Sorry if this info has been posted before, did a quick search and nothing turned up.
There is a notice on CALMAC's web about restictions on visiting the Western Isles with Motorhome / Campervans.
Notice : -
"Campervans/Motorhomes/Caravans - At the request of Comhairle nan Eilean Siar (Western Isles Council), we have been asked to advise our customers, at time of booking a campervan/motorhome/caravan to any Western Isles destination, that they are required to have a booking with official campsites on the island in advance of travelling. CalMac does not require sight of any pitch booking documentation prior to sailing."
Is this legally enforceable?
I wonder if CALMAC will stop you boarding if you don't have any campsite booking documentation.
I know we have to adapt due to the Covid19 situation, but think this may be the thin end of a very large wedge.
