Benone Glamping Lodge

It's advertised as "glamping" implying glamours camping, in fact it's a shed with a bed. The "beds" are too short for a grown up man, they are shelves with rubber mattresses that were covered in sand. The washing facilities are horrendous and dirty. I don't think...

I don't think "glamping" is an appropriate description of the facilities on offer.

Had a great stay at benone and will be back next summer

Had a lovely few days in one of the glamping lodges. We are a family of 4 with 2 young kids so found the pod accommodated us well. However I think it would be very cramped with older kids or adults.

However I think it would be very cramped with older kids or adults. The kids loved the bunkbeds and loads of outdoor space for riding bikes etc. The picnic table outside came in handy for bbq's but if it's raining theres no where for cooking. The on site cafe closed at around 5 so no where onsite to eat. Everywhere else is a car ride away. Being right next to the beach is a bonus and plenty of parks and pools for kids. Would go back again.

This is the first time we’ve camped at Benone and from all our perspectives it was fantastic. Despite the wether being poor and it feeling slightly towards the end of the camping season the kids had plenty to entertain them which gave us time to relax. The beach is... This is the first time we’ve camped at Benone and from all our perspectives it was fantastic. Despite the wether being poor and it feeling slightly towards the end of the camping season the kids had plenty to entertain them which gave us time to relax. The beach is breathtaking and is constantly being maintained and our trip to Downhill House and Mussenden Temple was much better than I’d anticipated. Overall the experience was very enjoyable and the facilities at Benone were excellent. Indeed the on-site cafe is worth a special mention as the quality of the food was excellent and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful.

Facilities need to be cleaned more regularly due to the high volume of users. Also pool area was closed the whole time we where there. It said this was due to the weather conditions to begin with, but the weather was fine. Then when it was to open on the Monday there was a management issue. At least we where able to go to the beach on the days when the weather was supposed to be to bad to open the pool!

Had a fabulous time at Benone and used all the facilities , pools, waves cafe.and had relaxed walks on the fantastic beach. Great location and and would recommend to anyone and our stay was great.

The toilet facilities were dirty and unclean. The showers were also very dirty and not cleaned after use. Left over razors in windows. No toilet roll or hand wash available. Camping pod was clean.

First time glamping, so didn't quite know what to expect. The wooden lodge was lovely, was supposed to sleep 6, but there were 4 of us (2 adults and 2 children) and I believe 6 would be very crowded. I did not like having to use communal showers and toilets.

The facilities were ok but the toilet was blocked and they hadn't been cleaned including the shower area. The bins at the entrance to the glamping pods were overflowing with rubbish and the area was unclean. Office staff were just sitting round chatting when they... The facilities were ok but the toilet was blocked and they hadn't been cleaned including the shower area. The bins at the entrance to the glamping pods were overflowing with rubbish and the area was unclean. Office staff were just sitting round chatting when they should have obviously been cleaning.

We arrived on the Sunday evening and were shown to our lodge. There was no additional information offered about times of activities etc or cafe and no info in the lodge. We went looking for this ourselves the next day. The bins facing our lodge were emptied on Monday... We arrived on the Sunday evening and were shown to our lodge. There was no additional information offered about times of activities etc or cafe and no info in the lodge. We went looking for this ourselves the next day. The bins facing our lodge were emptied on Monday then not emptied again before we left on Thursday, it was disgusting especially as the cafe were also using these bins. The showers weren't cleaned until Wednesday and were pretty rotten. The toilets were not cleaned every day and there seemed to be a toilet roll shortage. The open was on in portrush at thd same time so I can only assume a lot of staff had been sent to work there. Other than that it has the potential to be a lovely place to stay.
