Normally we only use campsites if we need to. We have no kids with us and prefer somewhere quiet. I don’t Mind at all to pay for Aire or campsite as needed. Last week we had 2 nights in Kilkenny at tree grove. I have to give them full credit. Well managed, clean, quiet, it was the most we have paid yet for a campsite, 58 euro for 2 nights with electricity, I found it safe, everyone well distanced, and it felt right. We had been once late last year, maybe October, I remember there was frost, i think he only charged 20 for the night. Normally in Kilkenny we stay in wolf tone car park ( it’s on the app). We were there at weekend about 3 weeks ago, price for parking went up slightly to 5 euro for 24 hours, but the number of 20 somethings coming in cars at night already drunk, and openly talking cocaine on the street put me off. Probably in reality, security is the number one need for us all, often wild camping is ok, but sometimes it’s also good to support the campsites
