Ards Forest Park, Forest park near Creeslough, Ireland.

Ards Forest Park is a forest park with several different landscape types near Creeslough. The grounds include sand dunes, beaches, salt marshes, freshwater lakes, rock formations, and woodland areas with oak and other trees.

Ards Forest Park was formerly part of the Ards Estate, purchased by Alexander Stewart in the 1780s and centred on Ards House, demolished in the early 1960s. The Stewart family held it until the early 1930s, the last owner being Lady Ena Stewart-Bam, who inherited around 1904. The park is now owned by Coillte, the state forestry body.

The name comes from the Ards Peninsula, a historic landscape in the region. Visitors can walk through different ecosystems that together create a varied natural environment.

The grounds have different paths of varying difficulty and are easy to explore on foot. Visitors should bring weatherproof clothing and choose different areas depending on the season.

The megalithic tombs in the park are linked by legend to Diarmuid and Gráinne, said to have slept in them while fleeing Fionn Mac Cumhaill; local tradition calls such stones the couple's beds.
