If that’s not enough…

Belfast is a vibrant city with a rich history and is a great place for shops, restaurants, and nights out.  Set on the shores of Belfast Lough and framed by the towering cave hill, it also has easy access to our fabulous coastal areas, the Mourne mountains, and if you are willing to venture a little further the Fermanagh lakes and beyond to Donegal. Plenty to explore in the evenings and weekends.
