It's a small and peaceful place, but you'll find simply stacks to do in the Scottish countryside on and around Loch Ness Bay Camping. The site is only a 15-minute walk through the fields from the western shore of Loch Ness (and famed Urquhart Castle) from this Highlands setting too; a nature reserve is within 10 miles and the lively city of Inverness within 15. Fishing, cruises, golf, swimming, curling, and hikes on the Great Glen Way are all reachable within a short drive. Loch Ness Bay Camping is half a mile from the shops, restaurants and bars of the small village of Drumnadrochit. Its amenities include showers and toilets, a launderette and chemical disposal.

The centre also has a cafe, a shop selling local produce such as whisky and woollens, and ticket sales for Loch Ness cruises, passing Urquhart Castle. More ancient history can be had at the Corrimony Chambered Cairn 10 miles away, the excavated passage grave surrounded by a circle of 11 standing stones; for nature spotting and birdwatching, have a day around the RSPB Corrimony Nature Reserve, also within 10 miles. Golf, swimming, curling, museums, theatres, shopping and nighgtlife all await in Inverness, 15 miles away.
