Our pods are set on a hill top site of this family-owned 17th-century castle with amazing views of the ocean. It’s a lovely place to stay, with friendly staff on-site. The castle is home to Randal, Viscount Dunluce, son of the 14th Earl of Antrim and his family. The team at Glenarm Castle will look after you during your stay. Ocean View Pods opened in July 2019 with amazing ocean views, but also overlooking the castle estate. With self-check-in/out you are safe, secure, but can create your own holiday experience. Camp fire packs are recommended. The host will have everything set up for before your arrival and will only come on site if required.

These unique holiday pods offer the perfect rural getaway along the Causeway Coastal Route. They're cosy, fully furnished and have all the comforts of home including electric, running water, mini fridge and heating. Plus, they're located with ocean views and looking across our stunning estate. The pod set up is for 2 adults and 2 kids with a double bed and bunk beds suitable for 15 years and under (under 5ft5) and is open all year round.
