Introducing Carlingford
The Cooley Peninsula’s mountains and views display themselves to dramatic effect in Carlingford (Cairlinn). This pretty three-street village, with its cluster of whitewashed houses, nestles on Carlingford Lough, beneath Slieve Foye (587m). Hard though it is to believe, not much of this was appreciated until the late 1980s, when the villagers got together to show what can be done to revive a dying community. The story of their efforts is vividly told in the heritage centre. Today this is an excellent stop on your journey to/from the north, particularly on long summer evenings, when you’ll pub-hop along the stony streets.
