We’ve completed 6 very successful years for this event. Covid came and forced us to miss the last 2 years. And with being a very busy day in a confined space, we’ll skip this year and re-assess next year.

Thank you to; - to all the craftworkers who supported us year after year, the many loyal returning customers, Santa for taking time out on his very busy schedule, the Carlingford choir & brass band and all of us making it happen.

However, we are also excited to bring back the Christmas Dinner Take away this year. We will be posting the Christmas Dinner menu soon. So stay tuned! ✨

Ghan House is also perfect for corporate events. We have a choice of 3 unique conference rooms all have natural daylight and free wifi.

Hands-on cookery & wine tasting here at Ghan House can be incorporated into your team building.
We can provide LCD projector, flip charts, photocopying and printing.

In addition David at Escape Rooms just 200 metres away provides a fun group Escape Rooms experience (we’ve done it – we loved it!) and they also provide bicycle hire along with Joie & Richard at On Yer Bike! down at The Marina.

For a guided walk on the Mountain or Medieval Carlingford, Clodagh at Anam Tours knows the mountain better than the wild horses & goats.

The Heritage Centre can also provide guided walks of the town & King John’s Castle – which was built in 1210, but recent discoveries over the last 10yrs by the OPW has revealed artifacts pre-dating this time!
