Carrick Dhu Caravan Park

4.7 (112 reviews)

With the Atlantic Ocean just across from the Park entrance, holidaymakers have easy access to rock pools, and further coastal walks into both Portrush and Portstewart. These can be enjoyed along the spectacular Port Path (also known as the Ulster Way / Causeway Coast Way).

Carrick Dhu Holiday Park is located on the Causeway Coastal Route, the A2 Portrush to Portstewart Road running between these two popular seaside resorts. Situated just outside Portrush, visitors can enjoy the award-winning West Bay beach, at least two local restaurants and Ballyreagh Golf Course all within a kilometre's walk.

We have invested considerably in the provision of completely new touring pitches for caravans and motorhomes – while this has reduced the number available to 35, they are more spacious and with hard surfacing for vehicles / caravans, they offer better conditions in all weathers.

Some pitches are longer - pitches 14 to 18 - and more suitable for motorhomes. Artificial grass offers further comfort, and securing awnings will require metal pegs, which are to be inserted in the natural grass just at the edge of the artificial grass, and, if required for just next to a caravan, sandbags (supplied) for tying to.

Our on site facilities include 35 Touring caravan / motorhome hard-surfaced fully serviced pitches, modern family shower/laundry facilities with disabled access, and a safe and accessible children’s outdoor play area. Guests can also avail of our onsite Chip Shop, Coffee Shop, our Recreation/Table Tennis Hall and a helpful Visitor Information Centre.

The Atlantic Ocean is just across from the Park entrance with easy access to rock pools, and further coastal walks into both Portrush and Portstewart can be enjoyed along the spectacular Port Path (also known as the Ulster Way / Causeway Coast Way): alternatively, why not try cycling along the Sustrans off-road route, or relax on the regular scheduled bus service? All options start from just outside the Park.

Place is nice and clean

Had a nice time but you need to get parking sorted out, ie let me know one car for each tent pitch. The first night we where there we couldn't get parked and had to park at the chip shop. People in other tents had more than one car and parked in the space beside our tent. They puller a trailer over so we couldn't park there. Also when we booked back in Feb we where told we could only book for a minimum of four nights, there was people there that would able to book for two nights. Would also need to sort the hairdryers out as it was 20p and were lucky if it was two minutes of drying time. Apart from that we enjoyed our stay and will probably return next year

Fantastic first trip!

This was our first stay at Carrick Dhu and it certainly won't be our last. The check-in process was quick and straightforward, and the facilities were excellent. The shower block was spotless, with powerful, consistently hot showers.The pitches are well laid out, with AstroTurf for the awning and plenty of space for the car. It's also just a lovely 15-minute walk into Portrush, making it the perfect location.We had a fantastic stay and can't wait to come back.Jayne

We had an absolutely fantastic time at Costa del Port. That’s what it felt like. Weather was awesome. Site was great. Not our first time and as usual the sites high standards remain. Sites are excellently maintained. Toilets were very clean. Slight issues getting parked at the tented area. Don’t forget your £1 for a shower. We’ll be back!!
