Anyone who is into wild camping on Mull will have heard that Calgary is one of the places it is allowed. I am so glad we didn't rely on this and having read some reports on the place, opted not to use the place.
We went to have a look at the place on our last day, just out of interest and because we were "doing" the coastal bits of Mull we hadn't yet visited.
OK, the white sand beach is lovely, although I think there are better on Mull. The camping area was very small and absolutely packed out. I doubt if there was a foot between encampments and you'd certainly hear whatever anyone in the next tent was up to!!! Most definitely not our scene and we shuddered at such a sight. Why would you want to do it when there are far quieter places? I guess some people just like living on top of each other but then why come to a beautiful place like Mull?
