For tenting, only area B seemed to have good pitch spots when I visited. Area A was steep and overgrown. Area C is the beach (not great for inclement weather). There is a little walk to haul your gear from your car to the tent sites. The disabled toilet is open all night and is clean, the main toilets close over night. View of the loch is beautiful
