Sightseeing

The most iconic landmark in the city and such a beautiful building. I recommend that you pop in and visit the main hall, it's free to visit and you will see the most magnificent pipe organ in the room and surrounded by some stunning stain glass windows. Ask the stewards about the stories behind the windows, they are so passionate and knowledgeable and always happy to chat.

My all time favourite spot in Northern Ireland. Just follow the Wild Atlantic Way all along the coast until you find it and you'll see why. Grwat stop off point on route to the Giant's Causeway.

An iconic place to see to understand the history of our town. I would recommend visiting it along with the Martin MC Crossan guided walking tour of the town. A fabulous walking tour of the city that's only £4. It leaves every day multiple times a day from the Foyleside Shopping Centre.

Food Scene

I may be a little biased, as I used to manage this restaurant for 4 years, but it has the best beers and burgers in town! And conveniently close to the house. You can order a "taster flight" of beers to sample three of the craft brews made right on site.

Again, another spot that is walking distance from the house and a fabulous place for food and great service. I'd recommend getting lots of small things and sharing. It's also bring your own drinks so stop by the off licence next door to grab a bottle of wine or a beer and have a cheap and cheerful meal.

A great spot if you're looking for somewhere a little more sophisticated to spend your evening. Service and food are always of a high standard.

Another spot that also has two locations in town. One is just a short walk from the house on Spencer Road and the other is right in the heart of town. Best pizza in town! They also do takeaway if you're looking to spend a cosy night in.
