Mourne Mountains holidays by coach & flight
Peeking through the clouds, the mighty Mountains of Mourne are a photographer’s dream, not to mention a haven for smugglers in the 18th century! This is the perfect excursion to take in some truly breathtaking landscapes and a trio of pretty towns.
We discover the ancient town of Hillsborough, complete with a beautiful castle and lovely lakes, as well as Downpatrick with its rich history; rumour has it that this was the burial place of St Patrick himself.
Nestled at the foot of the Mountains of Mourne lies Newcastle; a quaint Victorian seaside resort with golden sands and magnificent views of Northern Ireland’s highest mountain, Slieve Donard, tumbling down to the ocean.
