Camping & Caravanning
Camping pitch cyclist/walker & tent
We are rewarding zero carbon slow travel by offering discounted pitches for those arriving on foot or by cycle.
Camping in our Fastnet Camping field on landscaped pitches with views across Ballydevlin Bay to Fastnet Rock, the islands and beyond. Campers can enjoy and hang out in our Barrel Top building with its campers' kitchen and guest chefs. Next door is the laundry, and hot zero carbon showers & toilets. You can enjoy magical nights toasting marshmallows under the stars at the amphitheatre fire pit. Don't forget we offer kayaking experiences, bike hire, Wellbeing treatments, Target Archery & Archery games. Swim at our private spot Castle Strand. You can also order a box of organically grown veg from our farm. Please note the above full facilities will be available by July currently we have a temporary flushing toilet block, hot outdoor showers and a campers kitchen.

1. Book in at reception upon arrival, payment for your entire stay must be paid up front. You can arrive any time after 2pm on the first day of your booking and must depart by 11am. If your pitch is not clear by 11am you will be charged for another night’s stay.
2. Noise Levels should be maintained at a reasonable level. Amplified music is not allowed on site.
3. Campers shall take good care of and shall not cause any damage to the trees, shrubs, buildings, fixtures, fitting or other property. Any (accidental) damage will be paid for by the camper held responsible.

7. Campers under the age of 18 are not allowed on the site unless accompanied by at least one adult over the age of 25. You may be asked for ID.
8. Our Waste Policy
First and foremost we want you to adopt “Leave no trace”. This means leaving no
litter on our site even cigarette buts!
We are unable to arrange a waste collection service, which means we have to store and take the waste to the local amenity site. This is time-consuming and expensive. We will supply you with bags for your waste, then preferably you will take it to our local Civic Amenity Site at Derryconnel just East of Schull. If you want us to dispose of it we will charge €3 a bag for clean cardboard, paper and plastic recycling and €5 a bag for waste. All cans and bottles can be disposed of in Goleen village at the recycling point in the car park at the Doctors’ surgery.
Our water is from our well, plastic bottled water is not necessary.
Thanks for your cooperation, it’s very important to us that we protect our environment and its biodiversity.
9. No motorhomes over 8.5m unless they have prior approval.
10. Maximum stay on site is 28 days within the season.
