Slieve Donard Resort & Spa
About Slieve Donard Resort & Spa
The Slieve Donard is a Victorian railway hotel of extraordinary grandeur, built in 1897 at the foot of the Mourne Mountains beside the Irish Sea. With Royal County Down Golf Club's 18th green literally in the hotel garden — separated only by a low stone wall — it is the only hotel in the world that can truly claim to be part of the world's number one golf course.
The red-brick towers, white-capped mountains behind, and the Irish Sea to the front create one of Ireland's most photographed hotel settings. Inside, the Great Hall and Oak Restaurant deliver Victorian opulence combined with modern comfort and Northern Irish hospitality.
