The County Derry region

County Derry, officially know as Londonderry, is perched on the northwest coast of Northern Ireland. Covering an area of some 798 square miles, the Derry landscape is varied and breathtaking. To the south are the forested glens of the Sperrin Mountains while to the north and east is the spectacular coastline of Benone Strand, Ireland's longest beach, 7 miles of wide-open sand and surf.

Derived from the Irish 'Doire' meaning oak grove, Derry has long been a sacred place for early Celtic and Christian settlements. In the 6th century, the Irish Saint Columba founded a monastery beside the River Foyle in 546 AD, where the oak tress grew. The City walls of Derry are amongst the best preserved fortifications in Europe. The layout of the city reflects the original town plan set out several hundred years ago. In 1609, an agreement was made with the Corporation of London for the rebuilding of Derry, hence the introduction of the name Londonderry.

Derry has some fine architecture across the County including the Georgian town of Limavady and the folly overlooking Downhill Strand, Mussenden Temple, built by the eccentric Earl Bishop of Derry. Other cultural attractions include Bellaghy Bawn, a 17th century enclosure, containing a permanent exhibition on the locally born, Nobel laureate poet, Seamus Heaney. The Earhart Centre at Ballyarnet commemorates where Amelia Earhart (the first woman to fly the Atlantic solo) brought her plane down in 1932. The first recording of 'Londonderry Air' was by Jane Ross in 1851, which was later affectionately known as 'Danny Boy'.

Visitors to Derry can also enjoy a multitude of outdoor activities from first-class golf to hill walking and excellent river angling. Roe Valley Country Park near Limavady is a superb place for salmon and trout fishing, canoeing, rock climbing and walking through miles of magnificent, preserved woodlands.

The Castlerock area

Castlerock is a quiet, unspoilt sea-side village, ideal for a relaxing family holiday beside the sea. It is situated on the North Coast of Ireland and is in an area of outstanding natural beauty with many scenic walks locally. It is ten minutes drive from Coleraine which has a vast array of shops to cater for all interests and the world renowned Antrim Coastline is only a few minutes drive away.

“Best holiday rental ever” We initially stayed in this property in June 2010 and had such a wonderful time we went back at Easter this year. We had an even better stay this time round. The weather was out of this world.... more

“Great for Families” I stayed in Castleshaw in May this year. We wanted a good sc accommodation that had a good location for a family of 2 Adults and 2 very active boys we found it great. The accommodation has 3 good sized bedrooms and is spotlessly clean it has everything you could possibly need or want. Freeview, DVD player and broadband connection kept the kids happy. The family that own accommodation are very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. Highly recommended and we will hopefully return next year.

“Spacious, clean house with every requirement including Broadband.” Great house in a quiet cul de sac location. Handy to beach and shop. Home from home with every requirement including wifi Broadband and Freeview TV. Comfortable and cosy. Friendly and helpful owners who saw to our every need. House looks small but is in fact very spacious. Exceeded our expectations for a family of 5. Beautiful sandy beaches close by in this small friendly village. If only we had control of the weather - we had a few wet days during our stay but when the sun was out it was glorious.

“Spotlessly clean, warm and welcoming, home from home!” My wife and I are 'pensioners', and in our time have had many, many holidays, this is without doubt, the very best holiday home one could wish for. We stayed there during September 2010. We returned, June 2011, we are returning again, August 2011, and with Gods help will be there again mid September. On arrival we were warmly welcomed, and shown around the home, accompanied by friendly chat, we were given contact numbers in case of later questions, and the house could in no way be improved upon. The only thing we brought were clothes, everything else was supplied, except food, and even then we were given lists of local shops, take-aways, and delivery parlours. I wish I had found this place ten years ago!
