  • Eco-friendly site in Miltown Malbay, a hub of traditional music
  • A five-minute drive from Spanish Point and the Wild Atlantic Way
  • Fresh produce for sale on site from the organic smallholding
Ireland is known as the Emerald Isle, but this County Clare site is green in more ways than one… Eco Camping Glamping is a peaceful park three kilometres from seaside strolls along the wild west coast. Head to this off-grid, eco-conscious site to wake up to views of green fields, native trees and wildflower meadows. All of the site's power, including charging points for gadgets, is supplied by renewable sources. There's also an organic smallholding on site, meaning that the folk that run this place are well-placed to supply you with healthy goodies like free-range eggs and fresh salad. The surrounding landscape is pleasant and gentle indeed, but more dramatic views are just around the corner. Head to the coast (five minutes’ drive) to join the Wild Atlantic Way – highlights along this well-trodden trail include the Cliffs of Moher, Spanish Point and the lush Loop Head Peninsula. For some beach time, Spanish Point beach is a three-kilometre or 45-minute walk away from the site (or a five-minute drive). Whitestrand, Miltown Malbay, is another fine spot for a quick swim, and it's only five minutes' drive away from the site. Eco Camping Glamping is close to Miltown Malbay – so close, in fact, that this town's food shops, bars and pubs can all be reached within a five-minute walk. This place is known as 'the home of traditional Irish music', so a toe-tapping pint or two at a local live music night should certainly be on the cards during your stay.

What customers say

Great eco-campsite with a chill vibe. Loved the close proximity to town, shops & pubs with live music. Friendly staff, natural setting & animals a bonus. Facilities are basic but clean. 'Off-grid' means it's not for everyone. Perfect for a nature escape.

Liked The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The campsite was lovely with lots of animals running around. We bought fresh eggs and lettuce that were delicious. Such a chilled out vibe in this campsite. Will definitely be returning. The facilities were perfect for what we needed.

Manon S.

Unpowered grass site

Liked Very green campsite, lovely staff and lovely animals.
Liked the smalls sinks and water filter.
Toilet facilities closeby.
Liked the circus tent to hang out in!
Close to Supervalu and laundromat and close to pubs with live music!

Disliked Shower facilities were not very satisfying: not enough water pressure, mouldy wood and only one shower for the entire campsite.
Not very sure what the term 'glamping' is based on.

Liked Really enjoyed our stay at the Eco campsite in Milltown Malbay. Micheál and Lucy were really welcoming and helpful. It’s a simple and relaxing place to spend a few days. The location really suited us for getting to swimming spots nearby as well as being able to walk into the town in the evenings. We will definitely be back.

Local attractions

This stretch of the Clare coast really does hit the ball out of the proverbial park. As it's the closest beach, you'll most likely want to kick things off at Spanish Point (five minutes' drive), a peaceful stretch of sand named after Armada ships that were shipwrecked nearby in 1588. There's also a beachfront golf club here (also five minutes), a nifty nine-holer with ace sea views. Onwards next to further-flung spots like White Strand beach (25 minutes), the Loop Head Peninsula (30 minutes) and the Cliffs of Moher (30 minutes), each and every one of which is full of natural loveliness. The latter spot is particularly impressive and one of the most visited locales in all of Ireland – with eight kilometres of dramatic coastal vistas, 20 species of nesting birds and UNESCO Global Geopark status, there's certainly a lot to reel fresh air-loving travellers in. An afternoon trip to Willie Daly's Donkey Farm (20 minutes) should go down a treat with the children, although it's also worth knowing that there are some small farm animals to be seen around Eco Camping Glamping. The Aillwee Caves (50 minutes) are also likely to capture kids' imaginations.
