(IV51 9HX) Skye - A855

Great place. Lots of buses make stops for pictures. Hikers come back and move cars till 8 pm. Afterwards quiet till about 7 am . Goff 4G signal

Beautiful place with a view of the storr! Nice and quiet place right next to the road. Much water on the parking.

Great views, space for about 4 campers + 1 or 2 cars. Have 4G and service! You need to be here on time though if you want to have a spot (around19:00/19:30)

Bonjour, on peut y stationner sans problème.

Emplacement un peu en contre bas de la route. Belle vue sur Old man of storr. Un peu de passage mais correct pour y passer la nuit.

Just a lay-by, unfortunately our visit to Skye was with poor weather so no visibility of anything. phone reception alright

Best view of Old Man of Storr on the whole island (and lovely loch on the other side too)! There were at least 8 camper vans when we were there but only about 4 fit on the flat section. Lots of midges around even in May (hardly met any others elsewhere).

Super emplacement. Il y avait 10 vans et camping-cars. Attention, prévoir de la crème contre les midges à cause de la proximité avec le lac !

En contrebas de la route mais assez calme. A 25 mn à pieds de la randonnée Old Man Stor.

Beautiful spot with amazing views. Stayed here before a morning hike of the Storr.

idéalement placé pour old man of stor calme après 21h place pour 3 ou 4

Bonne emplacement juste avant le parking pour la randonnée du Storr. Un peu de passage sur la route mais ce parking est gratuit avec un belle vue ! Il y a aussi de la 4G pour les instagrameur ! ?

Il migliore dei tre parcheggi segnati perché arretrato rispetto alla strada. Spazio per 4 camper/van. Vista mozzafiato sul Loch e sull’Old Man of Storr. Abbiamo un van molto isolato quindi il traffico non mi ha disturbato, comunque di notte non è passato praticamente nessuno.

Nice view, quiet at night and very close to Old Man Of Storr!

Pas exceptionnel mais très bien pour la nuit, permet d’être juste à côté du parking du départ de la randonnée de old man of storr. On était 5 campers. Peu de passage la nuit.

Small lay-by. 3-4 parking spots - line up the vehicles. Off the main road a little. Be careful of vehicles driving through (some at speed to stop). Police drove through for a minute late at night before heading to the town. Noise ok- exposed area if it’s windy. It was a good spot if you don’t want to park up at the viewpoint.

Vu l'endroit, très bon endroit pour la nuit, la route n'est pas beaucoup emprunté de nuit donc assez calme. Et pas loin du Old Man of Storr

Wir hatten eine tolle Nacht hier vor unserer Wanderung zu Old man of Storr. Der Verkehrslärm war in der Nacht kein Problem. Es kamen nur wenige Autos vorbei. Außerdem steht man ein paar Meter von der Straße weg, sodass man etwas geschützter ist.

Guter Platz für eine Nacht mit direkter Nähe und sogar Blick zum Old Man of Storr. Nur 1-2 Plätze sind einigermaßen eben, danach wird’s sehr schief. Bei viel Regen bildet sich auch eine riesen Pfütze in der Senke. Für einen frühen Wanderstart würde ich ihn dennoch wieder ansteuern.

Parfait pour une nuit, légèrement en pente

Great location. Great sleep. Traffic obviously.

Tagsüber viel los aber kostenlos. Nachts ist es sehr ruhig. Man steht zwar schief aber dafür mit Blick auf den old man of storr.

Noche perfecta y trankila. Unos 5 o 6 vehículos. Cerca del old man of storr, aprox 1 km al parking. Recomendable. Importante: en el parking del old man of storr, al lado wc, hay para cargar agua y limpiar poty gratis.

Noche muy tranquila a un kilómetro del parking oficial de Old Man Storr. Algunas de las plazas están niveladas (las del medio).

Stayed for one night before waking old man of storr. Busy road until 10pm and traffic starts again around 6am, locals like to sound the horn when passing. When we stayed was 4 vans and car with tent, area was crowded. Only park on hard standing areas. Someone has been stuck and made a mess of the grass which gives campers a bad name.

Une super vue, du trafic le soir et le matin mais nickel pour passer une bonne nuit au calme. Assez venteux mais rien d’insurmontable. Places pour 5/6 vans.

It’s quiet at night, but traffic builds up as early as 6am. It’s possible to barbecue there, I’ve asked the man of the highland council who patrols the parking spots along the A855. He is very friendly and gladly entertains wit the people camping.

Stayed here for one night before hiking Storr. Convenient location, but when we stayed it was very windy all night. Also throughout the evening and morning buses of people were arriving to take photos so not much peace.

Eine kleine Böschung trennt den Parkplatz von der Straße. Straße in der Nacht wenig befahren. Sehr schöne Aussicht. Guter Startpunkt für Wanderungen zum Old Man of Storr (aber entlang der Straße bis zum Parkplatz). Platz für mehrere Fahrzeuge. Entsorgung der Toilette gibt es am nördlich gegelgenen offiziellen Parkplatz.

This was the best spot of the 3 P4N along this stretch of road as it was slightly off the busy road. Spent night with 5 other units. Bit windy and many vehicles passing from 7am. Further along northwards (1.5 miles) you could empty cassettes, drop rubbish and fill water cans for free. To fill tanks you need 15/20m hose and park outside the tap location, which could be difficult if cars there.

Stopped here on two consecutive nights. Arrived around 4pm and was the only Motorhome however on both nights other motorhomes and vans joined. Four vehicles stretched the length of the lay-by seems like an ideal safe number. There was a bit of traffic noise which went out till well into dark. Good views across the Loch and up towards the old man of storr.

