With summer coming – and vaccinations here – Ireland’s luxury country house properties are polishing glassware and plumping pillows for your return
We may not be able to take a romantic break just yet, but when we can, there is no better place to visit for an elite assortment of accommodation, including luxury country house hotels, than Northern Ireland.
If you are planning a break when Covid-19 restrictions allow, we’ve got two destinations to consider that are a home-from-home – and a lot more besides.
Top of many people’s list will be the elegant Ardtara Country House near Maghera in Co Derry. Luxurious from inception, the Victorian property was built by one of Northern Ireland’s wealthy linen barons and is in a picturesque setting amid woodlands and lakes.
