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.

Really good place to spend weekend with schoolmates. This year we met some construction works that limited availability of some activities. Hope to have fully operating area for the next year.

Everything available

The only bad thing I have to say is...the pizza is so badly made and skimpy for the price...next time I'll get my pizza from mizzoni's up the road...we had bought 4 of them costing €50...it would have been tastier to eat the €50 note

Amazing

We returned as we loved it here last year for my daughter’s birthday. But this year was really a big letdown, we stayed for my daughter’s 7th birthday and we were so excited to get away for the weekend as a family. Only to find all the staff were so rude, no experience with customer service, no manners and need training badly. No help with anything we were asking for and didn’t seem like they wanted to even be there. My daughter asked me what the issue was as she could see how rude the staff were. I think having to pay for each activity was over the top and should be included within the price of the stay as it’s not exactly cheap for a stay. We would not come back or recommend as it was such a big let down. The place itself is beautiful and there is so much potential but the staff really did ruin the experience for us.i had asked for a travel cot on arrival in the room for our baby and we were not provided with one. I also found having no soap or towels in the room was another let down

Fun all day

We stayed in the boutique Lodge very comfortable and spacious. Kids had great fun on all the activities

The way camp sites should be

Stayed for 2 nights with family, June 5th to 7th 2026. We were really happy with everything, the pod exceeded expectations, it was clean and comfortable, very cosy and no requirement for the heater to be put on! The site toilets were impressive too, well maintained and stocked. Activities are well organised and great fun. We will definitely return.Our only complaint was that the on site restaurant ran out of breakfast food on the Sunday, even butter!!! Not sure how that can happen in such a well run site!

Nice but costly

We had a lovely weekend in caravaning in Hidden Valley. There are plenty of activities to keep the children entertained. All the facilities are clean and well maintained. The only downside is that some of the activities are a little bit on the expensive side, the inflatable water course is a bit dear for a 50 minute activity but the children really enjoyed it. Staff were very helpful and nice. Location is great, only a short walk to the village. I would recommend Hidden Valley for a family holiday
