Newcastle, County Down boasts a superb coastal landscape on the north-eastern edge of the splendid Mourne Mountains. Newcastle strikes me as a small town trying very hard to offer visitors a venue in keeping with its surroundings. Each time I visit I see positive signs of improvement and of course the friendly local people. The Avoka Hotel sits in an... More

We always stay in Newcastle at the Avoca because of the great location, clean pleasant rooms, made to order breakfast and especially the friendly staff including Susan and her family which run the hotel. (Love to watch people on the promenade from the window.) The... More

This hotel was easy to find and provided a good service at a very reasonable price. Just a pity we had to walk outside in the pouring rain to get to the bar! More

Positive: - the hotel is on seafront, and close to the main street - staff are friendly Negative: - rooms need refurbishment - cannot drink in the rooms (not even a bottle of wine), but the staffs are flexible - breakfast is not buffet style, therefore not much selection Conclusion: Average quality accommodation for one night only, with good location,...

The rooms were basic, but very clean and comfortable, representing great value for the £70 per night for two people. We were able to park our car in the car park which was great as we... More
