Its so very nice when you are arriving on this amazing estate. Its a bit confusion when you are coming for the first time because you have to go drive on the Golf course and at the end you are arriving on Killymoon Castle grounds. The view is breathtaking and the castle is so very beautiful. You have to go around the castle at the side entrance and its a strange entrance but soon you are landing 50 years back in time. Almost everything you see around you on display you can buy. I have been a view time for a High Tea and I have to say its one of the best I ever had. The owners of the ground and castle and the tearoom are so very friendly and they take the time to have a talk to you and tell you a bit of the history. I really love this place because it so very unique

Experience the adventure that takes you from the thatched cottages of Ulster, on board a full scale emigrant sailing ship, to the log cabins of the American Frontier. Immerse yourself in three centuries of Irish emigration at the museum that brings it to life. Meet costumed characters on your way with traditional crafts to show, tales to tell and food to share.

Our Illinois family greatly enjoyed the pictorial displays and the peaceful setting recreated around the actual house and homestead of Thomas Mellon. Of even greater interest was the list of Irish immigrants who were influential in every aspect of American life from the Revolutionary War to the present day. Several US Presidents have been direct descendants of Irish immigrants.

Ranfurly House Arts and Visitor Centre is the perfect starting point for an exploration of the Dungannon and Tyrone area. Located in the former Belfast Bank, a beautiful mid Victorian centrepiece at the heart of Dungannon town which provides the gateway to the medieval capital of Ulster, Hill of The O’Neill a site used by rulers, noblemen and armies as a stronghold to dominate the area, a place from which they could influence all of Ulster. At least two castles are thought to have been built on the site, as well as a grand manor house and a fortified town. A new glass viewing tower and event space recently opened in May 2016 affords the visitor a spectacular view from this most ancient site in Ulster. Glass panels on the lift to the top floor of the tower display artwork portraying the mythological history of Dungannon. From the top floor surrounded with glass the visitor can view seven of the nine counties of Ulster. It was from here the famous O’Neill dynasty utilised a stunning 360-degree view of the province of Ulster to rule Gaelic Ireland for over 300 years. The Ranfurly House Arts and Visitor centre has a multi-media exhibition narrating the Hill’s importance in Irish and European history, its links to the O’Neill’s and the subsequent Flight of the Earls and Plantation of Ulster. Ranfurly House has a fully staffed Tourism and Information Centre offering the following services for visitors to the Dungannon and Tyrone area: Range of information on the local area (including places to visit, places to eat, activities and accommodation) Gift, Crafts and local historical information Full access for disabled users Coffee Shop