Magnifique vue. Nous avons pu avoir la dernière place en arrivant à 18h30 (max 5 places), terrain plat. Bordure de route donc un peu de passage dans la nuit.

Parking prisé mais plat avec de la place pour 5/6 véhicules, jolie vue. Quelques buissons de l'autre côté de la route. entourée de mouton, très agréable réveil. Calme Parfait pour être tôt au parking de Storr et ainsi avoir une place pour le van (peu de place pour van/campingcar à Storr attention)

Perfect place for a night sleep! Fantastic views over the Old Man! Also some sheep and a little lake on the other side. Barely any traffic after 9pm. So I would definitely recommend to stay here!

Great view and about 20 minute walk to the Storr Trail. Great to stay a night, but it was a bit windy

Très belle vue mais alors beaucoup de vent. Nous étions tellement secoués qu’impossible de dormir de la nuit. Mais bien pratique quand les autres parkings sont pris! Pas de problème de bruit de route!

Wollten ursprünglich auf dem Parkplatz vom Old Man of Storr übernachten, ist jedoch nicht mehr möglich. Blieben somit hier für eine Nacht. Direkt am Wasser, sehr schöne Aussicht. Abends noch viel Verkehr, nachts wurde es weniger. Toiletten sind tagsüber am Old Man of Storr verfügbar.

Great spot to park up overnight. Had a good nights sleep here.

Great spot, closest free parking to Storr and with a half decent track running down the side of the road. Very little traffic!

Good amount of space. Lots of midgies!

Super um eine kleine Pause vor dem Old man of Storr zu machen oder eine Wanderung zu starten. Übernachtet haben wir hier nicht. Unser WoMo misst 8 x 3m.

Went there during a rainy day but nice view anyway. Busy road until 21pm, quiet during the night. Perfect spot for 3-4 motorhomes or 5-6 vans.

Llegamos al anochecer y pasamos la noche para subir bien temprano la mítica Old Man of Storr. Lugar tranquilo y buenas vistas con un bonito amanecer.

Abbiamo passato una notte tranquilla, con una vista molto bella e pochi midges. Perfetto per partire presto per il trekking all’old man of storr

Often too many vehicles parked here and not maintaining a safe (4M) distance apart. May be moved on if too tightly parked here.

Posto carino sulla strada, perfetto per la gita all’old man of storr. Vale in ogni luogo, ma in particolare per gli spot così piccoli, tutti facciamo la cacca, ma non andrebbe lasciata in natura, fa schifo e non è sano per l’ambiente, a maggior ragione con tanto di salviette. Si può scavare una buca (non qui, troppo vicino ad un ruscello) o portarla via con un sacchetto, i cestini sono a 30 metri.

Vue magnifique sur le Old Man of Storr et le lac. La route est très peu fréquentée le soir donc la nuit est calme. Très venteux

Une superbe vue. De la place pour 4 vans. Par contre aucun endroit pour aller aux toilettes de manière discrète.

Guter Parkplatz etwas abseits der Straße. Schöne Aussicht. Gute Alternative, da in Portree keine Übernachtungsmöglichkeiten in ausreichender Menge vorhanden sind.

Great lay-by set off the road with views over the loch, even had a Sea Eagle fly along length of pull in at eye level. Busy road during the day but goes quiet about 9pm and comes alive again about 7am so good nights sleep guaranteed. Pity there were no bins but other than that it was great.

the best place we've been in. view is amazing, abit more away from the road so more quiet. very close to the hike

Rustige plek in de nacht maar verkeer komt redelijk vroeg op gang en maakt veel herrie. Er kunnen 4 campers staan mits goed geparkeerd, dus hou daar rekening mee.

Stunning views from Storr and the lake, a bit too close to the road but no one passing from 21-6h. A bit windy at times but ok inside the camper. Perfect for spending the night before the Storr hike (we were the first starting at 7.30am). No facilities.

Nice spot with a view, can be windy. The street is close but that did not bother us since there was basically no traffic at night and its a side road next to the main road. We were alone at the spot which was great. No toilets or other facilities. however, only a couple of minutes away from Old Man of Storr, where we drove the next early morning.

Le bord du lac sert surtout de WC. On est pas resté malgré la vue !

Decent sized lay by could fit multiple vans along here, not from the Storr at all. No facilities. Be aware its not very well protected from wind, stayed here last night and it was so windy was shaking the vehicle!

Stayed here 2 of 4 nights on skye. 5 min drive to waste disposal @ the storr & itself. bit far to walk from here. also 10 mins from portree. managed to get 6 campers in on our second stay!

Great view, but quite close to road. No phone signal. Space for about 3-4

Good overnight stop. No signal so have something downloaded.

Very nice view and very close to the car park in the Old man of Storr. abit quiet at night just be careful with the midgets. Just no phone coverage.

Great location if you want to start the nearest walking path first thing in the morning. Route is not very busy at night but we had two passing drivers using the horn. Good for one night.

Good spot. stayed one night 9/6 quiet enough to get some sleep. one other motorhome could accommodate another 4. short walk to the old man car park which now has waste disposal. I would use this spot again.

Quiet lay-by with minimal road traffic overnight, only us and 1 other van May 2021. No facilities but there is a new toilet block that was open at the old man of Storr car park only 2 minutes drive down the road.

Good stop for the night. Not much traffic. Nice views. Reasonably level if you choose the right place to park.

Reasonably flat. Room for 4-5 campers. Make sure you park close to the one in front so everyone can squeeze in as it filled up while we were there.

Not the most level layby so you may need to adjust your position. Arrived last night in pouring rain but woke this morning to glorious sunshine and views of Loch Leathen. Road noise not intrusive but we did not have windows open

Le rêve ??. Nous y étions seuls. Réseau 4G. Vue splendide. Je recommande chaudement !
