Why stay here ...
Nestled on the shores of Loch Naver with a direct view of Ben Klibreck, Altnaharra Club Campsite in Lairg is perfect for those wanting to get away from it all - the nearest shops are 20 miles away. Anglers, walkers and birdwatchers will love the unspoilt natural wonders on offer in and around the caravan park.
Families will have more than enough outdoor attractions to make their holiday at Altnaharra Club Campsite memorable. Fly fish for free from the shore; attempt to spot over 70 different species of birds and admire the red deer roaming in the wild. Those staying on site are now have non-motorised boating rights on Lake Naver (conditions apply), ideal for those with small rowing boats and dinghies. Walks range from leisurely ambles across gentle hills such as nearby Ben Loyal, to areas like Munros, where explorations in places like Ben Klibreck and Ben Hope make for a good challenge. Also within easy reach of the caravan site, a visit to Cape Wrath by ferry and minibus to see Scotland's most north westerly point, its spectacular lighthouse and the highest sea cliff on the British mainland at Clo Mor (900 feet) will take your breath away.
Please note: This site does not have a toilet block.

Fantastic views, with a fabulous welcome from Keith & Sue
Altnaharra Club Campsite
We had just one night booked here. What a stunning location. Keith and Sue are fabulous. Keith kindly helped me to my pitch and was happy to help work out how we were going to get it level : we are 8 meters long, before adding the bike rack. He even went and got a bit scaffold board and cut it in two for us to use.
It was so gorgeous, peaceful and Keith was out early tidying up. My husband cycled to the site and then cycled the following day up to Bettyshill.
It was our favourite place on our 13 night tour of the north east coast. We were extremely lucky with the weather. We will definitely be back. Thanks Keith and Sue.

Fabulous
Altnaharra Club Campsite
Very friendly welcome from Keith and Sue, Keith greets and shows each individual the choice of pitch available, ( nice personal touch ) The weather doesn't always behave well, but the whole ambience of the site more than makes up for that.
Lots of wonderful views all around the coast, the drives are long and slow but take it easy and enjoy it, get back to the site and relax. Bettyhill store and cafe serve very good food and coffee, Smoo Caves and Dunrobin Castle are really worth the visit,
again, great freshly made food at Dunrobin is really good and very reasonably priced. We had two lovely weeks here, and would definitely stay again when in the Highlands.

Still a favourite
Altnaharra Club Campsite
We made it back to Altnaharra site after 2 years of lockdowns and what a sense of relaxation from the minute we turned in, we didn’t even have our usual near divorce tuning in the satellite! We love this site although we did notice much more movement with campervans and motor homes using it as a stopover, it was the busiest we have ever seen it which is great for the site but selfishly, I loved the days when there were 2 or 3 vans on the whole site!
The site is maybe not for everyone but we are a family who have been coming to Altnaharra since it was called Grummore, many years ago! Our youngest child is now 14 but still loves the space and the freedom that is on offer. Loch Naver is stunning and we swam or paddled in it most days with the stunning snowy backdrop of Ben Klibreck.
The new wardens are great. Super helpful and friendly, stopping their gardening to open the shop for my son. We were so sad to leave but have already booked for next year and can’t wait to get back!

We just returned from 3 nights at this site and wanted to thank the wardens who went out of their way to be helpful . We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the site with its magnificent views and the remote landscape in the surrounding area.
