Hidden Valley Holiday Park, Wicklow, Ireland

Hidden Valley is a serene haven of relaxation. Set in a beautiful valley with sites overlooking the tranquil waters of the Avonmore River and a glassy, private lake, The park offers guests the opportunity to experience a holiday amid an abundance of wildlife including kingfishers, cranes, wild geese, ducks, otters and pheasant.

Hidden Valley Holiday Park attracts couples and families seeking a peaceful, family-fun holiday in picturesque surroundings. The park offers both hard-standing and grass sites, each with electric, water and grey waste. The park also has a fantastic choice of boutique glamping lodges for those looking for an outdoor getaway with all the views of camping but with all the comforts of home.

The Park was formed in 2005 and is owned and operated by The Williams family. In the first three years of operation, the owners upgraded the holiday park from a 2-star park into a 4-star Failte Ireland approved park offering modern facilities and great value for couples and families alike. As a family owned and operated business we take great pride in assuring our guests a fantastic and memorable holiday.

The park is located in Rathdrum (“Ringfort of the Ridge”), which was originally the main town of Co. Wicklow, and is still well serviced by both train and bus. The town is situated high on the western side of the beautiful Avonmore Valley and offers the tourist scenic views of the Avonmore River, which flows through the Vale of Clara. The Rathdrum railway station opened on July 18th, 1863.

Rathdrum is well known for the Avondale House and Forest Park, which was home to Charles Stewart Parnell – one of the greatest political leaders of modern Irish History. The grounds offer excellent forest/river walks and picnics.

Rathdrum was also well known for the Rathdrum International Cartoon Festival. The Cartoon Inn displays the work of Bill Eirner, Hunt Emereson, Ulrich Schroeder, Bob Foster, which are among some of the famous artists whose work can be seen at close quarter. The Cartoon Inn is famed far and wide for the rich and humour cartoons which adorn its welcoming walls.

Decent enough campsite

Macrory, Lorraine - 11/05/2026

Location and facilities are excellent. They're upgrading a lot of their facilities which unfortunately has had the knock on effect of seriously increasing their prices at a time when people have less money to spend on entertainment. Activities are great but you used to be able to buy a good value wristband that covered a lot of the activities but they seem to be phasing it out so they can charge more. The quiet curfew wasn't enforced where we were camping which was unfortunate. So overall a great holiday spot but getting more and more expensive every trip and no dogs allowed in July and August. Used to be an amazing campsite... now it's mini centre parcs so depends on what you're looking for I guess.

Park great for kids

Unfortunately on the weekend we stayed the power kept going out and when we connected a member of staff they had told us that the pitches where we were stayed had been damaged due to flood so the electricity was faulty. Over the course of the 3 nights we stayed it would constantly be disconnected! Also no lights working at night time as we walked to the toilet area it was very dark and unsafe

Great stay

Beautiful location, loads of activities and I will definitely return!

First impressions was very good, highlight was kids making friends and memories

Great bank holiday weekend our second time visiting. The camp site is spotless credit to the staff but also the people visiting are very respectful its a great camp site for kids to play and make friends in a safe environment. If I had to be picky and try and say something to improve on the food isn't great in the restaurant four of us ordered four different things we ate it but wasn't great and one of the nights there was loud noise well after the curfew. In saying that its a great camp site for kids and I definitely will be back

Very good facilities.

Lovely location and some great activities for kids

Hidden Valley has a lovely position on the river. There is access to the river at different places which is lovely for kids and grown ups. Some fishing was done and plenty of stone skimming across the water (and splashes too!). The climbing wall is great and younger kids get a great kick out of the tubing. The restaurant can be busy but does pretty good food.

Very clean, well run and safe

Great location, facilities were clean and staff very friendly, would recommend as great value for money.

Amazing time and the weather didn't get us down

Easy to find, friendly staff, clean facilities, although bring shower shoes to wear while getting dressed after. Reasonably priced and great activites for the kids! Some issues with Electricity which were sorted for us quickly and we had the best time despite the rain. Rathdrum town has a couple of lovely bars and restaurants and a big centra, but the food in the resort is excellent. The sunday roast was my particular favourite!

Great accommodation

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the activities. We had dinner in Lakehouse on Saturday night which was very busy. Food was perfect and staff were very friendly and attentive.
