Attractions

Giant’s Causeway

For centuries visitors have marvelled at the majesty and mystery of the Giants Causeway. Its unique rock formations have, for millions of years, stood as a natural rampart against the ferocity of Atlantic storms and the rugged symmetry of the columns never fails to intrigue and inspire. To stroll on the Giants Causeway is to voyage back in time.

The Glens of Antrim & Cushendall

The Glens are an area of natural beauty. Within twenty or so square miles you can enjoy glacial valleys, sandy beaches, vertical cliffs, waterfalls and picturesque villages. One of these attractive villages, Cushendall, is located at the bottom of Ballyeamon, one of the famous nine glens and overlooked by the summits of Lurigethan and Tievebulliagh.

‘Old Bushmills’ Distillery

Only two miles from the Giant's Causeway ‘Old Bushmills’ is the world's oldest licensed whiskey distillery. King James I granted the original license in April 1608 and Bushmills has been making the finest Irish Malt Whiskey here for four hundred years. You will discover the secrets of whiskey production and enjoy a complimentary glass of the final product.
