What are your favourite Campsites in NI? NI only, good reason why I am asking for NI only :)

Ours...

Tollymore
Castlewellan
Drumaheglis
Jordanstown - for its cleanliness and handiness
Dundonald - for being an Aire in the winter(aire prices)
Annaginney
Annalong
Clare Glen
Drum Manor

O yes they do motorhomes,but if you want to bring along another vehicle then there is a problem.
I am speaking for a friend who had a young family and his wife drove their car so as to have transport but was denied access to the site.

Have tried to get into Kilbroney a few times but it was always Holliday times like Easter or July and it was always fully booked.

Just leave the car parked at the old castle and walk in to the campsite. A very short distance

Lusty Beg island car park or any of the car parks on the shores of lough Erne are good for overnighting, not campsites as such as there would be no services although there is a toilet block at Rossigh Bay.
Waken up to great views with the tranquility of the water and countryside
No restrictions that I know of

Riverside near Enniskillen would be by far our favourite.

Another vote for Mark at Riverside, Shepherds rest is excellent too but the data connection in the area is poor. Drum Manor campsite is currently having an electrical upgrade, stunning walks, kids play area about 300 metres away
etc.

Lol Norman, I have been working in Enniskillen this past 4 months so took the van to work on a Friday so Florencecourt and Riverside farm were my locations of choice this past while. I might get back to the Manor over the holidays though as I bought the TITTS key again

Stayed two nights there fortnight ago. Nice well kept site - well laid out. Price reduced to £12 a night because no toilets or kitchens open Great walks round Strangford Lough - 3 marked trails.
