Lovely looking castle surrounded by a lake and lots of trails for walking and cycling. Unfortunately, the castle is not open to the public and swimming is not allowed in the lake (fishing and boats are fine).

Cykling

This extraordinary castle sits in Castlewellan Forest Park and has a grand view over the lake. From the walking and cycle trail around the lakeside, you can enjoy the fantastic vantage point and admire the castle's turrets.

Built in the mid 1800s, the castle was owned by the Annesley family. Its grounds contain a phenomenal arboretum which has been considerably extended and includes giant sequoias.

The building is now a Christian conference centre and isn't open to the public. It's well worth seeing from the outside though, and the lawns around the lake are a perfect place for a picnic.

Vandring

The ornate Scottish baronial castle built in 1858 is a picturesque part of any route through or around the forest park. Sadly not open for general admission.
