Beautiful Ballywalter Beach! Lovely spot to stop and appreciate the white sand and the view. There are also some sculptures on the promenade and plenty of good ice cream shops on the sea front too.

Carrowdore Castle Gate

Highlight • Other

Carrowdore Castle Gate is one of the original 19th-century entrance lodges to the Carrowdore Castle estate in County Down. Built in a Gothic style, it features a castellated parapet and turret-like details that echo the look of the main house. Today it stands as one of the most distinctive remnants of the castle complex, marking the historic gateway to the estate.
