Church Gates, Annalong, is a luxury home in a traditional farmyard setting with attractive gardens front and back, including a wooded area. It was completed in July 2012. It’s on the main Newcastle to Kilkeel Road, five minutes walk from the centre of Annalong with great sea views and within easy reach of the Mourne Mountains behind.

A traditional farmhouse front gives way to a modern double-height glass box with open plan living and kitchen space leading to a cosy front room with open fire. It sleeps eight people comfortably. There are three large en-suite double bedrooms, one on the ground floor; a fourth bedroom has two children’s single beds and there’s a family bathroom. Oil fired central heating and a wood-burning stove.

Ample parking for four cars; a built-in barbecue and extensive lockable out houses for storing bikes, golf clubs, canoes etc.

We think this is the perfect base for families to explore the best south Down has to offer, or just stay in and enjoy a fabulous house.
