Glamping Holidays on Cape Clear Island are a unique, peaceful and adventurous opportunity to leave the mainland and your worries behind.
Being Ireland’s most southerly Irish speaking inhabited island, situated some 8 miles off the coast of West Cork, makes Cape a pretty special place for your holiday.
Glamping, Bell Tent or Camping?
You have a choice for your holiday accommodation, all exciting in their own right and very different, the choice is yours. You can stay in one of our luxury Yurts or our stylish Bell Tents. Alternatively, you could bring your own tent, but check beforehand as we only have limited pitches available.
Glamping
Yurts originate from Mongolia and are made from natural fibres & timber. A wooden lattice forms the circular wall, with decorated poles pointing skyward to the centre window at the top. This framework is covered in thick felt and protective materials to make a warm snug, calm environment, perfect for you to relax in. Light your log stove, shut your wooden door on the elements and bring out your guitar or favourite book.
Bell Tents
Staying in a canvas bell tent with family or friends, is a mixture of old fashioned camping in a beautiful place, with a very modern desire to be more environmentally friendly than just about any other holiday could be.
Camping
Camping seaside with beautiful walks behind is a perfect combination of relaxation and adventure. The refreshing sea breeze and stunning views create a peaceful atmosphere, while the beautiful walks offer a chance to explore nature. Camping Cape Clear is perfect for unwinding and reconnecting with nature.
The ever changing colours of the hillsides, where wild flowers mix with yellows and purples of gorse and heather, turning to the rich autumn gold of bracken.
Take the 45 minute ferry trip from Baltimore and relax amongst the romantic scenery, while absorbing the tranquil beauty of the island, with its rolling hills and shimmering harbours.
