Newtownabbey, located just north of Belfast City , is the tourist gateway for visitors from Belfast heading for the Glens of Antrim and the Causeway Coast . Situated on the shores of Belfast Lough , motorway access to the nearby ferry ports and airports makes Newtownabbey an ideal choice for tourists.
Newtownabbey is within easy travelling distance of many of the North's top attractions. Activities in the area are in abundance because of the natural landscape and the town's proximity to the sea. The world class marina at Carrickfergus is just a few miles outside Newtownabbey and increasingly Belfast Lough is becoming a venue for international sailing events.
Locally, the Newtownabbey Boat Club at Jordanstown offers a range of courses and classes over the summer months.
On the other hand, Newtownabbey is also a great base for touring Belfast. Holiday and business visitors enjoy the semi-rural location whilst being near to the buzz and nightlife of Belfast city centre and its attractions.

Testimonials
"I just wanted to let you know our Ireland trip was fabulous!! Thank you so much! Your recommendation to Adare Manor was a top tip! I went to Ashford Castle as well, it was very very nice to, but my preference is still Adare Manor. I just wish that I had booked 2 nights there instead of just one. The B&Bs were TOP too! Especially the one in Kilkieren up in Galway. Barbara was lovely and couldn't have done more to make our stay memorable. The Hillside House is definately one you can recommend to anyone!" -- Silke
