County Armagh Northern Ireland | The Heartland Of Saint Patrick

County Armagh, nestled in the heart of Northern Ireland, holds a special place in the annals of Irish history and spirituality.

This charming county is often referred to as "The Heartland of Saint Patrick," and for good reason. It was here, in the rolling green hills and fertile landscapes of Armagh, that Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, left an indelible mark on the land and its people.

Join us on a journey to County Armagh, where the past and present merge to offer a glimpse into the life and legacy of Saint Patrick, all against a backdrop of stunning scenery and warm hospitality.

Experience of the day

Slieve League cliffs cruise. Donegal.

County Donegal is known for its striking coastal beauty, but to get the best views, it’s best to get out on the water. With this scenic cruise, see a variety of spectacular natural wonders in a short space of time. Travel from Killybegs Harbour towards the impressive Slieve League cliffs. Along the way, pass by St John’s Point lighthouses, Rotten Island, Fintra Bay, and Benbulbin in Sligo.
