Lakes & Mountains
Located at the foot of the mighty Mourne Mountains, the resort is the ideal spot for enjoying a range of adventures outdoors.

The atmospheric woods of Tollymore also featured in HBO’s record-breaking epic saga Game of Thrones, as did several other natural sites around the area – including Castle Ward, which was the setting for iconic Winterfell, home of the House Stark.
