We happened upon a wee gem of a campsite here called Croft 2 Campsie the website takes you to the cottage accomodation so I don’t think you can book online. There is however a campsite almost right next door – Scurrival Campsite which you arrive at first and where the bulk of the people camping in the area stop. If you want to drive another couple of hundred meters you will find the one we stayed at which is a little more quite.
