Not only is The Meadows on the central and south Sperrin scenic route but we are close to everything you could possibly need for the perfect get away. If being sheltered in a nice spot basking in the sun with a babbling brook running by, talking a beautiful relaxing walk along the river taking in the scenic but tranquil farmland setting doesn’t do it for you then lucky there is a feast of close by activities that will keep you busy while you stay with us.

With walks, restaurants, bars, gyms, Ulster American folk park and the multiplex cinema to name a few just a few minutes’ drive away from The Meadows you will be spoilt for choice with things to do while you’re in the area. The Meadows is perfectly situated to go on a Giant adventure to discover our three Giants, Nawanois: The Story teller- Glenelly Valley ,Darach : The Guardian – Mullaghcarn mountain in The Gortin Glen Forest Park, and Ceoldán : The Stargazer – Davagh Forest Park where you can also go on a dark sky adventure at OM. The Sperrin Sculpture trail is a wonderful way to explore The Sperrins and take in it’s natural unspoilt beauty.
