Strangford Village is set in area of outstanding natural beauty, overlooking Strangford Lough, this picturesque village is full of charm in the seaside terrace stone houses which enjoy a stunning view across the Lough to Portaferry.
Strangford has six national nature reserves within its reach and a number of historical attractions such as Nondrum Abbey and Monastic site (0044 28 90 543 037), which includes a small stone church and the remains of a round tower dating back to the 11th Century.
Kilclief tower house is worth a visit, which was built as a residence of the Bishop of Down, dating to around 1413.
