Located in the shadow of the Cairngorm mountains, the Lazy Duck campsite (named after the resident Aylesbury ducks) is perfectly located for playing in the hills - or relaxing in one of the site's hammocks at the perfect angle of repose for admiring the nearby peaks. The campsite is tiny so it's essential that you book in advance (and tents accommodating more than three people are not allowed) although the owners also offer the option of staying in a hostel, a cottage and a converted woodman's hut, making it a great choice for groups whose members may not all want to camp.

Local highlight: the Cairngorm mountains, obviously; that said, this is also great whisky country...

It's not Arisaif, it's Arisaig. Does anybody edit or proof read this stuff?

On your way to Cae Du why not stop off at Bishopscastle in Shropshire and camp at the Foxholes campsite on the Montgomery Road.  The views from the site are amazing, the vale of Kerry, Corndon Hill, the Stiperstones and of course the Long Mynd and finally across to Clee hill. The site is realistically priced, superbly equipped with good facilities and an eco responsible approach. Visit the site www dot foxholes-castle dot co dot uk  It's a perfect place to visit all year round!!
