About Avoca Hotel

Avoca Hotel suits travellers who want the Mournes and the sea within easy reach but still like a proper bar and restaurant to come back to. It's about 1.19 miles from Newcastle Beach, with Slieve Donard and the Mourne AONB close by, making it a practical base for walkers, cyclists and anyone keen on a day outdoors followed by a hot dinner rather than a self-catering kitchen.

The hotel has 15 rooms, including family rooms, all en-suite, with some looking out over the garden, the sea or the mountains. Breakfast is served on site, along with kids' meals and packed lunches for early starts, and there's a garden, picnic area and outdoor seating for slower mornings. Drinks can be brought to the room, and the bar and restaurant cover most evenings without needing to go elsewhere.

Beyond the AONB and Slieve Donard, the surrounding area offers golf, fishing, horse riding and watersports, plus pubs, restaurants and entertainment nearby for evenings out. Free parking is available close by, and the hotel also runs meeting rooms and business services for those combining leisure with work. Laundry service and concierge support round out a stay geared towards convenience as much as scenery.

Guests mention this hotel offers beautiful, quirky rooms, often with sea views, and delicious food including excellent breakfasts and hearty main courses. They also highlight the friendly, helpful staff and the great value, with some stays including meals.

Some reviews mention the food can be inconsistent.
