Fairhead Glamping Pods is on a working farm which has been in the McCarry family for several generations. The site is on Fairhead (Benmore) and is located just past Coolanlough which is a clachan (small group of old cottages) and looks out over one of three lakes at Fairhead. The lake has a crannog (a man made island) in the middle of it. The crannog in the lake dates back to approximately the 1600s and, according to the Ordnance Survey (OS) Memoirs of 1838, was built by one of the McDonnell chieftains who apparently had a house and land on Fairhead. Fairhead is in an area of outstanding natural beaty. A popular and spectacular location with several sceens from the Game of Thrones filmed here. Situated on top of Fairhead (Benmore) you have walking access along the cliff with breath-taking views on what can only be described as a ruggedly beautiful, wild and remote walk. Expect stunning coastal views towards Ballycastle and Rathlin Island with Scotland beyond. Part of the walk is above the picturesque Murlough Bay, passing historic loughs and open green farmland with livestock.
Eoin is your host, who lives nearby. Everything is setup prior to your arrival at the pods before you check-in, so will only meet you onsite if you require him to do so.
Uniquely positioned in the Glens of Antrim, Fairhead Glamping Pods is close to many of the tourist attractions associated with the Causeway coast and Glens. Murlough Bay and beach is within 2 miles walking distance. The local town of Ballycastle is a short 10 minute drive with many amenities including a beach, bars and restaurants. The ferry terminal to Rathlin Island operates from Ballycastle harbour. Coastal visits nearby include Cushendun, Glenariff forest park, Carrick-a-rede rope bridge and the Giants Causeway.
