    You’ll get an extra big living room with your booking, which is super useful for me and my parents. Sharon is a very nice host. She even took us to the farm and reservoir for a tour!

    I heartily recommend the Auld Shop and pub. If I could give it 12 out of 10, I would. The host is a delight, and couldn't have been more helpful, even accommodating my late arrival. It's cosy, spotless, beautifully presented and excellent value. ...

    Lovely, fully kitted-out private annexe in Sharon's house, which had everything I needed. A comfortable and nicely furnished space in a great location for access to the Mourne mountains. A nice, country pub across the road for food and drinks....

Sharon
My house is a recently refurbished old farm house in a quiet village right beside the beautiful Mourne Mountains.
I have 20+ years experience in Hospitality and I can tailor make your stay to be a once in a lifetime experience. Please contact me if you require any further local information.
There are a few houses close by but a very quiet neighbourhood. There is the local pub just across the road and they do great food, pints & cocktails. There is free, private off street parking and a bus stop just outside on the main Rathfriland to Castlewellan and Newry to Downpatrick / Newcastle route.
