    Superb location, with the pods overlooking the bay. The pods have a glass front (with privacy glass and lighting) making the most of the view. The pods were clean, and well equipped (although perhaps a little tight for a family!). The...

    We had no signal and it really felt like we were 'glamping' with a view. For a small space, it had everything you need and although we didn't see any staff, they were ever present through messages and emails to help us have a great time.

Company info

Our pods are set on a hill top site of this family-owned 17th-century castle with amazing views of the ocean. It’s a lovely place to stay, with friendly staff on-site. The castle is home to Randal, Viscount Dunluce, son of the 14th Earl of Antrim and his family. The team at Glenarm Castle will look after you during your stay. Glenarm Castle opened in July 2019 with amazing ocean views, but also overlooking the castle estate. With self-check-in/out you are safe, secure, but can create your own holiday experience. Camp fire packs are recommended. The host will have everything set up for before your arrival and will only come on site if required.

Property info

These unique holiday pods offer the perfect rural getaway along the Causeway Coastal Route. They're cosy, fully furnished and have all the comforts of home including electric, running water, mini fridge and heating. Plus, they're located with ocean views and looking across our stunning estate. The pod set up is for 2 adults and 2 kids with a double bed and bunk beds suitable for 15 years and under (under 5ft5) and is open all year round. Just a meander from the coast, you’re within reach of spectacular scenery and attractions. Drive to Dunluce Castle, sandy beaches, Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge, the Giant’s Causeway, and whiskey distilleries. Explore all that the estate and the area has to offer with an overnight stay in one of our pods situated on a hill top site. Each pod features an expansive glazed entrance, tea/coffee facilities, shower room, and somewhere to sit and relax. Pods include a comfy double bed and hotel-quality bed-linen included, plus integrated bunk-beds tucked away, ideal for tweens or teens. WiFi comes as standard, as do slots to charge phones and laptops. A few minutes walk from your pod you can enjoy all that Glenarm Castle and Gardens have to offer. This includes an award winning walled garden, tea room, mini-landrovers trail, e-bike hire, pizza parlour and several retailers.

Neighborhood info

There’s plenty to do at Glenarm Castle, from strolling in the castle’s Walled Garden & Woodland Walk, fun at the Mini Land Rover Experience for children, or renting a state of the art E-Bike and exploring the famous surrounding Antrim coast and countryside.
