Strangford buzzing as film crew rolls in

24 March 2021

TELEVISION cameras rolled into Strangford last week.

The village was buzzing recently when a TV advert production company visited a well-loved local hostelry.

The recently refurbished Cuan bar and restaurant, is to star in new Tourism NI advert encouraging people to explore the region for staycations this year.

The Cuan’s customer experience and Business development manager, Michael Dune, said the visit was very welcome.

“The village was definitely buzzing with a film crew and it was great to be chosen to help represent the local area in what is likely to be a new TV advert,” he said.

“The attention was certainly very welcome as The Cuan changed hands last year but we haven’t been able to open since so the owner decided to do a major refurbishment which is almost complete. We are looking forward to re-opening again.”

He added that the restaurant and bar had all been extensively refurbished along with nine guest ensuite bedrooms including new bathrooms, furniture and décor with styling by local interior designer Suzanne Garuda.
