That looks amazing! Planning on visiting in a couple of weeks. What is the story with wild camping there?

You can camp pretty much where you want, but the only source of fresh water is near the village. Some people camp in the ruins of the old houses but i would have thought them to be full of stones. There is a basic little shop/cafe during the day but not much at night.
