If you are looking for a coastal town where you can enjoy the local scenery, craic and history in equal measure then Carlingford is the place for you. Located in the North East of Ireland on the Cooley Peninsula, you are just a stone’s throw (or quick boat trip) away from Northern Ireland.The town is perfectly situated between Carlingford Lough and Slieve Foyle mountain.
The town boasts some outstanding medieval architecture and is famed for its oyster farms which you can sample at the local restaurants.It may look like a sleepy, picturesque town but it’s extremely popular with stag and hen dos as there are plenty of pubs to choose from and there is always a party to be had.
