Dundrum Crowned Best Place to Live in Northern Ireland for 2025.

The charming coastal village of Dundrum, Co Down, has been named the Best Place to Live in Northern Ireland for 2025 by the prestigious Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide. The accolade places Dundrum at the very top of the regional list, ahead of strong contenders like Holywood and Portstewart.

This annual guide celebrates communities across the UK that offer the best quality of life, based on a wide range of factors including schools, transport, broadband speeds, culture, green spaces and community spirit.

Dundrum’s win is a testament to its stunning natural surroundings, thriving local food scene and growing popularity among homebuyers seeking a mix of coastal charm and accessibility.
