Carlingford is a magical village, full of character and is one of the best preserved medieval villages in Ireland. Raided by the Vikings in the 8th & 9th Centuries, historical records show that the Vikings occupied Carlingford Lough. They may have used the sheltered harbour as a temporary base, though, this is unclear as no factual evidence, apart from the name Carlingford has been recorded.
With its history and narrow Medieval streets, lanes that lead to the harbour, majestic Slieve Foye mountain and the famous mountains of Mourne across the lough all combine to make Carlingford unique in Ireland.

I organised my friends stag (We are based in the UK) and he wanted to have an adventure stag somewhere in Ireland.
Visit Carlingford helped me organsie the entire party from start to finish – from accomodation to food to activities. They were so friendly and approachable and provided a quick and efficient service.
I’m delighted to see that they are advertising on HagParty.ie
