Battlebridge Caravan & Camping Park


We installed four pods on our site in August 2012 and they immediately became part of the landscape among natural bogland overlooking the magnificent River Shannon. The pods are very pleasing to the eye drawn to natural beauty and with the swift and uncomplicated installation process, they immediately appeared as if they had belonged to our landscape forever. They have wintered well and were very cosy for all of our brave winter glampers! Having overnighted in one ourselves, we understand why our guests hate to leave them and we are looking forward to ongoing demand for a taste of tranquility at the water's edge in 2013.

Best Regards, Eilish Beirne, Battlebridge Caravan & Camping.

“Glamorous Glamping- Oh Yes!” - Just back from an amazing weekend in the new Eco pods, I think we were the second lot to stay in them. They are fabulous, beautifully kitted out and have everything you could need from comfortable beds and clean sheets to wine on arrival, power points, tea making facilities , fairy lights etc. A group of 11 stayed in the 4 pods and I can honestly say we can't wait to return- that's if we can get a booking, I hear they are booking up fast... Eilish is very proud of her Eco-pods and rightly so, she decorated them lovingly herself. ...The Shannon river runs right on front of the eco pods, some of our group jumped in the next morning for the cure. Not much more I can say, I thoroughly enjoyed the weekend. Well done to Eilish and her team- I recommend the new Eco-Pods.

Stayed in Battlebridge last weekend for a hen do. I was the organiser of the party and we wanted something fun, classy and different. Battlebridge was definitely a good choice. The eco-pods were comfortable, warm, and really cute. ...It was great to have a little space and umbrella outside the eco-pod. Our party loved them - loved having our own space and privacy as well.

Glenwood Studio Camping Pod


I love my tent but stumbled upon "the pod" this summer and loved it just as much! Three of us slept in it comfortably and the whole "glamping" experience was fun and hassle free. Staying in the pod is a great option at any time of the year and it would really come into its own in Autumn/Winter when it's just too cold and wet for camping. Give it a go, you'll love it -)

We stumbled upon the "Pod" on the quest for an alternative camping experience - and we were not disappointed! A stone's throw from Littor Strand, our stay in the Pod was one of the most memorable weekends I've had. David & Rebecca could not do enough to make our stay enjoyable. I'll definitely be back!
