Liked: Erm…. Nothing
Disliked: Utterly devastated when we arrived. In what is one of the most beautiful areas of Northern Ireland, this site has so much potential, but unfortunately the reality could not have been further from this. The owner is also passive aggressive as you can see by reading some of the replies to other negative reviews. The site is unkept, run down and felt like I was camping in a scrap yard. Honestly, avoid at all costs!

From the manager: This review is linked to the review beside it there were no cross words exchanged but both lots didn't want to put leads on their dogs or keep them away from other tents owners close to them, their dogs were aggressive to other campers and they were told four times to keep them under control, they even included two pictures of temporary bins which were left for them so that they didn't have to walk too far as we had only opened for the season and the bin company had mistakenly brought only two large commercial bins, they were made aware of this.
Regards the friendly campsite owner John.

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Location and potential
Disliked: After over 25 years of camping across various sites, from remote wild spots to fully serviced holiday parks, I can confidently say this campsite ranks among the most disappointing I’ve ever stayed at — not necessarily because of the location or layout, but due to how clearly unfinished, neglected and poorly kept the facilities are. What makes this experience even more frustrating is the obvious potential this site has.
The campsite feels like a project in two halves: one part that time seems to have forgotten, and another in various stages of incomplete renovation. And judging by reviews spanning several years, not much has changed. The pitches themselves are poorly maintained — uneven ground, insufficient drainage, and a general sense of being unkempt.
In its current state, I cannot recommend this campsite. The facilities are well below par and the pricing doesn’t reflect the condition of what’s on offer. Rather than a relaxing stay, the overall experience felt frustrating and disappointing.
The toilet and shower blocks are a particular letdown — very old, dishevelled and simply unappealing to use. Fixtures are dated and in some cases, broken. The overall atmosphere of these areas made them feel neglected and unpleasant, which is not what you want from basic amenities on any site.
For the price paid, the standard is unacceptable.
I’msorry to write this as I don’t normally do reviews. It’s a real shame because the location itself is quite scenic and the site has so much potential. There’s a peacefulness to the area that many campers seek.

Liked: Location and friendliness of staff.
Disliked: The charge of £1 for the showers. When one pays £30 + a night, then it's not unreasonable to expect "free" showers.
Also. As the site is down a hill, TV reception was at best, poor.

Liked: Location was a short drive to Ballycastle town
Scenic area
Disliked: We were pitched on the smaller grass area and did not like how cars could park on the grass so close to tents. Also, noise from other campers after 11pm (up until 5am) was very inconvenient.
A member of staff should be on site on night duty to ensure no noise disturbances.
Poor drainage in women’s showers, water was flowing out into main bathroom area leaving large puddles
One of the toilet seats in the women’s bathroom was broken and kept slipping to the side when using

From the manager: We at Glenmore are sorry you had nosey campers next to you I went around the site my self at 12 am and spoke to to tents that were a bit noisy, I take it it was Friday night, there are phone numbers there 24/7 to inform management I have looked at the diary for the whole weekend and there were no complaints made. If you were bothered by noisy neighbors to 5 am why did you not inform management I know you can complain after all you were able to inform people here you never even made a complaint at reception on the way out we would have approached the noisy campers and banded them from the site. I think you just love writing negative reviews. You were right about a ladies shower being blocked that night it was sorted next morning again it could have been sorted that night, but "O"sorry then you would have had nothing to write about.
Regards john
