Situated in the heart of St Patricks country in South Down, Creeghduff Lodge overlooks the rolling countryside with views towards the Mourne Mountains. A family run bed and breakfast, we offer two spacious upstairs family rooms with en-suite facilities on their own dedicated 1st floor. Each room has its own dedicated fridge in the guest communal area. Breakfast options comprise a full Ulster fry or a continental breakfast. There are numerous dining options with good pubs and restaurants close by. We have plenty of off-road parking and a large enclosed garden for children to play in and visitors to relax in. We are convenient to many outdoor attractions including The Mourne Mountains, Tollymore and Castlewellan forest parks, Murlough Nature Reserve and Tyrella beach. For golfers, the Royal County Down Golf Course in Newcastle is 5 miles away. Attractions of historic interest include The St. Patrick's Centre, Down Cathedral and Saul as well as several National Trust properties. On a wet day there is Exploris Aquarium, Down museum and Arts Centre and Down Leisure Centre in Downpatrick. We have 2 outdoor (unheated) kennels so can accommodate up to 2 family dogs per kennel. Please contact the property owners, by phone, in advance to reserve.
