    Ardmair Point isn’t just by the sea, it’s a peninsula surrounded on three sides by the crystal waters of Ardmair Bay, three miles north of Ullapool on Scotland’s west coast. The site is grassy and well-kept with all the usual facilities and a well-stocked shop; but it’s the location that makes it worth a visit.
    The sheltered bay makes the perfect starting point for exploring the dramatic rocky coastline by kayak or boat. You can fish for mackerel, explore uninhabited islands, or just glide among the otters, porpoises and seabirds that live here in abundance. The campsite has a private pier and mooring for boats and you can launch kayaks from the beach. If you don’t paddle your own canoe, there are local boat trips to take you to see the wildlife or visit Isle Martin, a community-owned natural gem on the edge of the bay.
    After a day on the sea or in the nearby Assynt hills, sit back by the tent and watch the sun turning the cliffs of Ben Mor Coigach gold until it sets late, late in the evening, over the Atlantic horizon.
