About Delamont Country Park Caravan Site
Delamont Country Park sits on the shores of Strangford Lough near Killyleagh, its touring site set within an established country park of woodland walks, a walled garden and a huge timber adventure playground built around a Viking longship theme. The park is run by the Camping and Caravanning Club but welcomes non-members, and pitches are laid out on level grass with good spacing between them, giving a quieter feel than many commercial sites of similar size.
Facilities include electric hook-ups across the touring pitches, modern shower and toilet blocks, a small on-site shop for basics, and a chargeable dump station for motorhomes. Dogs are welcome throughout the park's walking trails, which loop through mixed woodland and along the lough shore, and the park's high tower viewpoint gives one of the best outlooks over Strangford Lough's drumlin islands in the county. Tents, caravans and motorhomes are all catered for, though there is no static glamping accommodation on site.
The park makes a good base for exploring the Ards Peninsula and the National Trust properties around Strangford village, including Castle Ward, while Belfast itself is a straightforward 45-minute drive north via Downpatrick and the A22. Downpatrick, with its cathedral and Saint Patrick heritage sites, is the nearest town for shops and restaurants, around ten minutes away by car.
