Blog (November 2023) - Visit Mourne Mountains

Give a gift and spend local at the same time in this season for giving.  Whether it's a relaxing mid week break that you've been dreaming of, a day of Giant Adventures full of outdoor activities or a quiet night in a cosy restaurant or pub, this decision is totally up to you! 

Start planning gifts and vouchers early.  Gifts perfect for any occasion, be it birthdays, Christmas or treat yourself just because it's nearly Friday.

Everyone loves Christmas, the aesthetic of it all, the colours, smells and cosiness. With the long dark nights and the colder mornings, it is important to make the most of the winter weather.  

Christmas just calls for an afternoon tea in the beautiful surroundings of the Mourne Mountains, Ring of Gullion and Strangford Lough. 

Northern Ireland is home to the beautiful Mourne Mountains and Ring of Gullion, located in the Mourne Gullion Strangford Gepark,  it offers a stunning range of Mountain peaks.

One thing to enjoy about the dark nights and chilly evenings rolling in is that they create the perfect ambiance. At this time of year, you can enjoy warming, seasonal menus made with delicious local ingredients across the Mourne Mountains and Ring of Gullion. 

There's something magical about the run up to Christmas and we have lots of events taking place in the area. Here are just a few dates for your diary.
