22/09/20 – Covid 19 Update
Please note that we strongly advise booking with Caledonian MacBrayne, before booking with us. Our ferry operator is currently operating at a substantially lower capacity than normal. Tickets will be very hard to get to travel to Tiree at peak times.
Our (hot) showers & toilet facilities are available for use but our main facilities block (kitchen area) will remain closed until it is clear that we can reopen this. This means that access to cooking facilities, fridges and freezers, sink and indoor communal areas will not be offered just yet. Please bear with us until it is clear that we can reopen these facilities. Electric hook up, cold tap water, Wi fi and chemical waste disposal will be available. We only have 10 hook up points so we expect available pitches to book up quickly: https://tireecampsite.co.uk/camp-on-tiree
Please ensure you are as self contained as possible if you plan to visit (Ability to do your own washing up and to cook (self contained) or bring proper camping food/eat out, is the current status quo). Travel insurance is advisable to have in place for any holiday or break but we strongly advise all travellers to have holiday insurance in place at this time.
Please respect the local community, many of whom are still very nervous about welcoming visitors back. Do not approach people on a close and personal basis and avoid contact at this time where possible. Masks are essential in shops and public facilities.
We accept camper vans, caravans & tents. It is possible to bring large motorhomes/caravans to our site. Our campsite has no staff on site on a permanent basis. We only staff our site for two hours after the ferry arrival time each day and accordingly we would ask campers to make their way to us immediately on arrival so that we can arrange pitching and introduce campers to the range of facilities. If travelling to Tiree by another method, or if you are already on holiday on the island before arrival with us, please contact us if the timings mentioned above do not work for any reason.

Since opening in 2007, we have worked hard every season to develop our range of facilities on site as well as to develop further natural screening from the elements for our guests.
Current facilities include, pitches, pods, and a bothy as well as an indoor facilities block and toilet & shower cubicles. – Balinoe Campsite is open from the 1st April until 31st October, each year.
