Marine & Lawn Slieve Donard

10/10 Excellent
"Once again we loved our stay at the slieve donard. Facilities are fabulous esp the pool and the staff are excellent. It was very busy so a little bit of a wait for breakfast but nothing that bothered us. We had an issue in the bathroom during our stay which wasn’t resolved and was a bit of annoyance but our bill was discounted which we considered fair. We ll be back . It’s our favourite hotel for the children. In"

The beach begins just a short walk from the harbour, offering immediate access to the coastline. This area features a mix of traditional stone cottages and some newer developments, all within easy reach of the sea.

Families will find this area particularly suitable. Staying in the village means you're just moments away from the sandy and shingle beach, superb for children to play and explore. The proximity to the harbour also means easy access to local amenities like small shops and places to eat, making days out on the beach straightforward and convenient.

Couples looking for a relaxing escape will also appreciate the village's coastal location. You can enjoy strolls along the beach, perhaps venturing towards the quieter stretches north or south of the harbour.
How much does a beach hotel in Annalong cost?

The harbour itself is interesting to observe, with fishing boats coming and going, providing a gentle buzz of activity. You can easily spend an afternoon here, enjoying simple seaside fun.

Couples looking for a more expansive coastal experience will enjoy a walk along the beach towards the north, past the harbour wall.

It's a nice spot for a quiet walk, perhaps collecting sea glass or simply enjoying the sea air.
