Nature-lovers paradise, Northern Ireland is located in the Republic of Ireland, with historical significance and cultural diversity. Set sail from Belfast on the Titanic’s history, test your nerves with the spectacular vistas at the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, and take a car tour down the Causeway Coast.
Camping in Northern Ireland is an excellent opportunity to see the region’s stunning countryside and ancient landscapes. The Giant’s Causeway and the Antrim Glens can be seen in a short journey from Scotland or Liverpool, making this an excellent vacation spot.
The finest vacations are ones where you already know the most excellent campgrounds are! We’ve put together our list of the Top 10 caravan sites Northern Ireland.
Caravan Sites Northern Ireland – Top 10 to Visit in the City
1. Maddybenny
Maddybenny is unique in that it has a fully equipped riding school on-site. So, whether you’re a seasoned rider or your only experience with horses is a yearly wager on the Grand National, the chance to saddle up at least once in your life is one not to pass up.
A tiny touring caravan site (six sites) located in 110 acres of woods and active farming — keep an eye out for ducks and peacocks.
2. Ballyleese Town and Caravan Park
Ballyleese Caravan Park is located on the outskirts of famous Portstewart, only a few minutes from the Strand Beach, excellent golf range, and a lively promenade with restaurants, shops, pubs, and lots of activities for children.

A well-kept park with a welcoming environment for families.
3. Ballyness Caravan Park
The facility, laden with industry accolades and superb amenities, has fifty pitches and is located in the shadow of the Giant’s Causeway, a few relatively long walks away. During the summer, a Causeway Rambler bus will transport you to the spot.
Then it’s essential to put your best foot forward along the Causeway Trail. Bushmills provides admission-charged tours of their operational distillery if you like a little whiskey.
It’s near enough to the park to leave the vehicle there, particularly if you want to partake in the whiskey tasting.
4. The Shepherds Rest Pub
There is a garden house with an open fire, armchairs, a table and chairs, a sink, glasses, plates, and other cooking items. There are additional tables and chairs outside, rocking seats, and the rising light on your face in the morning.
Our new facilities complex, which has both women’s and gent’s restrooms and showers and family rooms with toilet and shower integrated, is unique for the 2017 season.
An accessible bathroom, a modern washroom, a games room, and a sitting area are all available. Underfloor heating installs in all of these areas. There is also a house where bikes and equipment may wash.
5. Rushin House Caravan Park
Set on the banks of Lough MacNean (really two lakes, with the hamlet of Belcoo smack dab in the middle), it’s peaceful and the ideal base for exploring the surrounding countryside. If you desire to go abroad, the Republic of Ireland is just a short drive away.
The focus is on the environmentally friendly, with wind-generated electricity, recycling bins at every turn, and even outdoor furniture constructed from recycled plastic.
6. Hillfoot Caravan and Camping
It’s a no-fuss, pleasant, calm, pastoral location, but if wild excitement is what you’re looking for, it’s an excellent position for starting the NW200 annual motorcycle road race, which takes place only a few miles up the road from May 10 to 16.

At the foot of Benbradagh mountain (all 1,526 feet), which means ‘thief’s peak,’ yet the owner’s collie dog Ben is just as much of a draw as the mountain itself.
7. Jordanstown Loughshore Caravan Park
It is located just north of Belfast and boasts magnificent views of Belfast Lough. With its good transport connections, you can leave the vehicle at the hotel and explore Northern Ireland’s flagship city and the area beyond.

A council-owned and operated caravan park is an uncommon find. There is also a 9-mile cycling trail, the Newtownabbey Way. Overall, Jordanstown proves that caravanning isn’t limited to the countryside or the shore.
8. Lough Neagh
With a surface size of 151 square miles, Lough Neagh is the largest freshwater lake in the British Isles. Stay at Kinnego Marina Caravan Park, a purpose-built site on the outskirts of Oxford Island National Nature Reserve, near the lough’s largest marina.

Signposted off the A29 between Coleraine and Portrush, about a mile from the city centre. All main tourist sites, including the beach towns of Portrush and Portstewart and the Giant’s Causeway, are nearby. Caravan vacation houses and holiday cottages are now available for rent.
10. Co Fermanagh
Please stay on the shores of Upper Lough Erne at this award-winning site, where facilities, activities and attractions are on tap for young and old and their pets. The park has 20 acres of Castle Archdale Country Park, including a boat rental and watersports centre and a ferry to the little White Island.
