This place is perfect for those who are keen Walkers, Cyclists, Mountain bikers, budding photographers and those who wish to get away from it all.

The beautiful seaside town of Newcastle is a 30 min drive away. Warrenpoint & Rostrevor are approx 15 mins drive, so we are very central location to the surrounding towns/attractions.
