What customers say

Peaceful, quiet rural campsite with rustic charm. Friendly host, good value, handy kitchen. Flat pitches. Basic facilities noted, but a great base. Clearer signage and farm equipment screening requested.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The stay was inexpensive with good weekend availability for my late booking. The facilities were limited but this was expected and clear in the description on Pitch Up. The neutral overall rating balances the above factors.

Vehicles are parked beside the pitch. The owner was on site and helpfully provided a steel plate for my motorbike side stand.

The location made a convenient base for touring around Strangford Loch and the Mourne Mountains. The site itself was located on a mown small grass field next to the working farm.

Local attractions

What’s there to do in Belfast (half an hour's drive)? Plenty, it turns out. After all, Northern Ireland’s capital is where the Titanic was created, so there’s a museum dedicated to its rise and fall in the dockyards. Get a taste of life behind bars at the city’s Crumlin Road Gaol Visitor Attraction and Conference Centre too, which is a prison that closed in 1996. Already a pro at kayaking or knee boarding or looking to give it a go) Let's Go Hydro (25 minutes) runs watersports and an aqua park. If that gives you a taste for some water action, one of the nearest coastal spots is Newcastle (25 minutes). It has all the classic seaside amusements and backs onto forests and mountains. There’s a woodland, lake, garden and history trail around the Montalto Estate (15 minutes), so get your picnic blankets at the ready for a peaceful afternoon on the old estate built in the 1700s.
