Hillsborough Castle

4/5(2 reviews)

Grand Hillsborough Castle is the official residence for the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, and is where members of the British Royal Family customarily reside when in the country. In 1920, this 18th century Georgian manor was sold by the sixth Marquess of Downshire to the British government (it is not actually a castle and the name Hillsborough derives from the Hill family that built it, and the surrounding village). Since then, it has played host to numerous British and foreign dignitaries, including former President George W Bush.

On first impressions I was surprised that what I thought I’d booked was a hotel and had the usual expectations of a standard reception check-in. Only when I arrived it was apparent that it’s a self check in. You had to read 1 email to find the entrance code then find another with details of what ...
