Northern Ireland's Top Hotel Spas and Resorts
From Enniskillen to Belfast, in Antrim, Down, are 4- and 5-star spas
Jun 12, 2009
There was a time when the Troubles kept tourists away from Northern Ireland, but today some of the best spas in Europe are to be found here. They range from the Culloden estate at Holywood near Belfast in the east to the Radisson Roe Park Resort at Limavady in the north west of the country.
Others include the Galgorm resort and Spa in County Antrim, the Killyhevlin Hotel and Health Club and the Lough Erne Golf Resort, both near Enniskillen in County Fermanagh, and the Slieve Donard Resort and Spa in Newcastle in County Down. Facilities at these spas and resorts include award-winning restaurants, million-pound spas, acres of exhilarating Irish countryside, and championship golf courses including a new course from Nick Faldo.
