The old Boat House has all the charm and quaintness you could dream of for a stay away from home. With beautiful views over Carlingford lough you wont want to leave.
My husband and I are friendly outgoing people with plenty of help and recommendations to offer for your stay in Carlingford.
The Old Boat House is less than a 2 minute walk to all amenities of Carlingford. We have a number of walking paths and hiking trails for those that need to get out and about and also an adventure center for adults and children. Carlingford is a beautiful historical village that will have you coming back time again. We are located below St Johns Castle with spectacular views over the lough.
