We've just come back from a fantastic week's camping at Benone Tourist Complex. Our first night was spent in one of their lovely wooden pods, due to there being no camping availability on the first night when we booked a few months ago. The hut was fantastic (nice bunk beds, kettle, heater etc). Toilet facilities were good and clean (hot showers with no timers!) although a little old. Luckily, the campsite was pretty much empty while we were there so no issues with there only bring two showers in the main block. Staff were very helpful, especially as we arrived late after our ferry was cancelled. Our camping area also had a really nice communal BBQ area, which we used one night. Raised area with picnic benches and brick BBQs. Overall, this is a cracking site. Although some of the facilities are a little old, it just adds to the charm. 'Benone Tourist Complex' makes it sound like a Butlins-style place, but it's really not. Don't let the name put you off. This is a wonderful site in a beautiful area of Ireland. Recommended.

Great weekend despite the disappointing weather

We stayed on the camping pods for a night, it suited us ok as we were only there one night. There is a kettle but not much use if you haven’t a fridge to store milk!! The cafe onsite is nice and not to expensive kids were happy with the crazy golf and the beach is... We stayed on the camping pods for a night, it suited us ok as we were only there one night. There is a kettle but not much use if you haven’t a fridge to store milk!! The cafe onsite is nice and not to expensive kids were happy with the crazy golf and the beach is lovely . StAff were pleasant. My only complaint which i didn’t make (I would If i stayed again) it was dirty the floor wasn’t brushed the one surface in the pod for the kettle was sticky and there was bottles and tops lying about! I was too tired to complain at the time just wanted to get car unpacked and off out to enjoy weather!

Glamping was a new experience and really enjoyed it. Cabins could do with another window, and the door of our cabin had been repaired but did not close at the bottom as it was twisted. The toilet facilities for glamping were very basic. There was never any hot water... Glamping was a new experience and really enjoyed it. Cabins could do with another window, and the door of our cabin had been repaired but did not close at the bottom as it was twisted. The toilet facilities for glamping were very basic. There was never any hot water for any of the basins and there was no heat in the hand drier.

We have stayed here several times in the glamping pods which are brilliant, I do however feel there is room for improvement on the site 1. cleanliness of the showers - people walk sand and dirt into the shower which the next person then has to walk through after... We have stayed here several times in the glamping pods which are brilliant, I do however feel there is room for improvement on the site 1. cleanliness of the showers - people walk sand and dirt into the shower which the next person then has to walk through after having a shower - could a mop be left in the shower area so people can clean the floor down after themselves 2. evening facilities - would be great if there was more choice in the games room later in the evening or an onsite bar and chippy (even if it closed at 8/9pm)

Fabulous stay in the glamping pods will definitely be booking again for next year

Glamping lodge very comfortable and cosy washing facilities very good and location perfect!

Positive experience
