What customers say
Lovely lakeside site near Drumshanbo village, with friendly staff and kayaking. Some reviews mention cleanliness issues in facilities, overcrowding and noise during peak times.

We still enjoyed our 2 nights despite poor sleep.
Electric grass and gravel tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Location and Price were great.
Disliked The kitchen was dirty.
The toilets were dirty -mens worse than womens.
There was dog poo on the pitch sites.
There is no policing of loud noise and drinking after 10 pm despite the 10 pm curfew.
Broken down half sunken boats in the lake were unsightly and likely dangerous.
We had items stolen from the freezer.

Nothing…
Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Nothing
Disliked Worse place I ever stayed the toilets were filthy, the showers were filthy, rubbish everywhere music all night until 6.30am on 2 nights and until 3am on the Sunday night
I have never seen a Worse place or stayed in anything like it before it was also impossible to move your car to exit the site and if there was an emergency there was no through way for emergency services
I will never ever stay in it again and will never recommen it to anyone.

Massive overall needed.
Electric grass and gravel tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Nothing.
Disliked We stayed for 3 nights, the place was overcrowded and facilities were filthy. We paid for electricity, and it kept tripping, so we had no power for half the trip. There is nothing for the kids to do. It could really be a lovely spot if upgrades were made, like a playground, shop, massive overall on the facilities, Mark out pitches so that when you go off and come back there's not a caravan parked were you had sat outside your tent for breakfast.

A would-be forerunner in the camping stakes, if more was done.
Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch
Liked The acceptance and the welcome, at such short notice.
Great location, wonderful scenery and all within a few minutes walk to town. A couple of nice pubs in Drumshanbo.
Disliked Overcrowding, albeit on a Bank Holiday weekend.
Noise levels and kids running about until all hours of the morning. Part of my motorhome was broken (minor damage but nonetheless, frustrating.
Sanitation/Washroom facilities limited, unkept, with limited hot water for showering.
Look! I'm not a moan. I've roughed it in the past and I love to see people enjoying themselves, especially kids (it brings me back to my youth), but lordy Lord. Maybe it was these peoples customs back home but when you see the 'strict' rules and regulations for such places being blatantly disregarded, and no action taken, it tends to place such establishments way down on your bucket list.
I'd be willing to give it another go, on an off peak season. The scenery alone is a factor that will draw you back.
