Crotty's Lake Camping

A aimé Stayed for 2 nights. Great location to get the kids offline and back into the fresh air and a base to travel around. Great involvement from the owner and the manager too. No faff camping. Clean site throughout. Had our own light show from the 'All together Now' festival too which was surreal considering your surroundings. The lake is a must but it is a trek but it's definitely worth it. Toilet facilities served their purpose, nice little coffee dock adjoining it too. Even with a number of other campers with kids and dogs, the atmosphere was relaxed and calm. No issues with signal either was a nice bonus.

A aimé • Beautiful scenery.

• Peaceful atmosphere.

• The Campsite Manager, Joe, was so friendly and welcoming.

• The owners and staff treat everyone like family.

• The history of the lake involves the fascinating tale of William Crotty, the Irish Robin Hood, which Joe was very knowledgeable about.

• Stunning wildlife: we saw a fox, hedgehog, butterflies, dragonflies and a little rabbit.

• The communal area includes an honesty shop with hot water for tea and coffee as well as snacks, a sink and a fridge.

• There was a lovely couple (Felix and Jasmine) serving proper coffee with an espresso machine at great value.

• There's a barbecue at the communal area, which people were allowed to use and the staff also provided a beautiful barbecue spread for everyone staying at the site one of the nights we stayed.

• The tranquil sound of the stream along the hike up to the lake.

• Wild outdoor shower.

• There is a unisex toilet available (and the owners were even kind enough to open up the bathroom in their own home when it was particularly busy).

• Dog-friendly.

N'a pas aimé The fact that in advertising that campervans etc parked in stunning views and that was not the case ,we were parked at the side of a busy dusty laneway up against trees with Zero view .
We knew there was a hike to the lake ,but nowhere mentioned about long walks to any views. We drove the 1.5 hours to relax with a nice view.
Cars flying up and down past us on the laneway till after 9 / 10 pm . A box body van was let idle their engine till 11pm ALL DAY extremely rude and not fair.
It was noisy till after midnight.
20 euro for what ?? To park on a noisy laneway ....I've showed people pics of our actual " park up" and they laughed and won't be going there either.
