Eagle Point Caravan & Camping Park

Alan Rogers Review

Midway between the towns of Bantry and Glengarriff, the spectacular peninsula of Eagle Point juts into Bantry Bay. The first impression is of a spacious country park rather than a campsite. As far as the eye can see this 20-acre, landscaped, part-terraced park, with its vast manicured grass areas separated by mature trees, shrubs and hedges, runs parallel with the shoreline providing lovely views. Suitable for all ages, this is a well run park mainly for touring units, with campers pitched mostly towards the shore. It provides 125 pitches with 6A electricity, although many are seasonally occupied.

For wet weather, a timbered building towards the water’s edge houses three lounges, two for children and all with TV. The brightly decorated interior is guaranteed to brighten the dullest of days. Eagle Point makes an excellent base for sightseeing throughout West Cork and Kerry and its sheltered location makes it ideal for watersports enthusiasts. Swimming is safe and there is a slipway for small craft.
