The 211 touring pitches (many fully serviced) are divided into separate, well-landscaped areas with a separate adults-only section. All have 6/10 amp electricity connections and offer a choice of hardstanding or grass. A further 26 pitches are given over to seasonal tourers.

Gyles Quay Caravan and Camping Park is a charming little spot nestled beneath the Cooley Mountains and overlooking Dundalk Bay in County Louth, Ireland.

This touring park sits alongside the Breensford River, screened by trees but reaching the water’s edge. It's a pleasant rural spot, peaceful and surrounded by fields, woodland and a few houses. The top half of the site is in woodland, and beyond the reception and sanitary block, Lough Ree comes into view, and the remaining pitches run down to the shoreline. There are 60 pitches, most on hardstanding and all with 6A electricity. With fishing right on the doorstep, there are boats for hire locally, and the site has private mooring buoys, plus a dinghy slip and harbour. A restaurant and a ‘singing’ pub are close by.

This site makes an excellent stopover if travelling from Dublin to the southeast counties. It is also ideally placed to visit local places of interest including the Shackleton exhibition, the Japanese Gardens and the Irish National Stud. Part of a working farm, the campsite spreads to the right of the modern farmhouse, which also provides B&B and holiday apartments. The owners have cleverly utilised their land to create a site which offers 64 unmarked touring pitches on level ground. Of these, 32 are for caravans, all with electricity and ten with hardstanding, and 32 places are available for tents. Full Irish breakfasts are served at the farmhouse, and farm tours are arranged on request. The park is signed on the R418 and approached by a 500-metre avenue of tall pines.

Across a fine footbridge is a large, flat area for tents – most used by families during high season.

In the heart of the Wicklow mountains, the hospitable owner of this park maintains high standards. It is neatly laid out with rows of trees dividing the different areas and giving an attractive appearance.
