Ulster
AN INTRODUCTION
The northern-most province of Ulster boasts a huge selection of the finest golf courses to be found … not just on the island of Ireland , but also the world . Straddling two countries , Ulster offers a wide variety of activities and sights . Belfast , the island ’ s second largest city , has a rich history and culture , being the location of Harland and Wolff shipbuilders ( of Titanic fame ), the stunning City Hall , and a vibrant nightlife . The city offers over 20 highly ranked-courses within a short driving distance , and both Malone and Belvoir Park are tucked away in its suburbs .
The Northern Irish coastline , spanning over 200km , is drenched in stunning natural beauty , with many untouched beaches - 10 of which have received the UK-wide Seaside Award . Also on this coastline lies the Giant ’ s Causeway , in Co . Antrim . This World Heritage Site is not to be missed and its hexagonal basalt columns have been attracting visitors for years . Easily accessible from Belfast is Lough Neagh , the largest freshwater lake in the UK or Ireland . It is steeped in mystery and folklore , which could even describe the golf courses of Royal Portush and Portstewart , which plays over dunes known as God ’ s Own Country .
