Google's listing for this site is currently flagged as closed temporarily. This isn't always accurate — please confirm directly with the site before travelling.

Tent and motorhome campsite on Orkney's Hoy island, with showers and views across open moorland.

About Hillside Tiny Campsite

Hillside Tiny Campsite sits on Hoy, one of Orkney's larger islands, surrounded by the rolling moorland and dramatic landscape that characterises this part of the archipelago. The site takes tents and motorhomes on separate pitches, with showers available to all guests. Its position on the island means you're a short distance from Longhope, the nearest settlement.

This is a working landscape of farms and open land rather than a manicured grounds experience. The moorland setting draws people who want to walk, explore Orkney's archaeology and geology, or simply experience the quietness of island life well away from the mainland.

This was a great place to spend the night in the van. A missed call to Sue, the owner with an immediate return. It was her house with a large garden with super out building that can be used. She only does it 4 weeks a year amd we managed to get in on the last night.

Awesome wee campsite with super friendly owners! Sue and Andy were lovely and really knowledgeable about the area. Common room was very handy and facilities were very clean. Note - no shower
