And Beyond...
Reach out beyond the Causeway Coast, the Kingdoms of Down, Derry and Fermanagh and experience the vast array of what the remainder of Northern Ireland has to offer.
Armagh is the spiritual capital of Ireland and home to the most fantastic churches and cathedrals. The impressive buildings will leave you gasping as you marvel at the works of art. In keeping with the historical journey a short trip takes you to Navan Fort, the stronghold of the kings of Ulster from 700BC or why not take yourself to the Armagh Planetarium - truly 'out of this world'.
The Sperrin Mountains in Tyrone are another must. The mountains themselves are threaded by streams and small roads. The mountains take you to Omagh on one side with the famous Ulster American Folk Park and Cookstown on the other, host to the National Trust properties of Springhill and Wellbrook Beetling Mill. Tyrone also encompasses Strabane, the ancestral home of Woodrow Wilson, the 28th president of the United States.
And not to be missed are the areas of Craigavon - Craigavon itself, Portadown and Lurgan. Situated on the southern shores of Lough Neagh the area consists of a blend of town and country landscapes dotted with charming villages. A rich tapestry of lakeland and parks, one of which is Oxford Island - a National Nature Reserve. Discover the history, culture and wildlife of the Lough at the Lough Neagh Discovery Centre or indulge in a host of activities from shopping to water sports.
