According to one source, the historic Slieve Donard Hotel overlooks a beach where the spirit of a woman is said to ride on horseback on nights when there is a full moon.
Another source revealed that locals in Newcastle say that the fine hotel itself is also haunted. The story goes that a child fell to her death many, many years ago, and that her distraught mother followed her. They claim the child’s laughing can sometimes be heard in the corridors when the bedrooms have been empty. My source claims to have heard it.
