About The Croft Certificated Location
Trundling along the North Coast 500 and fancy a handsome spot to pause? The Croft Certificated Location – open to Caravan and Motorhome Club members only – offers sea views over the Moray Firth, friendly owners and a pub serving food within half an hour's walk. The small, peaceful site sits just two miles off the NC500 route, with large level hardstanding pitches (six by ten metres, plus a grassy awning area) and metered electric hook-ups.
Being on the east coast means stunning scenery and fewer midges than the west. Dolphins, seals and deer are regularly spotted from your pitch; with luck, you might glimpse orcas or the Northern Lights in winter. You'll need to be self-contained – there are no showers or toilets – but the utility area covers fresh water, waste disposal and recycling. The John o'Groats Trail runs right past the site, ideal for dog walks, while a short drive takes you to a pebble beach for kayaking or simply soaking up the wild Highland coastline.

What visitors say
Great level 5 pitch stopover just 5 miles from Wick for £25. No showers or toilet facilities but it has everything else required for a motorhome. Adjacent field was a smallholding and plenty to watch with the chickens, guinea fowls, goats and pigs. Had a very pleasant talk with owner David and would highly recommend this site.

Great little stop over if you’re happy with no facilities (toilet or showers) which is clearly communicated when booking. Owners are friendly, location is convenient and nice views. Chemical waste disposal and bins onsite. Pitches are large and spaced well apart, i think approx 5 in total and we were one of 2 there so was nice and quiet. Chicken and livestock directly in-front of pitch were nice to see and not particularly noisy thank goodness :) would stay again. Thanks

Wow! What A Find... A Beautifully Located Small Site With EHU, Fresh Water, Waste Disposal, Amazing Views & Great Walks Down Into The Cove! The Owners Were Extremely Helpful & Kind! They Even Sent Us On Our Way With Freshly Laid Eggs The Next Morning - How Lucky Were We! Lots Of Animals Too! They Do Not Have Showers/Toilets But If You Have Your Own Facilities Like We Did This Was Not A Problem At All! Brilliant Add On To Our NC500 Adventure! Thanks Guys!

WOW! What a fantastic little find for a semi wild overnight camp in our motorhome. Electric hook up and grey waste empty facility. No showers or loos but the views and the animals make up for that!! Dave and his partner who own it were so nice, even giving us a box of fresh eggs from their hens on leaving. Worth much more than the £25 we paid for the nights hook up. Will definitely be back. Donna and Derek
