Aye XK, need to make your own bookings for this one. Hence why I bumped it for confirmation on the last site. Can't leave it too late to get a pitch that time of year.
I've asked Sandi to update the events page, to avoid confusion - i'm sure it'll be done as soon as possible. That's why I put full details on this thread until it's altered. If any confusion is caused in the mean time, my apologises.
Ignore the post below - just seen Minnie The Minx's separate thread on the same topic.
See what happens when you have been away from the site for a while!!
Just a tip for anyone camping in Ballachulish... from my experience of years of camping in the area when mountaineering (in my yoof) I would suggest you take some midge repellent.
I used to use Deet which while working quite well, also smells quite strong, stings your eyes and eats your clothing but have found that Avon's Skin So Soft is actually much more user friendly and very effective! It is used by the Forestry workers and I noted that when I popped into the village store in Ballachulish last year that they had bottles of the stuff for sale behind the counter.
Thanks for the thought TeeCee - Skin so Soft mixed with a little Patuli oil is great as well. Nice to see you back

well i'll certainly do the 1st 2 campsites....already booked Glen Nevis and love Ullapool but think i might pass on the 3rd and head for Skye for a few days.
Just spent the weekend in Lochgilphead camping....hope the weather is as good in July but feck the midges.......... im still itchy! urghhhh! Might have to buy a bucket load of the avon stuff.
As Fort William and Glencoe are so close, why bother with FW as it's £13 a night, compared to G at £9 a night?
And has camping at the Stratharon Hotel def been kicked into touch?
Hi there Kwakgirl & Xklyber - Paneurojim will be back this weekend, he'll be in touch regarding the campsites. All the best.

Dont mind what's arranged Bobkat just dont fancy Glencoe - stayed there before and not impressed at all. ...so quite happy enough to go off for the last few days and do my own thing
Anyone left south of the M4 still thinking about the long trek North & wanting a riding buddy let me know as i'm thinking about this one. Was thinking about doing it in two legs as i hate m'ways.
Poshy thank you for that

Lionfish - I am taking my time going up off motorways. I booked Applecross but appears I must now cancel it so will start afresh tomorrow. I assume it's the list a couple of pages back (and no 2 doesn't need to be booked - I did phone them before I went away and they did confirm no booking required) Sorry - been away at TT and have returned to find 3 - 4 extra pages of change/discussion Lol!!
