I can only assume it got much busier later in the summer. We noticed the articles about&#39;massive motorhomes&#39; around Jan this year in the Western Isles Press. (not sure the locals would be so happy to lose all the tourism, even if it could get a bit busy by Western isles standards)We had a laugh at the number of folk making the early morning dash to the public loo.... on their bikes or in their cars. Glad we took the portapoti. <img src="http://singletrackworld.com/forum/my-plugins/bbcode-buttons/default/icon_biggrin.gif" title=":D" class="bb_smilies" alt=""/> </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/show-us-your-campers/page/4#post-1787664 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 17:12:02 +0000 epicsteve 1787664@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Here&#39;s my Barra airport shot:<br /> <img src="http://www.pbase.com/niblue/image/115437611/original.jpg"></p> <p>We were there in 2009 didn&#39;t see any particular signs of &quot;folks turning up in massive motorhomes for a fortnight and damaging the machair&quot;.<br /> Nearly everyone appeared to be doing what we did and moving every few days. I read that there were issues with people dumping waste etc. but didn&#39;t see any signs of that either. One advantage of the vans like mine is that their tanks are big enough to go several days without needed to dump waste, and there are facilities for that dotted about the western isles including at most of the ferry terminals. There is a place just along the road from the airport in fact (at the little harbour) but it&#39;s not that well signposted so I don&#39;t think everyone knew about it. There might have been issues with people without on-board facilities (as the toilet in the airport isn&#39;t accessible much of the time) having to use the shrubbery but again I didn&#39;t see anything like that myself.</p> <p>There are limited camping spots on Barra other than at the airport so it seemed a little crowded (by Western Isles standards although probably not by anyone elses!) but once away from there it was still very quiet. Other than at the campsites in Lewis and on Benbecula I don&#39;t think we ever camped near anyone else. </p>
