Carrowdore village is the ideal spot for families and those who wish to be able to avail of the beautiful countryside surroundings whilst having the convenience of Carrowdore Primary School, Strangford Integrated College which includes secondary education with grammar stream and various recreational clubs close by.

Work has started on the new state of the art Strangford College which is only a short walk from The Paddocks making it a huge asset to the village. For those who desire ease of access to commuter routes to Belfast and beyond, The Paddocks is only 6 miles from Newtownards and equally the same distance from Bangor with both neighbouring larger towns offering main commuter routes and public transport links to Belfast City Centre. The location also benefits from of the North Down Coast and Strangford Lough on either side.

This wonderful new development of beautifully detailed homes provides the perfect marriage of privacy and location, offering the rare opportunity for "country village living" just a few miles from the busy towns of Bangor and Newtownards.

The village at Carrowdore has in recent years had the addition of a large Eurospar with filling station and some local businesses that include a butchers, coffee shop, churches, community centre and a play park.
