All campers are welcome on a first come and space available basis as space is limited.

To camp during the Loch Norman Highland Games and Scottish Festival you must have a two day ticket per person which can be purchased at this link.

We only offer Two-Night Camping Reservations and do not offer single night stays. Two-night reservations are for Friday (4/19/24) and Saturday Night (4/20/24) only. Additional tickets may be purchased to stay Tuesday (4/16/24), Wednesday (4/17/24), Thursday (4/18/24) night and/or Sunday (4/21/24) night in addition to the two night camping pass that is required; dates cannot be staggered – example: you cannot purchase Wednesday and then pack up and come back Friday.

The Loch Norman Highland Games is a family friendly event and for this reason inappropriate behavior on the part of anyone in attendance will not be tolerated and could result in being removed from the camping area by Historic Rural Hill staff and/or local law enforcement without refund or fees.

Camping spaces are not laid out and are approximate. A 15×15 space cannot always be square based the geography of the spot you choose. Please stay within the size limits set out for the ticket you purchase. Please be cautious to your camping neighbors.
