If you keep going on past White Rocks for about a mile you come to Magheracross carpark just before Dunluce Castle, Iv used it a few times with no problems always a few other vans about, I count it better than White Rocks & it has great views over the coast..Just another 1 for you to look at, its in the review section if you have a look... :up:

just back from 2 nights in portrush.arrived on saturday afternoon and headed straight for the Aires in Sandhill drive.it was pretty busy 2 spaces left so i parked up(had to use the ramps on one side to level the van)headed out for a walk around town and ended up in the harbour bar.it was really busy but served quick enough at the bar.the guiness was mighty and at £3.50 a pint great value.stayed for a few then headed for some fish and chips.got sorted at the dolphin chipper and it was fine.got a descent sleep in the carpark,quiet enough and no boy racers.next morning we headed out to find breakfast and stumbled upon annes teahouse at the ranmore end of town.great breakfast,friendly ataff and a nice atmosphere,large fry and a large coffee £6.95.we decided to head to the white rocks to find a spot for our second night.on arrival it was very cramped and also signs up for no overnight parkingo we moved on up the road about a mile towards dunluce castle to Magheracross as advised by DILLGAF.what a lovley spot with great ocean views but again signs up for no overnight parking.we had a coffee and decided to head back to Sandhill drive a park up for the night.when we got back it was packed out so we had to park up in the coach bays and it was fine.there were around 15 vans on the sat nite including a few traveller transits at the bottom of the carpark but all was good.toilets at Sandhill are porta cabins but clean and plenty of hot water.had breakfast again in Annes tearoom and again excellent.scrambled eggs were top notch.all in all had a nice time and will head back again later in the year.D

decided to head back to Sandhill drive a park up for the night.when we got back it was packed out so we had to park up in the coach bays and it was fine.there were around 15 vans on the sat nite



Darren I think we may have pulled in beside you on sat night in the coach park at approx 5.30pm while waiting for a friend to meet up. We then moved on to have dinner in Kellys before stopping for the night at Whiterocks where another camper was already there.
