  • "If you're looking for a holiday for a family get together this is it! We booked out Catríona's site this summer and it was the best week...the location is absolutely gorgeous with a stoney beach at the end of the grounds, perfect for smallies to play and explore, a pier just up the lane, perfect for jumps into the gorgeous clear sea. The facilities are amazing and spotlessly clean, and the kitchen has everything you could need. We turned the communal dining room into a huge kids playroom, so even on the rainy days they were happy campers. The bell tents are so comfortable and the beds so cosy. I couldn't recommend it more."

  • "Really enjoyed our family break at Wild Atlantic Glamping on Bere island with Caitriona and her team. We spent lazy days swimming, kayaking, exploring rock pools and toasting marshmallows. The children enjoyed every minute and therefore I enjoyed every minute. I'd recommend this beautiful island and beautiful glamping site to anyone. Looking forward to our return visit next year."

  • OMG What a spot! We are a group of 25, aged from 25 to 60 who like the outdoors but love our creature comforts. Wild Atlantic Glamping Bere Island was the ideal spot for our group getaway. The site is beautifully situated beside a stony beach & near an old pier, giving great swimming/snorkelling/kayaking options. The views of Hungry Hill and Bantry Bay are spectacular. Bere island has lots to offer but you can have a great holiday without ever leaving the Glamping site!

  • "I organised a hen party to stay in Wild Atlantic Glamping and it was a fantastic experience! The place was incredibly clean, gorgeous and it is the most beautiful setting. The staff were super helpful and went above and beyond at every opportunity. The food was also fantastic! It was talked about for days after. The whole hen group enjoyed it and were raving about the beautifully designed facilities and comfortable tents, we are all definitely going back again with our own families. I could not recommend it anymore. It was simply wonderful and the owner made organising a hen part effortless!"

    — Amy

  • "A group of 13 of us just returned from an amazing 2 days at this stunning Glamping site in the most fantastic location. The tents were really nicely decorated with very comfortable beds. Spotless clean. We had fantastic swims from the pier right in front of site. Beautiful views. The facilities are excellent with a very well-equipped kitchen. Bere Island is such an amazing location and everyone we met was really friendly. Catriona is a super host with a wealth of information. She organised an amazing fish tasting meal at the site one of the nights. Would highly recommend it, a great place to go with a group of people."
