Belfast Castle is a truly stunning place to visit. The building itself is absolutely beautiful, with its elegant architecture and rich history making it a standout landmark. The gardens are equally impressive, meticulously maintained and full of vibrant flowers, they are definitely worth exploring. Whether you’re there for a peaceful stroll or simply to admire the scenery, the combination of the castle and its gorgeous surroundings makes for a perfect day out. Highly recommend a visit!

We visited one evening but weren't able to enter as it was closed for a private event. However, we showed up the next morning and were delighted to explore the castle and its garden. The castle is free to visit and offers gorgeous views of Belfast's skyline on a clear day. We were only able to enter a few rooms and the ballroom on the ground floor in the castle. Keep an eye out for the various cat sculptures around the garden! There is also free parking on the premises. It would be great if updates could be posted on their website to notify the public when the castle is closed for private events.

Lovely place, nice garden and café. Didn't try the restaurant. The bits of the building we could freely visit made me curious to see the rest it. Maybe visitors would be willing to pay a little for this. I know I would.

It's a lovely castle to visit. It's for free. We couldn't do much because it was raining but in a nice weather, sitting in the gardens would be nice. There seems to be some walking trails around but we couldn't explore due to rain.

Well, what a place! A beautiful castle (aka Cat Castle) surrounded by fabulous countryside. We visited yesterday and enjoyed strolling around the carefully tended gardens bathed in sunshine. Apparently there are 9 cats in different mediums, from topiary to mosaics. I only spotted 3. There's not much to see in the castle but the views from the magnificent windows are fabulous. We lunched in the Cellar Restaurant which was very pleasant. The service was leisurely but we weren't in a hurry so it didn't matter. The staff were delightful and we thoroughly enjoyed chatting with them. All in all, a purrrfect day out ?
