Lough Ree (East) Caravan & Camping Park

Athlone, Co. Westmeath, Heart

Alan Rogers Review

This touring park is alongside the river, screened by trees but reaching the water’s edge. Drive into the small village of Ballykeeran and the park is discreetly located behind the main street. The top half of the site is in a woodland situation and after the reception and sanitary block, Lough Ree comes into view and the remaining pitches run down to the shoreline. There are 60 pitches, 20 with hardstanding and 52 with electricity (6A). With fishing right on the doorstep there are boats for hire locally and the site has its own private mooring buoys, plus a dinghy slip and harbour. A restaurant and ‘singing’ pub are close.
