A quick story about the campsite!
Since 1914, the grounds that are apart of Red Squirrel Campsite have been used for camping. For well over a century campers have been coming to visit the highlands to experience nature at its finest! Red Squirrel campsite was founded by Hugh MacColl and has been thriving ever since.
There is no WiFi in the forest, but I promise that you’ll find a better connection.
Our Philosophy is that we spend far too much time with technology and working and as a result, we have lost something core to being a human. We want to give you the opportunity to leave that all behind and return to our natural state, back with mother nature.

Happy Campers
Escape the city and return back to nature just as many of our campers have!
Great Campsite!
What a location - alongside a stream and surrounded by mountains! There's plenty of space to pick a spot - alongside the stream, amidst tree cover and there are plentiful prepared fire-circles, with wood available for a campfire. The facilities are simple - loo's, hot showers, washing up station, visitor info - but plenty for a good camp. The manager is friendly and helpful. Good pub food about a mile down the road at the Clacaigh Inn.
We love this campsite!
Outstanding scenery! Great staff, clean toilets and low prices. There's a shallow river that runs by the campsite, which was an absolute pleasure to wake up to. Plus there's a nearby co-op for any new campers who forget anything.
Lovely Campsite!
Fantastic campsite with great amenities for the tent or motor home camper. The settings are stunning and the prices reasonable. Fires permitted on old fire scars. Hammock friendly.

Wild Camping!
Wild camping feel with the comfort of showers and toilets. Beautiful location and the scenery is amazing. Fires are permitted and if you are brave enough, you can swim in the river. Reasonably priced too.
