by Steve – June 2025Newcastle is where the Mourne Mountains meet the sea - and it's a lovely combination. The beach is long, the town is laid-back, and there are plenty of cafés and places to eat. Great for walkers, families, or anyone after a relaxing coastal break.
Is it easy to park here?
Is this a place good to visit on a rainy day?
