Hillyard House Hotel

Castle Avenue, Castlewellan · Guest House

A small, modern hotel in the centre of Castlewellan, next to the town's forest park and lake.

About Hillyard House Hotel

Hillyard House occupies a spot on Castle Avenue in the middle of Castlewellan, close enough to the entrance of Castlewellan Forest Park to walk to the lake, arboretum and Peace Maze in a few minutes. The building has been fitted out in a modern style rather than traditional country house décor, with 20 en-suite rooms across a range of sizes including family rooms and an accessible room.

The Yard Restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, and Mrs Coleman's Bar keeps a more traditional pub atmosphere, with an afternoon tea service also available.

Castlewellan makes a quieter alternative to Newcastle as a base, roughly ten minutes away by car, and puts guests close to the northern approaches to the Mournes as well as the forest park on the doorstep.
