Snowdrop Cottage is a beautiful Irish cottage set in the heart of the Mourne Mountains with sweeping views of Slieve Donard – Northern Irelands highest peak. The cottage is perfect for a relaxing family getaway sleeping up to 10 people and equipped with a hot tub which overlooks rolling fields and the local sheep.
Enter Snowdrop cottage and spend the evenings cooking on your large gas stove perfect for family dinners. After dinner curl up on the sofa in front of your open fire or wood-burning stove, play board games or watch the sunset over the Mourne mountains. In the morning awake feeling refreshed and enjoy some time in your hot tub as you watch the local sheep and lambs grazing in the fields, it’s the perfect way to start your day.
Perfectly situated for a beach or mountain holiday close to too many attractions. Get lost in the many walks and trails of the Mourne mountains, horse ride on the beach, visit a local traditional Irish pub or explore “Game of Thrones” sites including Riverrun, Winterfell, and the Haunted Forest close by. For those that like to be pampered visit the nearby health spa and steak house at the end of the road.
