Northern Ireland

Historic houses, woodland trails, grand gardens and beautiful beaches, we care for the places you love to visit in Northern Ireland. From the eye-catching wonder of the Giant's Causeway to the spectacular gardens of Mount Stewart, visit places which are world-famous, world-class, local favourites and hidden gems.

Pockets of purple perfection are popping up across our places and spaces as beautiful bluebells begin to brighten our landscapes. The National Trust is one of the most important organisations in the conservation of bluebells. When it comes to spotting a bluebell bounty, we've got some of the top places to see the star of the spring show.

Log beams, rope swings and zip wires in the woods - fun family days out are a walk in the park with our places to play in Northern Ireland. Climb magical dragons and hide in willow huts on an action-packed adventure in our natural playgrounds near you. There's nothing quite like a wild time in nature to feed their imagination and learn through landscape.

With more people than ever enjoying our coast and countryside places, we’re asking for your help in looking after them during your visit. Please help us protect wildlife and landscapes by following the Countryside Code, which includes taking any litter home with you and not lighting a barbecue or campfire.

Volunteers are highly valued members of our team as they bring their time, skills, energy and passion to our places. If you want a rewarding experience, get involved and make a difference.
