Carnfunnock Country Park, Coastal recreational park in County Antrim, Northern Ireland.

The 191-hectare park features mixed woodland sections, maintained gardens, walking paths, and stretches along the North Channel coastline near Larne.

The Agnew family obtained the land lease from the Marquess of Donegall in 1823, establishing agricultural activities in this fertile region.

The park contains shell middens and Droagh motte archaeological sites, indicating centuries of human settlement in the surrounding area.

The park operates daily from 9 AM until dusk during spring and summer, with shorter hours from 9 AM to 4:30 PM in autumn and winter.

The park features a hedge maze shaped like Northern Ireland, containing 1,500 hornbeam plants with designated spaces representing each county and Lough Neagh.
