About this property
Cosy barn conversion in the Mournes
This delightful and unique property offers the perfect blend of traditional and contemporary in a bijou barn conversion in an original farm courtyard.
Nestled within a farm at the foot of the Mournes, Jim’s barn @ The Rocks offers a clean, cosy and peaceful base to explore the Mourne Mountains, to try out the local golf courses, to trace your heritage or to visit with family and friends.
As a self-catering barn, you'll find everything you need for a perfect stay. The kitchen has a fridge, a hob, an oven, a kettle, a small freezer, a microwave and all the usual utensils.
Jim’s barn is the perfect snug place to relax, particularly after a day of mountain walking! Pop something tasty in the oven, soak in the bath and then curl up by the stove to read a book or watch a movie on your favourite streaming service.
There is one bedroom in Jim’s barn which is tastefully decorated with a comfy double bed. A travel cot can be provided upon request.
The sofa converts into a small double bed, again, please let us know if this is required and we can provide fresh bedding.
There is one bathroom, which has a toilet and sink as well as a bath with integrated shower.
Linen and towels are all included to make your stay more enjoyable.
Jim’s Barn @ The Rocks is just below Slieve Binnian, by car we are situated 15 minutes from Newcastle, 5 mins from Annalong, 5 mins from Kilkeel, 10 minutes from Cranfield and 2 minutes from Slieve Binnian.

We look forward to seeing you!
