Experience Tranquil Tipi Camping in Laragh, Co. Wicklow's Wilderness

Set just outside the charming town of Rathdrum in County Wicklow, Ireland, the Tipi Deluxe for 2 offers a rare blend of rustic wilderness camping and comfortable simplicity. Situated within a privately owned woodland near Laragh, this campsite allows visitors to step away from the clamor of everyday life and immerse themselves in an authentic outdoor escape. Here, the surrounding forest and the gentle murmur of the bordering river set the scene for an unforgettable experience under canvas.

The accommodation centers on spacious Norwegian canvas Tipis, each measuring approximately 4 meters in diameter and standing 3.5 meters high, supported by a single pole. These well-crafted Tipis provide ample room for two occupants to sleep comfortably on included mats. Interior lighting options are available with a refundable deposit, allowing your nights to be gently illuminated without detracting from the natural ambiance. This setup harmoniously balances the primitive charm of camping with thoughtful amenities to keep you comfortable.

The site’s highlights include eco-friendly composting toilets, maintaining a minimal environmental footprint while providing necessary convenience. Gathering spots around outdoor communal firepits offer rustic cooking areas complete with log seating—perfect for sharing a meal, roasting marshmallows, or simply reflecting by the fire under starry skies. While the location invites guests to unplug, practical considerations like free onsite parking and proximity to local stores in Rathdrum ensure ease and convenience.

Visitors are encouraged to bring their own sleeping bags, warm clothing, waterproofs, and camp cooking gear, though catering packages such as BBQs and breakfasts can be pre-arranged to enhance the experience. The natural surroundings support a peaceful retreat where the only sounds are birdsong and flowing water, an ideal setting for anyone looking to disconnect and recharge in nature.

Dogs are welcome on leash within the grounds but not inside the Tipis, highlighting the balance between inclusivity and preservation of tranquility. As firewood collection is prohibited to protect local flora and fauna, guests rely on the site's firepits, helping preserve the woodland’s delicate ecosystem.

Laragh and Rathdrum provide a gateway to Wicklow’s iconic landscapes, including nearby Wicklow Mountains National Park, with opportunities for hiking and river adventures. This camp experience stands apart by offering a solid gateway into Ireland’s rugged outdoors with a uniquely peaceful and private setting. Tipi Deluxe for 2 captures the essence of a modern wild getaway—brisk days, crisp nights, and the comfort of a home away from home in canvas form.
