County Antrim boasts numerous attractions to suit all tastes. For anyone hoping for a peaceful break away from the bustle of city life, a trip to Rathlin Island could be just what the doctor ordered. The island is home to just 30 families, who maintain farming and fishing traditions. Boasting little more than a pub, a guesthouse, a café, a camping ground and a hostel, Rathlin Island is a quiet place with friendly locals and plenty of Irish hospitality. The stunning cliffs of Bull Point are home to large colonies of kittiwakes and the rare puffin.
