The Fort: Down

A luxurious country house with beautiful Georgian yard.

The Fort is a collection of buildings which has grown and adapted during more than a thousand years of history in the beautiful "basket of eggs" drumlin landscape of County Down.

Located only half an hour from Belfast, this tranquil setting offers outstanding living, potential home-working and leisure accommodation for a family which wishes to get away from city bustle yet stay within easy reach. It will particularly suit a family interested in equestrian or sailing pursuits.

The Main House sits above an 18th century yard on an elevated site, with breathtaking, unspoilt views in every direction especially towards the west and the setting sun.

It has been extensively and sensitively rebuilt by its present owners in the style of a Victorian cottage, with a bedroom wing added four years ago.

At the heart of the property sits the fort itself, an early medieval cashel or stone-embanked rath, evidence of the central place of this historic setting within the farming community and rural landscape of East Down since time immemorial.
