According to Scotlands People he was baptised 17th June 1747, Reay. His father was Patrick Campbell. Is that the information that you need or are you looking for a marriage/other children?

Patrick appears to have had three children baptised in Reay:
your Robert and:
2 Jan 1750 - James
10 April 1755 - Kathrine
No mothers name given and I can't find a marriage at the moment

Hi Frank
do you have Robert's children's names in birth order - it might help to get a short list of possible mothers?

That's just what I was needing, Frank. Though, interestingly, there is no Patrick or Peter or even Robert.
Normal naming conventions don't seem to apply 
This is a puzzle

What was Robert's wife's name, Frank? And, if you know, who were her parents?

any marriage details circa 1774 - no I don't expect so - I'll go do some checking. If we could find her parents, we might be able to eliminate some of the names
