Places to see
We live in a gorgeous part of the world with so many natural beauty spots, if you can, we recommend any of the following to see. Most places can only be reached by car, buses are not too frequent in October!
Murlough Bay
Where we got engaged 💍
Explore Fair Head
See the amazing coastline from the top of Fairhead cliff - one of our favourite places to take visitors!
Rathlin Island
You can get to Rathlin via the ferry - check the website for ferry times.
Kinbane Castle
Great spot for views, but be aware, there are very steep stairs!
Dunluce Castle
Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge car park
There is a fee to pay to walk down & cross the bridge.
Giants Causeway
Top tip - if travelling by car, park in the hotel carpark, get a cup of tea in there & you won't have to pay for parking! You also do not need to pay to walk down to the stones, if you do not go through the visitor centre.
