No idea about the services for caravans as I've only ever camped there, but it is stunningly beautiful. The only downside is if the weather is bad as the wind blowing up Loch Long gets quite strong on this exposed site.

Nice choice Rupert, passed the site a few days ago on my drive home!

Err, why? Were the Hunters Quay and Dunoon ferries cancelled?

I never take the ferry when going as I enjoy the drive over the mountains - it's such a contrast to sitting on the motorway for six hours!

We go here every year; http://www.hollinsfarmcampsite.co.uk/

Its in the Lake District at a place called Boot. Generally when you go it has a sign on the gate that says "full" they use this to keep the numbers down. They're very Children & pet friendly & the shower/toilet block is always very clean and tidy.
The thing I like best is that a mile or two up the road are "wrynose pass & hardknott pass". Try driving up there without a great big smile on yer face.
There are 3 good pubs within staggering distance all with great food and REAL ALE. If you like trains theres a great "pleasure railway" the ratty.
I don't need to tell you that there are hundreds of great walks nearby.
