Hiking in the nearby Sperrin Mountains unveils some of the most un-spoilt mountain scenery available in Ireland. If you prefer, the spectacular cliff and beach walks along the Antrim coast, including the World Heritage designated site of the Giant’s Causeway, are truly unique in their rugged beauty. Look for some unusual fossils in the streams around White Park bay. Northern Ireland boasts some of the most pleasing Houses and Gardens in the UK, from the impressive Mount Stewart to the beautifully detailed Ben Varden. If you desire to have some education while you admire the glories of these walks, homes and gardens, we can arrange for qualified guides to accompany you, and provide historical and cultural information that will greatly enhance your experience.
