The County Down region

County Down with it's largest town Bangor is one of the six counties that forms beautiful Northern Ireland, the impressive Mourne mountains rise from the coast to heights of 800 metres and more, ideal fro hiking enthusiasts.
Overall a place of rugged coastal scenery with a climate not unlike that of mainland UK, sheltered as is from the full force of the Atlantic winds.


Strangford / Strangford Lough area

Strangford Lough has been designated as Northern Ireland's first Marine Nature Reserve.

The Lough is huge, almost like an inland Sea, it is the largest Sea Lough in the British Isles covering 150 square km in area and over 30km in length.

It is no surprise then that the Lough supports an exceptional range of marine life. 2000 marine animals & plants have been recorded on Strangford Lough making it one of the richest marine environments in Britain.

Its character is equally variable. At times it has a peaceful, almost glass-like quality, echoing its Celtic name, Cuan - `the quiet lough'; on other occasions, its dark waves and powerful tidal currents fully justify its Viking name, Strangford - `the strong fiord.'

350 million cubic metres of water flow in and out of Strangford twice daily, creating an intensive tide of 8 knots. With these strong tidal currents in the Narrows it exposes bedrock covered by filter feeding animals such as elephants ear sponge, hydroids, sea-anemones & soft corals. Dense forests of kelp and seaweed also grow here, creating a wonderful habitat for Seatrout. The rich marine environment ensures these fish have a quick growth rate.

This beautiful and rugged landscape is only 13 miles from Belfast City Centre.

Activities include: sea fishing, boat trips, sailing, diving, horse riding, horse racing, motor bike, cycling, walking, and other adventure activities.
