Hugh McCanns Newcastle

The feel

McCann’s is situated on Newcastle’s Central Promenade, between the Mourne Mountains and the sea, with panoramic views of both. The building is 200yrs old and has been sympathetically restored to preserve the old world charm, yet with all modern comforts and a fabulous design to take advantage of a stunning location.

We are a family business that has been in the hospitality industry for 40 years. Over the years what was once simply a pub and restaurant, became a sought after venue for birthdays, christenings etc… and after a recent extension has now become a stunning wedding venue licensed to hold civil ceremonies for over 100 guests.

The wedding suite is comprised of three linked areas – the loft bar which overlooks Dundrum Bay with loads of character exposed brick and stonework, and a huge open fire; the function room which can seat up to 130 with large picture windows giving uninterrupted views of the Mourne Mountains; and finally a private South West facing terrace which is popular for a champagne reception, and a perfect spot for photos!

Newcastle which is an hour from Belfast , and just 1hr 20mins from Dublin has been transformed by recent regeneration, and a new promenade has brought many people to the town and turned, this small town into one of the most sought after resorts in the country.
