Discover Ireland from La Mon

Nestled in the heart of County Down, just 15 minutes from Belfast city centre, La Mon Hotel & Country Club offers the perfect countryside escape with picturesque landscaped grounds—and a gateway to Northern Ireland’s top attractions.

Craving family fun? Head to Streamvale Farm, just around the corner, where little ones can meet friendly animals, enjoy tractor rides, and burn off energy at indoor and outdoor play zones. Venture to the Ards Peninsula and discover what swims in our shores at Exploris Aquarium—a must-see for curious little explorers and sea-life lovers alike. Experience Titanic Belfast, the birthplace of the world’s most famous ship, through interactive galleries and immersive storytelling, or step back in time at the Ulster Folk & Transport Museum.

Prefer a more relaxed pace? Explore nearby National Trust properties and gardens such as Mount Stewart, or take in the countryside by bike, cycling through rolling hills and scenic trails. Looking for something with a local flavour? Discover the craft of our renowned local distilleries, Shortcross and Hinch, and sample the best of what nature has to offer.

At the end of a fun-filled day, retreat to La Mon’s indoor pool and spa for some well-deserved relaxation, then gather at Charlie’s Bistro to enjoy seasonal, local food and drinks—perfect for refuelling and reminiscing about the day’s adventures.

Whether you're seeking adrenaline, culture, or simply a tranquil retreat to enjoy quality time together, Northern Ireland truly has something for everyone—and La Mon is the perfect base for your family’s next great adventure.
