About Shieldaig Camping & Cabins
Shieldaig is one of the prettiest villages on the NC500 — a single row of white-painted houses facing a small island in Loch Torridon, with spectacular mountain scenery on all sides. The campsite above the village has expansive views across the loch and is a wonderful base for exploring the Torridon mountains and the Applecross Peninsula. The village has a small general store and the Tigh an Eilean hotel with an acclaimed restaurant. Walking, wildlife watching (sea eagles breed nearby) and kayaking are popular activities.

🚐 Motorhome Tip
Ask at the village shop about sea eagle locations — the local RSPB knows where they're nesting. The hotel restaurant is excellent but pricey — book ahead. The road north from Shieldaig to Torridon is one of the most beautiful drives on the entire route.
