Dundrum Castle

Reviewed By jade191215

We were the only ones to visit the castle. It is incredible with a lovely view of Dundrum when you climb on top of it, and it is a 7 minute walk from the center of Dundrum.

Murlough National Nature Reserve

Reviewed By machinmad - Norwich, United Kingdom

From the car park we took the right hand boardwalk to the beach then followed the shoreline right round the peninsular and back inland to the road bridge. It was high tide and very wet, but was just manageable . The sea walk was spectacular, as the big waves crashed in. Seals basked on the opposite shore, oblivious to the sound of gunfire from the military firing range. A stunning 2hr circular walk despite the heavy rain on the way back!

Reviewed By Bazalina - Rostrevor, United Kingdom

This visitor centre has everything. All the leaflets and maps for the local area, friendly and helpful staff and a great range of local souvenirs- many made by local artists. I have stopped in several times for a good browse. If you are looking for what to do in the area the staff will point you in the right direction.
