Our Host Emily, emailed me the day before we arrived with the details how to get to the house & how to access the keys. I needed to ask a few more questions before our arrival and she got back to us very quickly. This weekend was a tonic for me and my friends, a group of mums looking to escape the craziness of everyday life. The weather was cold, windy and it rained all weekend...but we didn't care. Everything we needed was at Oaktree, a great kitchen to cook in, roaring fire, games and streaming services. We all had enough space to have our own time to relax and a common space in the kitchen to come together. Emily was an excellent host and was available when you needed her. We cant wait to run away again to Oaktree Manor

An amazing place to stay to celebrate a family birthday. Such a beautiful property for our reunion, with stunning communal spaces downstairs for everyone to gather together. The main reception room has plenty of seating and is equipped with a fully functioning TV. The kitchen is well stocked with everything required to cater for a large group, with a dining room to use to enjoy meals in a gorgeous setting. The bedrooms are fabulous, and decorated perfectly to make our stay feel even more special. The location was excellent too, and perfect for outdoor activities for all the mixed ages of the group. The youngest ones explored the local Castlewellan area and lake, forest, playground and Peace Maze, while more accomplished hikers took advantage of the close proximity to the Mourne Mountains. The house is also just ten minute drive to the charming coastal town of Newcastle, and there are ample shops nearby. Michael was a great host, and on hand from the start to get us set up and offer advice on local area. He really went above and beyond to accommodate us and we can't thank him enough for his help in making this a memorable trip for us all. We couldn't recommend Annsborough House more.

Question to what did we like? That would be everything! From the first moment of check in to our departure. We would more than highly recommend a stay at the Avoca Hotel. Not only for its amazing location directly across from the Irish Sea and walking distance to experience a lot of Newcastle and access to surrounding sites, but to its most amazing staff! The hotel is so very inviting and offers a very unique environment that can only enhance your visit to Newcastle. The hotel itself and the rooms are very clean with all necessary amenities provided. Tastefully decorated with attention to its upkeep which will only add to your Northern Irland experience. Upon our arrival and settling into our initial room with Annie at reception, we were aware of rooms that had a little seating area in a bay window that faced the sea to which we did not have. With a request to have that window seating Annie graciously took the time to let us view other rooms. Although nothing was available that night, Annie further left messages to our requests for her manager Nicola that may be addressed the next day. To our utter delight Siobhan at reception showed us a most spectacular room with a sea view and large bay window seating area to which they could accommodate us moving to. Siobhan said that they want everyone to be the happiest they could be with their stay at the Avoca Hotel. A true testimonial to that! Beyond that, the breakfast was wonderful with a variety of options for both food and coffee/tea and served with a smile and warmth from Jack. A wonderful way to start your day! And then after a full day of sight seeing you can return to the hotel and enjoying a cocktail at the well stocked bar served by the friendliest staff to include Leona, Mohit and Injaz before preparing for your evening out. We cannot say enough about the Avoca Hotel. We had an amazing stay in Newcastle and praise manager Nicola and her team in being a major factor in that!!!

My wife's family stayed here for our wedding. Owner is absolutely lovely. 5 star hospitality. My wife's family are not from Ireland, but said that this one of the best places they stayed while in Ireland. Place was newly renovated, with a gorgeous setting, nice facilities and breakfast. Complementary drinks were such a nice touch that everyone appreciated, as well as the honesty box system for additional drinks, because there are no nearby shops.

The Fry was excellent! Generous portion. The eating area was lovely. The gentleman who worked there was friendly. Everything was great! The pub had atmosphere. We enjoyed our pints. The workers at the pub were nice. The building has character. The room was very clean. It was great to park in front on the road. No complaints.

    Castlewellan is perfectly placed to explore the forest park, complete with peace maze! tollymore, silent valley and the seaside of Newcastle. There are some lovely scenic drives with plenty of pubs along the way. In the town there are some goods bars and restaurants, Maginns, Hillyard House both serve excellent food that is also good value and there are various takeaways too. Mourne Archery is a great activity whether in a couple or family group we had a wonderful time and Katy the instructor made the whole thing fun and informative, especially shooting at the balloons.

    This is a friendly town with lots of amenities.

    This is a friendly town with lots of amenities. If you turn right out of the hotel (which is in a side street) there are beautiful walks in castle grounds and a walled garden which is being renovated for reopening in the autumn. All around you are the beautiful mountains of Mourne. A trip to Newcastle will show you where 'the mountains come down to the sea' in the words of Percy French.
