Overview

Northern Ireland may be small but its potential for unique getaway is mighty. Located in the north-east of the island of Ireland, it’s a small country which is part of the UK and full of fantastic hidden gems all within close range of each other. 

Don’t be fooled by the size – it really does pack it all in with a little something to suit every taste. Dramatic landscapes? Check. Long-stretches of beaches and coastlines? Yep. Welcoming locals? You bet. Not to mention the incredible Causeway Coastal Route, a 33-mile long stunning coastal path and recognised UNESCO World Heritage Site.There’s no doubt that Northern Ireland is an outdoor playground for adults and kids alike. Hike one of the many beautiful trails or explore the waters of Country Down in a kayak. This way you’ll get to visit scenery that has inspired so many artists.

Our unique getaways in Northern Ireland are a great way to escape the everyday and begin a truly beautiful adventure.
