About Ganaway Caravan and Camping Park
Ganaway Caravan and Camping Park lies just inland from Millisle and Ballywalter on the Ards Peninsula, a Camping and Caravanning Club site set among mature trees on the site of a former country estate. The park has a settled, established feel, with generously sized pitches and enough tree cover to break up the site into smaller, more private areas rather than one open field.
Electric hook-up pitches are available for caravans and motorhomes, alongside space for tents, and the site has a well-kept shower and toilet block along with a small shop for essentials during peak months. There is no swimming pool or on-site playground, and the appeal here is the quieter, more traditional camping experience rather than family entertainment facilities, though dogs are welcome and the surrounding lanes make for easy on-lead walks.
Millisle's sandy beach and the Ards Peninsula's coastal villages are a short drive away, and the park is well placed for exploring Strangford Lough's eastern shore and the ferry crossing to Portaferry. Belfast is around 40 minutes by car via the A20, making Ganaway a workable option for visitors who want a genuinely rural, coastal-adjacent base while still keeping the city within easy reach for an evening out.
