Camping near Edinburgh with space for 2 tents – looking for recommendations
Hi everyone,
My friends and I are planning a trip to Scotland from **August 13th to August 23rd**, and we're currently looking for a **camping spot for 4 people with 2 medium/big tents (5 meters by 4 meters)**.
We're running into a bit of a problem:
Most campsites we find either **don’t allow two tents on one pitch** or they’re **already fully booked for August**. So we thought it might be worth asking here in case locals or experienced travelers know some good spots.
**What we're looking for:**
* Space for **2 tents (5 meters by 4 meters) (4 people total)**
* **Electricity hookup**
* **Basic facilities** like **toilets and showers**
**Location preferences:**
* Within about **1–1.5 hours driving distance from Edinburgh**
* Ideally **close to good hiking/walking trails (within \~30 minutes)**
**Trip plan (roughly):**
* 2 days visiting **Edinburgh**
* 1 day trip to **Fort William**
* 3 days of hiking/walking in nature
* 2 chill/rest days
* 1 day for setting up and packing down camp
So the goal is a **nice basecamp location** where we can explore the area without moving the tents every couple of days.
If anyone knows:
* a **campground that allows two tents on one pitch**, or
* a **lesser-known campsite that still has availability in August**,
we’d really appreciate the recommendation.
And if someone happens to have a **huge Scottish estate, castle grounds, or suspiciously large backyard** where four friendly campers could quietly exist for 10 days… we promise to bring snacks and not attempt to claim the land in the name of a new kingdom.
Thanks in advance for any tips 🙂
