What customers say

Cracking spot for Belfast, with gorgeous views and sound staff. Restaurant's decent too. But a fair few folks reckon the facilities, especially the loos and showers, are a bit of a kip, and there were grumbles about water and upkeep.

Rosanna K.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked The lady at reception was really friendly and helpful. We arrived when the restaurant was shut and she went out of her way and made us the most amazing pizzas.
Beautiful views - shame we didn’t have more time to take advantage of one of the walking routes for which maps were provided.

Disliked Camping facilities (toilets, showers, washing up) a bit rough and ready but this didn’t matter to us as we were only there one night.

Liked The camp friends I met during the three nights made this campsite bearable

Disliked Dirty toilets/showers. Uncovered dirty Belfast sink for washing up. No covered areas to cook in if raining. The worst campsite I have experienced

Local attractions

Boots at the ready… you can walk straight from the lodge onto the Divis mountain trail, or the Black Mountain trail, both of which have gorgeous views along with a good amount of wildlife to spot (see if you can spot any red grouse or peregrine falcons overhead as you look out towards the Belfast skyline). More walks? Head out into the Antrim Coast and Glens Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (35 minutes’ drive) or aim south to the mountains of the Mourne Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (50 minutes). If you’ve not managed to spot any big birds along the trails, you’ll surely have better luck at World of Owls (35 minutes). For magnificent buildings, meanwhile, try Antrim Castle (20 minutes) or Carrickfergus Castle (half an hour). Belfast (15 minutes) is a grand place for a day out too – perhaps visiting the Titanic Museum and Crumlin Road Gaol or taking a black cab tour to learn about the city’s troubled history.
