Finally the news has arrived that Wild Atlantic Camp is now officially a Failte Ireland approved 4 Star Glamping Site.

Which of these 7 types of campers are you?

With Spring upon us and Easter not too far away today we ask a most important question - which type of camper are you? Here at Wild Atlantic Camp we welcome all types of campers. Here's what some of our recent guests have said about us ... "We really enjoyed our stay on Friday night.  The "Just for Two" pod was really, really nice (so nice, you should have a second one!) and the small touches (the pint of milk left for making tea and pints vouchers for Roses pub) were all there."  Eoin Grace, Dublin "Thanks for a lovely stay. Looking forward to our next visit."  Lisa Skipp, Newtownards "Our pod was lovely and warm, cosy and snug, and very quiet.

Two days in North West Donegal – a travel guide

Where to stay, eat and visit on a short trip to north west Donegal - home to five of the Discovery Points on Ireland's new Wild Atlantic Way. Before arrival, the most essential items you need to pack for a weekend exploring the pretty coastline around Creeslough in North West Donegal are a good pair of walking shoes, a waterproof and a camera. Donegal is all about the scenery and this part of the county is no exception.  Some say it is the jewel in the crown.  Whatever your opinion, be prepared to leave with cleaner lungs and a brighter spirit. The main attractions The road that hugs the coastline from Falcarragh in the west to Island Roy near Carrigart in the east spans about 40km and takes in no less than five Discovery Points - Horn Head, Marble Hill, Doe Castle, Rossguill Peninsula and Island Roy itself. It's easy to see why these scenic spots were chosen although whoever had to make the decision on which locations to choose definitely had a tough job. Beaches, walks and viewpoints Killahoey Beach, Dunfanaghy For more equally beautiful beaches to loose yourself on check out Falcarragh's endless Back Strand for views out to Tory Island (follow the signs for Trá from the town centre). Make time to visit Killahoey beach in Dunfanaghy for an enjoyable looped walk to and from the village, when the tide's out. Both beaches can be accessed easily from their respective car parks. If it's a decent leg stretch you're after then pack a flask and head off across the sand dunes to visit Tra More beach, at the foot of the Horn Head road in Dunfanaghy.  You'll probably have the place to [...]

Camping with Kids – a book review

I bought a copy of The Down and Dirty Guide to Camping with Kids by Helen Olsson a few years ago in a renewed flush of enthusiasm for holidays under the stars and would recommend it to anyone planning a camping trip with children. What's Camping with Kids about? Written in an engaging and informative style Helen Olsson readily peppers the advice she gives with anecdotes from her own experiences as a mother of 3 young kids. The focus of Camping with Kids is firmly on how to create happy memories with your children and the secret to that on a camping trip is good planning. Whilst more experienced or regular campers may find the advice a little basic others will definitely appreciate the leave-nothing-to-chance packing checklists. The book is written for an American audience so many of the references and resources may not be especially relevant for European readers but a quick question to Mrs Google will deliver a more local alternative, if necessary. What the book covers Camping with Kids is split into four parts: Part one - Getting started Planning your trip Gearing up Part two - In the field The campsite Camp grub Part three - Activities and adventures Outdoor recreation Campsite boredom busters Camp arts and crafts Part four - Hygiene, first aid and safety Daily hygiene - staying clean in a world of dirt Aches, pains, pesky plants and bugs General safety in the Great Outdoors Best bits The Campsite boredom busters has some good ideas for games where no batteries are required.  The Smart Tips and highlighted boxes on the pages make it easy to pick out information at a glance while the Knot Tying section with simple [...]
