This site has the potential of being the best in Northern Ireland. The booking is poor as no deposit is taken, so lots of people book it out and don't turn up. The toilet/shower blocks need updating. I love this site but some of the roudy elements are now getting in.

We went with 2 young children and they enjoyed the open space. The maze, cycling and walking kept us busy for a weekend. The Mourne Mountains are within driving reach and the village within walking distance although this is very rowdy in the evenings. The toilets are clean but the pitches are uneaven and some need a little TLC. Creating your own entertainment is all part of the family fun on this site.

De camping ligt niet aan de A50, maar in Castlewellan, daar bordjes "Forest Park" volgen.
Verder geen nadere toelichting nodig.
