An excellent introduction to the life and work of Seamus Heaney. Really interesting exhibition, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and great local refreshments available in the coffee shop. All social distancing measures in place including one way system and lots of sanitiser but does not take away from the experience at all.

About 20 miles from Bellamena. Technically Northern Ireland or United Kingdom, not Ireland but that was not an option on the drop down menu.
10. Springhill House

Reviewed By myselfandmypeople - Belfast, United Kingdom
My wife and I visited Springhill a few years ago and had a lovely visit, but the house wasn’t open that day. We finally found ourselves in the area again, with our 2 little people aged 2 and 5 with us this time. On arrival we went straight to the cafe and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We were just sitting eating when the lady at the reception desk approached us and said would we like the last 4 tickets for the upcoming house tour. Now, as members of the NT we’ve done almost everything in NI, but house tours with toddlers can be pretty stressful, and the Mt Stewart one was frankly less than encouraging towards little people. We took the plunge and when she gave us the tickets she asked the children to help, make sure the adults don’t touch anything!! She got them hooked! So we got in the house, the kids were firstly, acknowledged in a positive way, and welcomed. They were given little sheets of paper and as we’ve moved from room to room on the tour, they had to find a little fluffy animal in each room. This seemed to immediately put the kids at ease, and therefore they felt included and engaged. We had no ‘touching the exhibit” issues whatsoever. The guide was interesting and engaging. The rest of the grounds are beautiful and we had a lovely wander. There is also a little dressing up room for the kids too which entertained and informed them beautifully. This place is set up for adults and kids alike, I wish the weather had been a bit warmer that day as we would’ve walked more but no matter. We’ll be back Springhill! Thank you!
