Local information

  • Lying on the southwest corner of Strangford Lough in beautiful County Down, Killyleagh is a plantation town and port accented by the stunning 13th century Killyleagh Castle – one of Ireland's oldest inhabited castles. The subject lands are located approximately 2.9 miles North of Killyleagh with excellent frontage onto the Ringdufferin Road. The area has a reputation for productive, high-quality farmland at low altitude and has a well-developed agricultural infrastructure, including several agricultural machinery merchants.
  • The land also conveniently lies a short distance from Killinchy (4 miles) and Downpatrick (8 miles), which offer a wide range of amenities. Downpatrick is situated at the junction of the A7 (Downpatrick to Saintfield and Belfast) road, the A25 (Downpatrick to Newry and Dublin) road and the A2 coast road. Within a 30 minutes' drive from Belfast, the location serves as a commuter town for a large number of people.
  • The land comprises the former Ringdufferin Golf Course and is situated behind the former clubhouse, which has since been extended and converted to form Ringdufferin Nursing Home. A key feature of the land is the panoramic views of Strangford Lough, which is the largest sea inlet in the British Isles and was Northern Ireland's first Marine Nature Reserve. Strangford Lough is renowned as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Special Scientific Interest, with six National Nature Reserves within its reaches. The lough is home to over 2,000 species of marine animals and internationally important flocks of wildfowl and wading birds converge there in the winter. Strangford Lough holds a very important geographical location within Ireland for the breeding of common seals.
  • Local schooling is available at Killinchy Primary School, Killyleagh Integrated Primary school, St Mary's Primary School, St Colmcille's High School, St. Mary's High School, and St Patrick's Grammar School.
