A Long Weekend Campervan Trip Through the Mournes and South Down

Looking for a campervan trip that swaps the crowds for something quieter without sacrificing the scenery? This route takes you through the Mourne Mountains and along the South Down coast, through Newry, Rostrevor, Newcastle, and out to the Ards Peninsula. It works especially well if you want a mix of walking, coastal stops, and small town exploring — with enough flexibility to take it at whatever pace suits you. Less well known than the Causeway Coast but just as rewarding, and a route that tends to surprise people who thought they already knew Northern Ireland.
