Campers are go

Following the success of the meet, Sean the farmer has now organised toilet facilities for the use of campers for the rest of the summer. Combined with the fresh water available in the Car Park, there's everything now in place to make this a comfortable campsite for however long you wish to stay. The cost is £5 per night per person which includes car parking. Please pay using the honesty box when you arrive, or if you are not sure how long you are going to stay on a day-to-day basis, first thing in the morning.

 

Castle Hostel re-opens

It's fantastic to let you all know that the Castle Hostel in Ballycastle has re-opened again in new premises, just a few doors up from where it was previously on Quay Road, close to the Marine Hotel. For visiting climbers it couldn't be better, close to the pubs, nice hot showers and a really welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Climbers have already used it giving it the thumbs up and noting that the accommodation was excellent, clean with a nice kitchen and big lounge dining area. £15 per person per night and the phone number is 028 2076 2845. Best to book in advance as it'll be very popular.
