Activity Holidays in Northern Ireland

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.

    What our travellers are saying...

    The owner was very friendly and told us lots about the local history. All buildings and facilities are top notch, brand new and very well looked after. I would highly recommend a stay in the house or glamping options. Keep an eye out for all of the very nice woodcraft items. The seating area with BBQ is stunning. Also on offer were wood turning workshop's. Very authentic campsite to the area, well worth a visit!

    We stayed at here for two nights and didn’t want to leave. It’s the best campsite I have ever stayed at. Beautiful and modern kitchen with lots of dinning space. Large, modern showers all super clean and extremely well maintained. Toilets right beside the tent section of the campsite with hot running water. Beautiful scenery and countryside. Great play park for kids. The outdoor spaces are very well kept and looked after. Highly recommended!

    This place is beautiful beyond belief! An oasis of natural relaxation in the heart of the lovely Ring of Gullion!! Our third time staying here and it gets better every time...our kids are already lobbying us to book the next trip :) We spent an eggsellent Easter weekend in the cottage, with our kids not wanting to leave the site there was so much for them to enjoy, from the play park to feeding the donkeys and goat to riding the ‘drumlin expre

    Top tips for visiting Northern Ireland

    Giant’s Causeway – take the coastal path for stunning views of this UNESCO World Heritage Site, and leave early to avoid the larger crowds.

    Take a black cab in Belfast – Getting a black taxi tour is a great way to learn about Belfast’s culture, art and its unique history.

    Go to the pub – You would probably do it anyway, but make sure you leave time to try some traditional Irish breakfast food in a proper Irish pub.

    Venture beyond Belfast – Northern Ireland has some amazing cities, like Derry which has some incredible sites and culture of its own.
