  • A 95-acre park in one of the nine glens of Antrim
  • Views towards Rathlin Island, Islay and the Mull of Kintyre
  • Traditional music, bar and restaurant on site
More glens? Yes please. You’ll be belting out the lyrics of Green Glens of Antrim as soon as you set eyes on this park, set in a National Landscape in one of the nine Antrim glens. Glenmore Caravan and Camping Park is between Ballintoy and Ballycastle, in prime position for some of the most eye-watering scenery in the country – you might be tempted to say ‘in the world’ when you see it… Glenmore is a whopper of a park at 95 acres and there are several different pitching areas available, so pitch up with the kids or hide away with your other half in a romantic corner to take in the viewpoints across to Rathlin Island, the Mull of Kintyre or Islay. Newbies are well catered for: just ask the very friendly owners if you need help with your van or tent or how to pick something to do from the vast range of activities in the area if you’re using the park as your touristy base at any time of the year. Handily, the site has a bar and restaurant. If your family or suffering other half are threatening divorce as you sing Green Glens of Antrim yet again, they’ll be easily pacified: the two young women resident at the park are members of the traditional Irish band Tir na Og and can usually be persuaded to give a few songs and tunes any night. Harmony reigns…

What customers say

This campsite benefits from a stunning location with beautiful views, offering a peaceful atmosphere. It's well-situated for exploring local attractions. Guests generally find the staff friendly and welcoming. However, a recurring point is that the toilet and shower facilities are considered dated, in need of refurbishment, and some visitors found them to be unclean or basic. There is a charge for showers. Despite these drawbacks, many guests enjoyed their stay and would return.

Liked Jolie vue

Disliked Installations sanitaires vétustes et pas très propres. Pourquoi faut il payer 1£ pour les douches ?
Le terrain pour les tentes est très humides et aucune installation abritée pour manger (ou cuisiner), pas de table et banc non plus.

Pas de wifi non plus

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Location

Disliked Expensive; CCTV over whole campsite; half finished toilets; no toilet roll for most of stay; nonsensical rules; lots of rules.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: People who do not like security are people who we try to persuade not to come to the site, as they do not like rules and are a nuisance to other campers, your dog was running mad around the site and I had to warn you to keep it on a lead, what other rules did you intend to break hence the review, the enjoyment and safety on the site for both children and adults will always come first, we take the safety of our guests foremost over nasty review makers.
Regards Glenmore management

Liked Friendly staff and bar on site with outside place for kids to play. Firepit was nice.

Disliked Fine but basic and really needs a refresh with shower facilities. Overall did not feel very clean! Also bring £1 coins for the shower. Probably stayed in better sites for less.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Not far from Ballycastle centre.

Disliked Lack of security gate. Open access to the site from any non customers. Very few toilets and showers. All facilities looked old and unkempt but did function. Needed a £1 to operate shower for 5minutes. Looked at previous reviews from 2015 and same suggestions for improvements did not appear acted on. Payment can be made by card now.

Local attractions

Both Ballintoy and Ballycastle are on the coast road to Giant’s Causeway, the alleged stomping ground of giant Finn McCool and the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in Northern Ireland. Make a day of it by quivering across the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge (don’t look down) and calm your nerves afterwards with a toddy and a tour at Bushmills Distillery. Ballycastle is the ferry point for Rathlin Island, six miles off the coast. This RSPB reserve and tiny island is a must-see: get the Puffin Bus to the west coast to peer at the colourful critters up close, then stroll south to see the seals and the ruined stone cottages from days of yore. For day trips, the seaside towns of Portrush and Portstewart are where many Northern Irish folk meander to on a sunny day: Barry’s Amusements in Portrush is an institution, and Portstewart has to be visited for a roll down the sand dunes.
