Oh yea. I was in those parts in '03, and entered into a discussion with the Glenelg Inn. Tho' if you're planning on staying there you may need to have Serious Money - Click here if you have access to a Trust Fund It's a mighty gaff, and I enjoyed it hugely.

For the price of a - perfectly reasonable - bar meal they were happy for me to
make my way to a pitch at the furthermost recesses of their land - great view over to Skye. It worked out very well. Glenelg is a mighty start point!

When I started at Glenelg (in 2009, I think it was ... in fact, yes, I'm pretty sure it must have been) I worked on the assumption that the ruined barracks would probably offer some good pitches ... flat, with a bit of woind protection, and presumably reasonably well-drained because they didn't discover Trench Foot until WWI.

When I got there, however, having walked from Kyle of Lochalsh across the bridge and down to Kylerhea in steady West Coast rain, and crossed the narrows on the wee turntable ferry, I conveived this irrational desire to start my crossing with a thumping great hangover, and so booked myself a room at the inn to facilitate the process ... so I cannot actually coment on the soundness or otherwise of my previous thinking. (I wouldn't recommend the hangover, however ... )

Thanks for the advice.
I did consider the Hotel but had the same problem as Hmp3!
