Originally built around 200 years ago, the Mc Court family were the last family to live here, so we have always known it as "Mc Courts".
Mc Courts Cottage is approximately 2 miles away from the centre of Hilltown village, yet you feel like your miles away from anywhere!
Overlooking Newry city from afar and the magnificent rolling hills of the Mourne countryside. This place is perfect for those who are keen Walkers, Cyclists, Mountain bikers, budding photographers and those who wish to get away from it all.
Western Style horse back riding is available right here in Hilltown @ Laneway Lodge.
Newry is but a 20 min drive away, as is Castlewellan. The beautiful seaside town of Newcastle is a 30 min drive away. Warrenpoint & Rostrevor are approx 15 mins drive, so we are very central location to the surrounding towns/attractions.
Para-gliders love to use this location throughout the year, so if you are lucky enough you can watch them from the front garden, it really is a fantastic sight.
Altogether this place can sleep 8 people comfortably.
The main cottage can be booked alone for groups of 6 or less
