A comfortable base for exploring

There is a great choice of outdoor pursuits nearby, including beaches, heritage sites, National Trust properties, walks, cycle trails and outdoor activity centres. Excellent fishing, sailing and golfing are also just a short drive away.

This area has become a centre for film making, so you might choose to visit some of the locations in Castle Ward where Game of Thrones was filmed. Or there’s always the option of cosying up in front of the log fire with a glass of wine and a good book.
