About this property

Located at the heart of Ballymena in County Antrim, Northern Ireland is The Upper Room. This well-presented first-floor duplex apartment boasts an impressive central location next to the town’s shopping centre, character features such as high ceilings, exposed beams and a magnificent four metre high church style arched window, as well as contemporary decor and a state of the art Ananta full-body massage chair. This property welcomes up to four guests sleeping in two bedrooms, making it ideal for friends, couples or families looking to explore Ballymena and the rest of Northern Ireland. Enter into this beautiful abode and unwind in the spacious open-plan living area, settle on the sofas in front of the feature window and flick on the Smart TV; stay cosied up while the designated chef of the group rustles up a tasty meal for the whole group to enjoy at the large dining table. When the evening draws to a close, retire to either of the double rooms, one of which is a mezzanine room, both are serviced by a first-floor shower room and cloakroom. The Upper Room is conveniently located in the centre of the town near the Tower Centre shopping centre, home to an array of high street brands, and the Mid-Antrim Museum which displays the area’s history; you could also meander through People’s Park and Eco Park or walk alongside the Braid River. The city of Belfast is a short drive away from the property and is great for those seeking a more vibrant nightlife, visit Whites Tavern, Maddens or the Duke of York whiskey bar and many more; you can also brush up on local history at the Ulster Museum. Attractions such as the famous Giant’s Causeway, Dunseverick Castle and the National Trust’s Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge which boasts breathtaking sea views are just a short scenic drive from the Upper Room, as is Loughareema in Ballycastle which is better known as The Vanishing Lake. The Upper Room is a fantastic base for those looking to explore the wonders of Northern Ireland.

Ballymena is an old town situated between the more modern Ballymoney and the thriving city of Belfast. The town was established in the 17th century, and it has maintained its tradition of holding weekly Saturday markets, which attract a wide variety of merchants from the surrounding area. It is also home to the Mid-Antrim Museum, which features a theatre with seating for four hundred visitors in a modern glass structure. Walks along the Braid River and through People's Park are also popular activities for tourists. If you're in the mood for a night out and don't feel like cooking, you can choose from the town's many cafes, restaurants, and pubs like The Smoking Monkey Bar & Grill and The Blackstone Bar. Belfast, the capital, is conveniently located not far from town, and it is home to many fascinating historical sites, such as the Ulster Museum, the Titanic Museum, and the infamous Crumlin Road Gaol. You can also visit the nearby parks (Ormeau Park is bordered by the River Lagan, and Victoria Park is bordered by Conn's Water) and refuel at one of the many local eateries or bars including, Fountain Lane, Morning Star Bar & Restaurant, The Jailhouse, featuring live music.
