17th-century house with elegant 18th-century decoration and a traditional farmyard
Ardress sits in the heart of Armagh’s rich apple-growing country. Visit in October on our Apple Sundays and have a go at apple pressing, meet the local apple farmers and cider producers and enjoy a variety of activities that celebrate apple harvest time. You can also enjoy an apple tea in the barn.
This charming 17th-century farmhouse, elegantly remodelled in Georgian times, offers fun and relaxation for all the family.
Set in 40 hectares (100 acres) of countryside there are apple orchards, charming woodland and riverside walks.
The atmosphere of a working farmyard has been rekindled with the return of small animals.

If the place runs Gift Aid on Entry, we'll offer you a clear choice between the Gift Aid Admission prices and the Standard Admission prices at the admission point. It's entirely up to you which ticket you choose.
Gift Aid Admission includes a 10 per cent or more voluntary donation. Gift Aid Admissions let us reclaim tax on the whole amount paid - an extra 25 per cent - potentially a very significant boost to our places' funds.
An extra £1 paid under the scheme can be worth over £3 to the National Trust as shown below:
