  • You know this channel is never biased in the coverage of cities, towns, and villages in the United Kingdom. Consistent with that, we shift our attention to Northern Ireland in this video. This time we want to talk about the 10 best towns to live in Northern Ireland. Before we begin, we have to be quick in saying that towns in this region of the UK are generally cooler than those you would find near London, Manchester, Edinburgh, or Glasgow. However, it would be unfair to believe that they are less sophisticated. After all, towns in Northern Ireland are expected to be influenced by the cities nearby. We now invite you to pay more than usual attention to this video.
    10. Portstewart
    We feel so good beginning this in Portstewart. This is a small town in County Londonderry with a population of 8,003. It is a seaside resort beside Portrush. Portstewart has a good-looking harbor and scenic coastal paths that form an Atlantic promenade that leads to a two-mile beach popular with holidaymakers all year round, not just during summer. Victorian middle-class families are in love with this town as a holiday destination. It has a long, crescent-shaped seafront promenade that is sheltered by rocky headlands. Portstewart is a reasonably prosperous town. You can thus live there and make good fortunes. Most of it is contained in the Strand electoral ward which is counted as one of the most affluent areas in the region.
    9. Castlewellan
    Castlewellan is a small town in County Down. The town in the southeast of Northern Ireland is close to the Irish Sea and beside Castlewellan Lake and Slievenaslat Mountain. It is also 11 miles southwest of Downpatrick. The town was originally designed for the Annesley Family by a French architect. As one of the 10 best towns to live in Northern Ireland, it has a wide main street running through two main squares lined with chestnut trees. One of the beautiful features of this town is Drumena Cashel, a small stone-built farmstead enclosure situated two miles southwest of Castlewellan, off the A25 road to Rathfriland. Castlewellan Forest Park and Castlewellan Lake also deserve to be mentioned in this town. Though the Castlewellan Castle is not generally open to everyone, the sight of this Scottish baronial beautiful and tranquil castle of 1856 is enough to add flavor to each day of life in the town.
    8. Larne
    Larne is a town with a population of 18,755 on the east coast of County Antrim. This town is a major passenger and freight roll-on roll-off port administered by Mid- and East Antrim Borough Council. It is also a civil parish in the historic barony of Glenarm Upper. Larne rose from the lowest spot during the course of The Troubles to become one of the best places to live. The significant paramilitary presence in the town has ensured the safety of residents. The Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) and Ulster Defense Association (UDA) are helping to ensure that it sustains the peace for which it is presently known.
    7. Newtownards
    Also in County Down is Newtownards, a town lying at the most northern tip of Strangford Lough. Located on the Ards Peninsula, it’s just 10 miles east of Belfast in the civil parish of Newtownards. The town with a population of 28,050 is beautified by the 100-foot Scarbo Tower overlooking it and built as a memorial to Charles Stewart, the third Marquess of Londonderry in 1857. It also has Movilla Abbey, Somme Heritage Center toward the north which is a unique attraction of international significance telling the historical reality of the Great War including its effects on the community at home.

    I really think you should rethink your comments about Larne. Apart from the fact that the place is a total dump and no sensible person would ever contemplate going within a mile of the place, your mentioning that it is controlled by two terrorist organisations is hardly an irresistible factor. Larne is a horrible uninviting place with paramilitary undertones, best avoided unless you're catching the Ferry to Scotland.

    Welcoming atmosphere in Ballycastle.
    That is not true.
    I have experienced sectarian abuse from the locals there on a number of occasions.
    Not very welcome if you are of one religion.
