Now if I had any leave left I'd be on this deal straight away. Belfast and visiting some of the Game of Thrones filming locations! I love the idea of this with Belfast being one of my top recommendations for a city break too. I'm sure many of the HUKD folk from Northern Ireland can add in any extra places worth visiting too from their beautiful part of the world. This is a pretty jam packed itinerary and I know you could spend much longer than this amount of time but this gives you a good basis for what you can see and do. I've picked all ensuite accommodation that comes highly rated.

20-22nd April
After arriving in Belfast early morning you'll drive to your city centre hotel, the Etap for 2 nights. The Titanic museum and dock is well worth a visit along with many of Belfast's pubs and city centre attractions. If you wanted to head to 'Winterfell' then Castle Ward is just an hour away where you can grab a cuddle of the 'Direwolf' puppies Odin and Thor.

22-23rd April
You'll drive from Belfast towards the coast and stop off as often as you like en route, couple of places worth mentioning are Cairncastle where Ned Stark beheaded a Night’s Watch deserter and also known as Moat Cailin. Newtownabbey and Carrickfergus are well worth a visit as well as the cliff walk 'The Gobbins'. You'll head to Cushendall for an overnight stay at the Glenn Eireann in Cushendall.

23-24th April
Driving the route from Cushendall to Ballycastle there are many attractions. You have the Glencliff Forrest Park and some GOT locations, the Cushenden Caves where Lady Melisandre gave birth to the black shadow. There are also the 'dark hedges' (road to Kings Landing) and the beautiful Murlough Bay where Theon first met his sister. You could also take the short ferry over to Rathlin. You'll overnight in Ballintoy aka the Iron Islands nr Ballycastle. I've picked a 'hostel' called Steel Island but this is very highly rated and rooms have ensuite. As the name suggests you are surrounded by, well, sheep!

24-25th April
You'll drive from Ballycastle to Portrush today. Take a walk over the very high and nerve racking Carrick-a- Leeds rope bridge. No trip to Northern Ireland would be complete without a visit to the Giants Causeway and if it takes your fancy Bushmills! You'll overnight in Portrush at the Portrush Holiday Hostel but it has great reviews and rooms are ensuite.

25th April
You'll drive from Portrush to Derry for your flight home but as your flight isn't until later in the day you should have time for a quick explore of Downhill Strand with its seven-mile stretch of golden sands and Mussenden Temple. Drop car back at Derry.
