and doesn't say much for welcoming tourists to Tiree.nnA word of caution - don't expect great service and be very careful with ferry bookings or you stand to be screwed over by Calmac, Balinoe, or both.nnAs per the Croft Camping Scheme for Tiree, we needed to book a pitch in order to book our CalMac ferry crossing.nSimilarly, as per Balinoe campsite's website, we were also advised to check ferry availability before booking a pitch, which we duly did. The ferry was available, so we happily went ahead and booked a campervan pitch, paying in full because our stay was within a couple of weeks' time.nnWhen we returned to book our ferry with Calmac, the website was down for maintenance, so we called to book by phone and were told, to our dismay, there would be no more space for campervans until some time in August several weeks away... to this day I'm not sure whether this was true or whether we were unlucky and this was simply the worst timing in the world! In any case, I understand this wasn't the campsite's fault so I'll direct that grumble to Calmac.nnWith no ability to get to Tiree, we telephoned the site to cancel our booking. We explained the situation and were told that sorry, but since Calmac do this all the time and the booking is only a couple of weeks away, we would not receive any refund.nnNow, I totally understand booking conditions, but given we'd only just booked, gave prompt notice and explained the situation, we at least expected a little empathy. Instead, we got a rant about Calmac and effectively told 'hard luck.' Still, rules are rules, so we quietly took the hit, feeling gutted that not only had we lost our holiday to Tiree, but we'd paid £57 for the privilege. Thank goodness we'd only booked a couple of nights!nnSkip forward a couple of weeks and we're enjoying an alternative trip to Islay when I get a message fom Balinoe Campsite asking why we hadn't turned up. I reminded him of our telephone cancellation, only to receive an argumentative reply asking why this hadn't been put in an email. The reality was it had, but this had stupidly on our part been sent to the 'no reply' email address. In any case, a verbal cancellation made weeks before the event was more than sufficient. I'm not sure why it mattered anyway when full payment had been retained!nnPut simply, there was a total lack of basic customer service and empathy in this instance. If this is a common occurrence and Calmac cancel ferries a lot, I should think Ballinoe are having a great time dining out on people's payments. They evidently have the campsite monopoly on Tiree and don't care how tourists are affected.nnI should add that I had to cancel a campsite on neighbouring Coll due to the same ferry issue and the owners of Arinagour couldn't have been more helpful or understanding - a little compassion goes a long way.
