Planes, trains and soon to be plenty of automobiles too.
If the sight of a Boeing 767 plane in the middle of a field in a small town in Enniscrone wasn’t already strange enough, it’s now been joined by three train carriages as the Quirky Glamping campsite begins to take shape.
After the three carriages arrived at Dublin Port late on Sunday night, a convoy of trucks transported them across the country overnight before arriving to fanfare from some bright eyed onlookers early on Monday morning.

Once offloaded at 12pm on Monday, the carriages will be housed in section of the campsite known as ‘The Train Yard’ and will join the Boeing 767 plane that arrived in the seaside Sligo town a little earlier this year.
The brainchild of local businessman David McGowan, Quirky Glamping will also feature a bus stop with ten double decker buses, a taxi rank with eight taxi units that each sleep 1-2 people and a marina with four boats that will be ideal for couples and small groups.
