A very nice review of our campsite and Doonbeg on Tripadvisor published today. Thank you, Nat, Ben, Charlie and Harriet for taking the time to write it.
We arrived to a warm welcome from Jamie and Amanda who we found to be extremely helpful and friendly throughout our stay.
The campsite is spotlessly clean, has been carefully designed with campers every need in mind and has the best showers you'll find on any campsite (and they're included in the price of your stay too - which is rare in Ireland...and they have music playing in them too)! There are clearly marked out pitches, areas for eating outside (a covered eating area too), a dog walk area, a ball games area and washing up and laundry facilities. The laundry area has drying frames inside and washing lines outside, plus a great outside space where you are welcome to wash and hang wetsuits - most useful.
Even though this is a small site, children are very well catered for with items for them to play with e.g. a Hurling stick and ball and nets for them to borrow if they wish to investigate the beach, which is right opposite the campsite, affording a beautiful view to wake up to.
We found the village of Doonbeg to be a pretty and friendly place. We visited Tubridys Pub for a great pint and a chat with the friendly landlady, we also visited the cafe for ice cream, the post office to buy and send postcards (the lady in here was so lovely to my daughter) and we also had a go on the paddle boats! These were run by two lovely young ladies and we had loads of fun peddling up and down the picturesque river! The blue flag beach (White Strand) is 5 mins drive from the site, free parking, has a lifeguard through July and August and was great for body boarding. An added extra for us was the proximity of the site to Father Ted's House (well worth booking a visit if you're a fan!). It's within an hour's drive through beautiful scenery.
All in all we had a wonderful stay - thank you Jamie and Amanda. We would thoroughly recommend staying at Strand Camping and guarantee you will love the site as much as we did. We have been touring around Ireland and this (we all agreed) has been our favourite site!
